ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Units are wrapped with flame retardant insulating sleeves and end-filled with a flame retardant potting
compound. Current handling capabilities from normal line frequency currents to 83amps, RMS from
2KHz to resonant frequency. Capacitor values supporting style 5 are supplied with an exclusive "bridge &
bolt" construction - both with multiple internal soldered contact points for high current distribution.
With the introduction of the 5MPA SERIES, the designer now has a dry film AC
capacitor with a combination of physical and electrical properties to maximize
performance, reliability and space utilization. With the realistic potential for
significant production and overall system cost savings.

Marking and Date Code
All capacitors are marked with company initials "EC", corporate logo or EC trademark—in addition to type 5MPA, capacitance,
tolerance, rated DC working voltage and date code. The first two digits of the date code represent the year, the second two digits the
week, i.e., 0952 is the 52nd week of 2009, 0902 is the second week of 2009.
Quality Assurance
Major emphasis is placed on quality assurance. EC is an ISO 9001-2000 and AS9100:2004 Certified Company. Raw material
inspection and the use of SPC manufacturing procedures assure the highest quality standards. Procedures are fully described in the
EC Quality Control Manual. Electronic Concepts will continue to advance the state-of-the-art by utilizing leading edge technology,
compact capacitor designs and establishing reliability procedures.
