  Specification Summary

  Characteristics

Dielectric Strength

Capacitors withstand a DC potential of 120% rated 

voltage for one (1) minute without damage or break-

down. Test voltage is applied and discharged through 

a resistance of 1 OHM per volt minimum, and at 

25°C.

Dissipation Factor

Polypropylene has an intrinsic dissipation factor of 

less than 2.1x 10-4 over the operating temperature 

range of -55°C to +105°C and frequencies to 1MHz.

Capacitance Range

2.0μF to 85.0μF

Capacitance Tolerance

Standard capacitance tolerance is ±5%.

Operating Temperature Range

-55°C to +85°C (+105°C upon special request)

Enclosure/Construction

Polyester tape wrap with potted endfill

Voltage Rating

500 VDC to 3000 VDC

CAPACITANCE IN PICOFARADS

The first two digits are significant, the third represents the number of zeros

(e.g 356=350,000,000pF) 

Marking And Date Code

All capacitors are marked with company initials "EC", corporate logo or EC trademark—in addition to type UP2, capacitance, tolerance, rated 

DC working voltage and date code. The first two digits of the date code represent the year, the second two digits the week, i.e., 1252 is the 

52nd week of 2012, 1202 is the second week of 2012.

Quality Assurance

Major emphasis is placed on quality assurance. EC is an ISO 9001 and AS9100 Certified Company. Raw material inspection and the use of 

SPC manufacturing procedures assure the highest quality standards. Procedures are fully described in the EC Quality Control Manual. 

Electronic Concepts will continue to advance the state-of-the-art by utilizing leading edge technology, compact capacitor designs and 

establishing reliability procedures.

The UP2 is an Unlytic polypropylene in an oval polyester wrap with potted end fill.  Terminals are RoHS compliant tin plated 

copper.
