The composition of Suntan TS08H Radial X2 Safety Film Capacitor is generally composed of five parts: medium, electrode, shell, package and pin. The medium of TS08H Class X2 Safety Capacitor is generally composed of polypropylene film. The electrode is composed of a metal vacuum evaporation layer. The shell is made of flame retardant PBT (UL94V-0).

Suntan TS08H Safety Standard Capacitor is used to suppress common mode interference, the general use of metallized film capacitor. When the capacitor fails, it will not cause electric shock and will not endanger personal safety. Suntan TS08H MPX Safety Standard Capacitor has VDE and UL approvals, so you don’t worry about the quality of our products. If you want to know more about details, please visit our website, or consult with our sales representatives.

The volume of the capacitor increases as the capacitance increases, the capacitance values in uF unit is rarely to see on the surface of the TS08H Class X2 EMI/RFI Film Capacitor. So you are supposed to convert the unit of capacitance. 

Capacitance common conversion formula is as follows for example,
101=100pF
102=1000pF=1nF=0.001uF
103=10000pF=10nF=0.01uF
104=100000pF=100nF=0.1uF
105=100nF=1uF
106=10uF
Capacitance tolerance: J = ± 5%, K = ± 10%, M = ± 20%

If you still do not understand, you can consult Suntan sales women, we will be eager to help you solve every problem!

As you know, TS08H MPX Safety Film Capacitor’s surface area is too small to mark too much information, so Suntan will adopt some abbreviation to mark on the surface. Let me tell you more details about the abbreviation.

It marks trademark “Suntan”, model series TS08H and the UL, VDE approval logo. 
“310V ~” means voltage rating, and “ ~ ” is alternating current circuit. 
40/105/56 is climatic category. “B” means passive flammability category.
In Class X2 Capacitor, 2 is the capacitor safety level (over voltage level) is two. 
The Capacitance value should convert to Code too. Such as 1uF will convert to Code 105
Capacitance Tolerance Code J = ± 5% , K = ± 10%, M = ± 20% . 
Suntan VDE certificate number is 40046769, and UL certificate number is E344971.

Do you know clearly after my introduction? Suntan can provide the free samples for you, you can choose the suitable capacitance and ask our sales women for it.

A capacitor's storage potential, or capacitance, is measured in units called farads. A 1-farad capacitor can store one coulomb (coo-lomb) of charge at 1 volt. A coulomb is 6.25e18 (6.25 * 10^18, or 6.25 billion billion) electrons. One amp represents a rate of electron flow of 1 coulomb of electrons per second, so a 1-farad capacitor can hold 1 amp-second of electrons at 1 volt.

A 1-farad capacitor would typically be pretty big. It might be as big as a can of tuna or a 1-liter soda bottle, depending on the voltage it can handle. For this reason, capacitors are typically measured in microfarads (millionths of a farad).

To get some perspective on how big a farad is, think about this:

• A standard alkaline AA battery holds about 2.8 amp-hours.
• That means that a AA battery can produce 2.8 amps for an hour at 1.5 volts (about 4.2 watt-hours -- a AA battery can light a 4-watt bulb for a little more than an hour).
• Let's call it 1 volt to make the math easier. To store one AA battery's energy in a capacitor, you would need 3,600 * 2.8 = 10,080 farads to hold it, because an amp-hour is 3,600 amp-seconds.

If it takes something the size of a can of tuna to hold a farad, then 10,080 farads is going to take up a LOT more space than a single AA battery! Obviously, it's impractical to use capacitors to store any significant amount of power unless you do it at a high voltage.

Applications

The difference between a capacitor and a battery is that a capacitor can dump its entire charge in a tiny fraction of a second, where a battery would take minutes to completely discharge. That's why the electronic flash on a camera uses a capacitor -- the battery charges up the flash's capacitor over several seconds, and then the capacitor dumps the full charge into the flash tube almost instantly. This can make a large, charged capacitor extremely dangerous -- flash units and TVs have warnings about opening them up for this reason. They contain big capacitors that can, potentially, kill you with the charge they contain.

Capacitors are used in several different ways in electronic circuits:

• Sometimes, capacitors are used to store charge for high-speed use. That's what a flash does. Big lasers use this technique as well to get very bright, instantaneous flashes.
• Capacitors can also eliminate ripples. If a line carrying DC voltage has ripples or spikes in it, a big capacitor can even out the voltage by absorbing the peaks and filling in the valleys.
• A capacitor can block DC voltage. If you hook a small capacitor to a battery, then no current will flow between the poles of the battery once the capacitor charges. However, any alternating current (AC) signal flows through a capacitor unimpeded. That's because the capacitor will charge and discharge as the alternating current fluctuates, making it appear that the alternating current is flowing.

In the next section, we'll look at the history of the capacitor and how some of the most brilliant minds contributed to its progress.

Variable capacitors are mostly used in radio tuning circuits and they are sometimes called 'tuning capacitors'. They have very small capacitance values, typically between 100pF and 500pF (100pF = 0.0001µF). The type illustrated usually has trimmers built in (for making small adjustments - see below) as well as the main variable capacitor.

Many variable capacitors have very short spindles which are not suitable for the standard knobs used for variable resistors and rotary switches. It would be wise to check that a suitable knob is available before ordering a variable capacitor.

Variable capacitors are not normally used in timing circuits because their capacitance is too small to be practical and the range of values available is very limited. Instead timing circuits use a fixed capacitor and a variable resistor if it is necessary to vary the time period.
