715C10DKS20 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 715C10DKS20 is a high voltage ceramic DC disc capacitor from the 715C series, manufactured by VISHAY/BC (Vishay Cera-Mite). It offers a nominal capacitance of 0.02 µF (20 nF) with a wide tolerance of -20% to +80% and is rated for 10,000 V DC (3.5 kV RMS at 60 Hz). The Y5U Class 2 ceramic dielectric provides stable performance over the operating temperature range of -30°C to +85°C.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a low dissipation factor of ≤20×10⁻³ measured at 1 kHz, high insulation resistance of minimum 200,000 MΩ at 25°C, and a dielectric strength of 150% of rated voltage (charging current limited to 50 mA). The corona limit is <5 pC at 50% rated AC voltage, and power dissipation should be limited to a 20°C rise above ambient on the case. The capacitor is well-suited for high voltage applications such as power supplies, CO₂ lasers, X-ray equipment, welding equipment, and industrial systems.

 

Mechanically, the part is housed in a disk package with metal fittings and threaded screw terminals for secure mounting. The maximum diameter is 54.1 mm and the maximum height is 19.8 mm. The termination is screw terminal with brass, silver-plated screw terminals, and the lead style is threaded. The capacitor is also designed with an epoxy coating for environmental protection.
