Detailed Specifications For Series KRG
• Miniature
• Low Profile
• Solvent Proof
• +105°C Maximum Temperature

The KRG series capacitors are designed for low profile applications. These miniaturized capacitors have case sizes from 4 x 7mm to 18 x 25mm, enabling a large range of capacitance values while maintaining a lower profile than standard general purpose capacitors. The KRG capacitors are also ideal because they can be used over a wide temperature range, -55°C to +105°C.

The KRG series capacitors were developed to withstand HCFC cleaning agents for five minutes by ultrasonic, vapor or immersion. This solvent proof design allows all circuit board components to be cleaned together, at the same time, without resorting to more expensive epoxy end-sealed capacitors. Refer to the Mini-Glossary for recommended cleaning conditions.
