Solar feed-thru capacitorsare highly reliable and ruggedly constructed units for general use in screen rooms and other environments. The metal case with four husky threaded inserts lends itself to convenient installation with minimal effort. The threaded feed-thru stud will accommodate power current of the listed rating without heating or voltage loss. indicates available current and voltage ratings of the variousSolar 10 µF Feed-Thru Capacitors. All have low dissipation factors, high temperature ratings, high insulation resistance, doubly rated dielectric strength, and long life characteristics. To satisfy safety requirements, a bleeder resistor is included within the capacitors, which serves to discharge the capacitors when applied voltage is removed.

There are those who disagree with the RF conducted susceptibility test setup of Method CS02 of MIL-STD-462. Homemade rigs have sprouted to comply with the coupling capacitor requirement, each with its own disadvantage. Our littleSolar Type 7415-3 RF Coupleris the answer. A neat little box with BNC connectors and a pair of binding posts, it is rated at 270 VAC at the LINE terminals and 20 V RMS into the GEN port. It looks good and does a fine job.

Solar Type 9133-1 Three Phase Capacitor Assembly for Line-to-Line Capacitance in Delta Connected Power Systems. This handy device contains three capacitors, 10 µF each, connected to provide capacitance from phase A to B, A to C, and B to C. The capacitors are rated at 270 VAC. As a safety feature, each capacitor is paralleled with a 500 K resistor to prevent a voltage charge from remaining on the assembly after power is disconnected. It is fitted with 1/4-28 feedthru studs to facilitate making connection from three phase power to a three phase load up to 100 A. The Type 6512-106R capacitor can be used for the neutral in `wye` connected power systems.
