TS04 Axial Metallized Film Capacitors: Polyester and Polypropylene Comparison

Series Overview

The TS04 series includes axial metallized film capacitors available in cycloidal and oval structures.
Both polyester and polypropylene dielectric materials are offered to support different electrical and thermal requirements.

Electrical Specifications (Polyester – Axial – Cycloidal)

• Operating temperature: -40°C to +105°C
• Capacitance range: 0.033?F to 68?F
• Capacitance tolerance: J (±5%), K (±10%)
• Rated voltage: DC 100V, 250V, 400V, 630V
• Withstand voltage: 1.6UR 2s (1.5UR 5s)

Series Classification

• TS04A → Metallized Polyester Film Capacitor – Axial – Cycloidal → CL19
• TS04B → Metallized Polyester Film Capacitor – Axial – Oval → CL20
• TS04C → Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor – Axial – Cycloidal → CBB19
• TS04D → Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor – Axial – Oval → CBB20

Polyester vs. Polypropylene Material Characteristics

• Polyester: higher temperature capability, smaller size, lower cost, higher dissipation factor (DF)
• Polypropylene: lower temperature characteristic, larger volume, higher cost, lower dissipation factor (DF)

Applications

• Signal coupling circuits
• Power supply filtering
• General electronic equipment
• Industrial control systems

Design Considerations

• Select dielectric material according to DF and frequency requirements
• Verify rated voltage and withstand voltage based on DC operating conditions
• Consider mechanical size and axial mounting compatibility
• Evaluate thermal environment relative to operating temperature range
