The FA series is an OS-CON
TM
series with higher capacitance values than the older CFM series. The
low ESR, high ripple current capability and small size make these capacitors ideal for use in low
profile DC-DC converters and also for stereo and video recorder applications. These capacitors can
be used in filter circuits of switching power supplies and also for noise limiters.
The FA series capacitors are solvent proof. Refer to the Mini-Glossary for cleaning guidelines and
recommended cleaning agents that are compatible with United Chemi-Con products.

A
Suffix A indicates
Ø
10 5 case size products and is also used to
identify one part from another when two capacitors have the same
capacitance value and rated voltage.
Capacitance Tolerance: M = 20% or
K = 10% (optional for
Ø
6.3,
Ø
8 and
Ø
10)
Capacitance Value: Expressed in Microfarads. An R indicates a
decimal point (e.g. 2R2 = 2.2 F ).
Series Name: Indicates Basic Capacitor Design.
DC Rated Voltage: Expressed in Volts (e.g. 10 = 10WVDC).
Note: Prefix code 6 indicates 6.3WVDC products.
When ordering, always specify complete catalog number for FA Series.
