About this manual

The PM series offers aluminum electrolytic capacitors ranging from 0.47 µF to 15000 µF with a ±20 % tolerance. The series is designed for high reliability, meeting RoHS requirements and supporting rated voltages from 6.3 V up to 100 V (higher voltages for larger case sizes).\n\nTechnical data include temperature operating limits of –55 °C to +105 °C, detailed impedance and ripple current specifications, leakage‑current formulas, and dimensional tables for various case sizes. The document also outlines marking conventions and shelf‑life testing procedures.

Frequently asked questions

What is the rated voltage range for PM series capacitors?

The PM series capacitors are rated for voltages from 6.3 V up to 100 V.

What temperature range can the PM series operate in?

They can operate from –55 °C to +105 °C.

How is leakage current limited after applying rated voltage for one minute?

For capacitors ≤1000 µF, leakage current is limited to I = 0.1 C·V + 40 µA (whichever is greater).
