Type SF Lighting Capacitors, 90 °C Rated, Oil Filled
AC Rated, Oil Filled/Impregnated, Metallized Polypropylene Capacitors
For better performance in HID Lighting and HV Ballasts, Type SF oval
and round oil filled metallized polypropylene lighting capacitors are
built for operating in the high temperature environments for high
intensity discharge (HID) lighting and other high voltage ballast
applications. Each HID catalog capacitor includes an external resistor
that discharges the capacitor to less than 50V in one minute, and the
oil filled process assures better reliability than dry capacitors.
