Capacitor 470nF 440V AC ±20% MKP 338 (Capacitor)

The Vishay MKP338 is an X1 class EMI suppression film capacitor designed for "Across the Line" AC applications. Built with a metallized polypropylene (MKP) dielectric, it offers high reliability and self-healing properties, making it suitable for EMI filtering in mains power supplies and sensitive electronic equipment.

This radial component features a rated voltage of 440 V AC and withstands transient surges in compliance with strict safety standards. Its flame-retardant plastic enclosure (UL 94 V-0) and epoxy sealing ensure robust mechanical and environmental protection. The tinned leads with variable pitch facilitate breadboard prototyping or production soldering.
