Guest Zeppelin Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'm having trouble identifying some capacitors. The capacitors look like the ones in the picture which I think are 'Polyester Layer Capacitors '.I have the following: (mju is the greek prefix used for micro)mju 1 2501n400mju 33100mju 2210010n400I'll be grateful if someone tells me the values.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogo2520 Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 hello ZeppelinOKmju 1, 250 = 1 micro Farads, 250 volts1n, 400 = .001micro Farads, 400 voltsmju 33, 100 = 33micro Farads, 100 volts10n,400 = .01micro Farads, 400voltsFarads, micoFarads, nanoFarads, picoFaradsThe first is the value, and the second is the voltage hope this helps gogo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staigen Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hi gogo2520Sorry to inform you that you are wrong at a few of your values ???mju 1, 250 = 1 micro Farads, 250 volts100nF=0.1uF, the voltage is rightmju 33, 100 = 33micro Farads, 100 volts330nF=0.33uF//Staigen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 :)it may pay to look at the capacitor conversion charts i posted in the forums somewhere before they are still there, ive mever seen it like the way you have it mju uf yes and mf yes but mju the j looks more like the tollerence 5 or 1o% i think if i remember corectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogo2520 Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Hello Staigen Thanks for pointing that out. Yes I am new to this and I thought my answer was right, good thing you cought it. Hey Zeppelin good thing for you and I am sorry about the mistake. And for me hey I learned something too :) I do have a question on something that is throughing me off, I read stuff on caps that give refference on MF and UF I thought they were the same the way the Parts house list them. so ya I don't know enough. Like I said I'm new ha gogo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
