The capacitors are rated for voltages from 500 V DC to 1600 V DC, offer capacitance values from 0.47 µF to 170 µF and are suitable for a maximum operating temperature of up to 105 °C. At a rated voltage and operating temperature of 70 °C, the typical life of the rugged, self-healing and RoHS-compliant capacitors is 95,000 hours.

A dielectric material is used to separate the conductive plates of a capacitor. This insulating material significantly determines the properties of a component. The dielectric constant of a material determines the amount of energy a capacitor can store when voltage is applied. A dielectric material becomes polarized when it is exposed to an electric field. When polarization occurs, the effective electric field is reduced.

X-class capacitors are used across the line where failure would not lead to an electrical shock. X-class capacitors are divided into sub-classes and Y-class capacitors are used in “line-to-ground” applications where failure could lead to an electrical shock. It is also divided into sub-classes by their AC voltage and peak surge voltage ratings.
