P409CE104M275AH220

Overview

The KEMET P409CE104M275AH220 is a radial leaded film capacitor designed for safety applications. It features a capacitance of 100 nF with a tolerance of ±20%. The component is rated for 275 VAC and 630 VDC, utilizing metallized paper dielectric. It belongs to the P409 series and carries X2 suppression classification. Key physical dimensions include a 20.3 mm lead spacing, 24 mm length, 7.6 mm width, and 14 mm height. The unit operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and complies with EN/IEC 60384-14, UL 60384-14, and CAN/CSA-E60384-14-09 standards.

Feature Summary

• X2 class interference suppression capability for mains filtering
• Metallized paper dielectric construction for reliability
• Radial through-hole mounting configuration
• Compliance with international safety certification standards

Applications

• RC snubber circuits in power electronics
• Cross-line noise suppression in AC power supplies
• EMI filtering in household appliances
• Industrial control equipment input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix AH220 against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm lead spacing and termination style. Ensure the application requires X2 safety ratings and metallized paper dielectric characteristics. Confirm compliance with local regulatory requirements such as UL or IEC before integration. Check for RoHS status if restricted substances are prohibited in the final assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring cross-line X2 suppression with a 100 nF value. The 20.3 mm lead pitch must match the PCB footprint constraints. Consider the 85°C maximum operating temperature limit for thermal management. Verify that the metallized paper dielectric suits the environmental conditions compared to polymer alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KEMET P409 series of safety capacitors. The series is characterized by metallized paper dielectrics and X2 suppression ratings. Other variants in the family share similar construction but differ in capacitance values, voltage ratings, and physical dimensions. The P409 series is widely used in general-purpose AC line filtering applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other KEMET P409 series parts with identical 20.3 mm lead spacing and 100 nF capacitance, such as P409CE104M275AH220 equivalents from authorized distributors. Cross-brand replacements must match X2 rating, 275 VAC, and physical envelope.
