  Specification Summary

  Characteristics

Dielectric Strength

Capacitors withstand a DC potential of 1.3 x rated 

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

down. Test voltage is applied and discharged through 

a minimum resistance of 1 OHM per volt minimum.

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

3.0μF to 40.0μF

Capacitance Tolerance

Standard capacitance tolerance is ±10%.
5%, 2% upon special request

Operating Temperature Range

-55°C to +85°C 

Enclosure/Construction

Metalized unlytic polypropylene potted in a thermoplastic housing.  
Terminals are solder coated copper.
RoHS compliant

Voltage Rating

600 VDC to 2400 VDC

Quality Control

Capacitors are tested 100% for:

 

• Capacitance

 

• Tolerance

 

• Dissipation Factor

 

• Dielectric withstanding voltage

 

• Insulation Resistance

 

• Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR)

Process and inspection data are maintained on file and available

upon special request.

CAPACITANCE

Last 3 characters represent capacitance to 1 significant digit.  035 = 35.0µF

Marking And Date Code

All capacitors are marked with company initials "EC", corporate logo or EC trademark—in addition to type UP38, 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.

UNLYTIC

®

 technology provides a dry film solution for electrolytic capacitor replacement, offering ten (10) times the current 

density and three (3) times the over voltage protection.  For safety, eliminates the possibility of caustic electrolyte leakage 

and its harmful effects to the environment.

This capacitor is designed for switching power supplies where high voltages at elevated temperatures are needed.  The 

component is designed to perform under conditions of high peak current and dv/dt without impact to long term reliability.  The 

housing has integrated standoffs molded in.  They help to support the component to withstand elevated shock and vibration 

conditions.
