RS PRO Polypropylene Film Capacitor, 440V ac, ±10%, 1.5μF, Screw Mount

RS PRO 1.5 μF Polypropylene Capacitor PP 440 V AC ±10% Tolerance Screw MountUse this RS PRO capacitator to help spin single-phase induction motors. Suited to AC voltage, it works by providing a jolt of stored energy to the motor once it has started. Two very thin layers of aluminium film covered in a polyurethane flame-retardant resin make up this polypropylene capacitator (PP). This insulated film gives the component the capacity to be self-healing through any weak points, which also absorb currents in case of a power surge. If this does occur, the metallised surface will melt, producing a vapour that insulates the weak spot and letting the capacitator carry on working normally. Its suitable for screw mounting and has a capacitance of 1.5 μF. This product is typically found in the motors of domestic electrical appliances. It is British, European and ISO 9001-2008 quality approved.Features and Benefits• Screw-mounting PP (polypropylene) capacitor • Dissipation factor of 0.15% • Capacitance of 1.5 μF • PLYP dielectric type • Length of 56 mm • Diameter of 30 mm • Operating temperature range of -25°C to +85°C • BS, EN ISO 9001-2008 approved • RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliantRS PRORS PRO is our own brand range and brings you a wide range of high-quality, great value products offering you more choice.
