C3040H393KGGWCT050

KEMET’s Industrial Grade Pulse Discharge Series surface mount capacitors in C0G Dielectric deliver reliable high voltage and high temperature performance required for operation in harsh environments, specifically discharge circuitry. Constructed of a robust and proprietary base metal electrode (BME) dielectric system, these devices offer industry-leading performance relative to capacitance and case size. KEMET Pulse Discharge capacitors average greater than 30% higher breakdown voltage than competitive precious metal electrode (PME) devices with similar capacitance & voltage ratings. Designed for down-hole oil exploration and perforation, these devices feature a 200°C maximum operating temperature. The C0G dielectric is a Class I material. Components of this classification are temperature compensating and are suited for resonant circuit applications or those where Q and stability of capacitance characteristics are required. Pulse Discharge series capacitors in C0G dielectric exhibit no change in capacitance with respect to time and voltage and boast a negligible change in capacitance with reference to ambient temperature. These devices retain high insulation resistance with low dissipation factor at elevated temperatures up 200°C. KEMET’s Pulse Discharge surface mount MLCCs are manufactured in state-of-the-art ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified facilities and are proven to function reliably in harsh, high temperature and high humidity, down-hole environments.
