P409EL224M275AH471

Overview

The KEMET P409EL224M275AH471 is a radial leaded film capacitor from the P409 series, designed for X2 suppression applications. It features a capacitance of 220 nF with a tolerance of ±20%. The component is rated for 275 VAC and 630 VDC. It utilizes paper dielectric and supports through-hole mounting with a 25.4 mm lead spacing. 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 safety certification for mains interference suppression
• Paper dielectric construction for reliable AC performance
• Radial through-hole termination for standard PCB integration

Applications

• Cross-line EMI filtering in AC power supplies
• Motor run and start circuits
• General purpose AC coupling and snubber networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix AH471 against official KEMET documentation to confirm lead length and packaging configuration. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified -40°C to +85°C operating range. Confirm that the 275VAC rating aligns with local mains voltage requirements and relevant safety regulations such as IEC 60384-14 before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when X2 safety approval is mandatory for cross-line noise attenuation. The 220nF value and 275VAC rating suit standard single-phase AC applications. Consider the 25.4mm pitch for compatible PCB layouts. Verify thermal constraints, as the maximum operating temperature is limited to 85°C, which may require derating in high-ambient environments compared to higher-rated series.

Part Context

This part belongs to the KEMET P409 series of X2 suppression capacitors. These components are engineered for safety-critical AC line filtering. The series offers various capacitance values and physical footprints while maintaining consistent electrical ratings and safety certifications across the product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other KEMET P409 series parts with identical electrical ratings and pin configurations, such as P409EJ224M275AH331 or P409CE104M275AH220 if capacitance differences are acceptable. Cross-brand replacements must match X2 certification, voltage ratings, and physical dimensions.
