Medium Power Film Capacitors
FLC (RoHS Compliant)
The FLC series uses a non-impregnated metallized
polypropylene dielectric specially treated to have a very high
dielectric strength in operating conditions up to 85°C.
The FLC has been designed for printed circuit board mount-
ing. They are suitable for output AC filtering for power con-
verters, UPS systems, solar inverters and motor drives etc.
APPLICATIONS
• The FLC capacitor is particularly designed for AC filtering.
See Hot Spot Temperature, page 66.
PACKAGING MATERIAL
• Self-extinguishing plastic case
(V
0
= in accordance with UL 94) filled thermosetting resin.
• Self-extinguishing thermosetting resin
(V
0
= in accordance with UL 94).

LIFETIME EXPECTANCY
One unique feature of this technology (as opposed to alu-
minum electrolytics) is how the capacitor reacts at the end of
its lifetime.
Unlike aluminum electrolytic film capacitors do not have a
catastrophic failure mode. Film capacitors simply experience
a parametric loss of capacitance of about 5% from initial
value, with no risk of short circuit.
The capacitor continues to be functional even after this 5%
decrease.

* Insert K for 10% capacitance tolerance (standard); J (+5%) and M (+20%) tolerances available on request.
Values outside this standard range may be available – please contact AVX for any special requirements.
AVX reserves the right to supply capacitors to a tighter capacitance tolerance or higher voltage rating, in the same case size.
