HISTORY:
Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.
Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.
If you would like to know more about Ee values, please take a look HERE
Jamicon Al electrolytics are intended for general and industrial use.
Like so many "I know everything forums" online, I have read some absolute "dribble" regarding electronic component manufacturers from those who appear to have no engineering or technical background at all (a bit like the Twitter of the electronic discussion groups)
ALL of the electro's I am clearing out of our workshops have served us well over the years, it is NOT just the manufacturer that is important - storage conditions, circuit design and so many other criteria are also very important for the reliability of any electronic component. Take a high quality capacitor such as an EPCOS, put it in a badly designed circuit and it will go "poof" just like any other capacitor.
Go to the horses "mouth" HERE is a link to Jamicon-Kaimei (Taiwan)
It is IMPORTANT to read my information page about both new AND old stock electrolytic capacitors ... please go HERE
JAMICON - Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitor (1)
Made in Taiwan, part of the KAIMEI ELECTRONIC Group
Type: C753K0 (M) RP series
Rated at 2000 Hours MTBF
Value: 15,000uF 100V DC (Surge voltage 125V)
Temperature: 105°C
Termination: Screw terminal (M5 x 0.8mm x 10mm)
Dimensions: 87mm H x 51mm Diameter
NOTE: No 51mm mounting ring is supplied but the capacitor does include the M5 terminal screws.
Need the mounting ring (Kemet clip)? RS Electronics has stock of these although best if you can find one around your workshop, they don't come cheap!
Weight: 300g (two or more of these in your equipment can add to the overall weight appreciably)
COSMETIC CONDITION:
Excellent and 'as new'
Stored in the original capacitor tray with Al foil over the top of the terminals to ensure there is no charge build up while being stored. These will be supplied the same way to the new owner, with the screws packed in a separate clear plastic bag (sealed).
