SME Series
n
The SME series capacitors are our standard general purpose capacitors. These radial lead capacitors
are available in a wide range of voltage and capacitance ratings and are designed for a load life of
2,000 hours at 85&C with an operating temperature range of !40&C to ~85&C.
The SME series capacitors, except for those rated at 350-450 volts, 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.
