In past times Suntan X2 capacitors win good fame in market, to fulfill various demands, in the early of 2011, TS08S was launched !

Bright yellow box type with different approvals and Red Suntan logo shows more attractive outer appearance, a special point you could find from pictures is cULus mark which means this approval is for both Canada & USA.

TS8S wons folloing features :

1.Rated at 275 Volts AC for use in USA, Canada and world-wide.

2.Provides interference suppression with cULus.VDE, CE safety approvals.

3.Dielectric Strength:1200 VDC for 60sec.

4.High dv/ dt capabilities

5. ideal for line-by-pass, antenna coupling, accross-the-line available for EMI filter, switching power supply, radio application

6.Operating temperature rang-40ºC~+100ºC, capacitance range from 1000pF - 2.2uF, special value can be customized.

The strongpoint for this X2 at present is close to inventory delivery & more competitive prices.

Sufficient raw materials for standard values have been prepared,

L/T is just 3 weeks for bulk order under 300kpcs for P:15mm or 10mm, while 5 weeks for larger Pitches.

Even only 7 weeks for some special values and customized items.

Samples are open and worth for testing, even most of in stocks or could be get ready in short time.

Following fresh stock items in July for reference:

200kpcs - 0.1 uF 275VAC +/-10% P:15mm

100kpcs - 0.22uF 275VAC +/-10% P:15mm

Smaller quantity for various values are available for inventory delivery

Technical department are ready here to provide further technical information and sales at Suntan are waiting for new inquiry.

Thank you for your attention!

Suntan offers Plastic Film Capacitors which are the key components of power supply units. Plastic Film Capacitors help suppress interference and simultaneously decouple semiconductors or are used as DC link capacitors. Suntan Plastic Film covers a wide range of capacitance and voltage, matching a various applications such as HID lamp, photo flash, engine control unit and LCD backlight. All products are environmentaly conscious and comply with RoHs directive.

A capacitor constructed by stacking, or forming into a roll, alternate layers of foil and a dielectric which consists of a plastic, such as polystyrene or Mylar, either alone or as a laminate with paper.Plastic film capacitors help suppress interference and simultaneously decouple semiconductors or are used as DC link capacitors.

Suntan have 4 types of Axial Film Capacitors, they are differ with different material and different body style.

Suntan have Metallized Polyester Film Capacitor with Cycloidal & Oval body style and Metallized Polypropylene Film Capacitor with Cycloidal & Oval body style also.

The temperature can up to 105'C at most.

They are mainly used in different instruments, DC & AC circuit of the household equipment and the fractional frequency circuit of acoustics system.

In these devices, polystyrene film is used as the dielectric. This type of capacitor is not for use in high frequency circuits, because they are constructed like a coil inside. They are used well in filter circuits or timing circuits which run at several hundred KHz or less.

The component shown on the left has a red color due to the copper leaf used for the electrode. The silver color is due to the use of aluminum foil as the electrode.

• The device on the left has a height of 10 mm, is 5 mm thick, and is rated 100pF.
• The device in the middle has a height of 10 mm, 5.7 mm thickness, and is rated 1000pF.
• The device on the right has a height of 24 mm, is 10 mm thick, and is rated 10000pF.
• These devices have no polarity.

Suntan has specially developed a new series of X2 capacitors TS08S series with metalized polypropylene films for interference suppression. These capacitors are designed for voltages of 275VAC, specified for temperatures from -40 to +100 °C, capacitance range extended from 1 nF to 2.2 µF, or customized as requested. This new X2 series provide interference suppression with CE & TUV and UL safety approvals. Their Typical applications include power supplies of all types, lamp ballasts and EMC filters.

Currently TS08S is Suntan strong promoting product, with our best support always. Welcome to send new inquiries from our old and new customers!

Suntan X2 Metallized Polyester Film Capacitors are an excellent choice for a wide range of electrical applications. One of the most important features of a quality film capacitor is the purity of the film. Every X2 capacitor is manufactured with high purity DuPont film, to insure a higher level of performance when compared to our competitors. Most of our competitors are using a low grade of Chinese film in their metallized polyester caps. Great care is taken during the manufacturing process to insure tight winding of the foil to prevent microphonic distortion and tight tolerances. These X2 metallized polyester film caps are perfect for crossover networks and are a higher quality alternative to non polar caps.

Suntan X2 Metallized Polyester Film Capacitors are Lead Free (RoHS Compliant) and available in many stocked and un-stocked values.

Very low losses, low dielectric absorption, high dielectric strength, very high insulation resistance, and negative temperature coefficient.

Typical applications: Stable oscillators and flters. Sample & hold circuits, pulse handling circuits, AC applications and mains fltering.

Plastic Film Capacitors with the high withstand-current performance of the conventional capacitors for photo flashes are used now widely for general appliances, industrial equipment, digital equipment, automotive electrical components, and hybrid cars which are required to offer high reliability and long life.

Suntan Plastic film capacitors for demanding requirements are available with Green Polyester Film Capacitor, Metallized Polyester Film Capacitor, Mini BOX metallized Film Capacitor, X2 Capacitor, Metallized Polyester Film Capacitor and Polystyrene Film Capacitor etc

In the case of film and foil types, the electrode is not applied as for the metallized capacitors, but is wound with the dielectric as a metal foil. Due to their lower series resistance, the components produced this way have excellent pulse and current carrying capability, as well as a very high insulation resistance

A thermocouple must be attached to the capacitor body as in:

The temperature is measured in unloaded (Tamb) and maximum loaded condition (TC).
The temperature rise is given by ΔT = TC - Tamb.
To avoid radiation or convection, the capacitor should be tested in a wind-free box.
