10 microfarad Feed Through Capacitor for MIL-STD and DO-160
- ▸ CFT-10U 10 µF feed-through capacitor for MIL-STD-461 and RTCA DO-160 conducted emissions testing — provides the standard-required low RF impedance across the power source so current probe measurements are accurate and repeatable.
- ▸ Establishes a defined low-impedance RF path for conducted emissions test setups — the 10 µF ±10% feed-through capacitor stabilizes the power-line impedance seen by the EUT, a key requirement for MIL-STD-461 CE101/CE102 and DO-160 conducted emissions measurements.
- ▸ High 100 A continuous current handling with no heating or voltage drop — rated for 100 amperes at 40°C, the CFT-10U supports high-current power lines without thermal rise or measurable voltage loss during extended emissions testing.
- ▸ Wide voltage rating: 250 VAC (50–400 Hz) and 600 VDC — suitable for aerospace 400 Hz power systems, military DC buses, and industrial AC mains in conducted emissions qualification.
- ▸ Built-in 1.5 MΩ bleeder resistor for operator safety — the integrated discharge resistor safely bleeds off stored energy when power is removed, protecting test engineers handling the capacitor.
- ▸ Meets ARP936 insertion loss requirements per the MIL-STD-220 measurement method — verified RF performance ensures the capacitor presents the correct low impedance across the conducted emissions frequency range.
- ▸ Rugged UL94 V-0 rated, nickel-plated brass and CRCA construction — flame-retardant insulation and durable plated metalwork provide long service life and excellent stability in demanding EMC test labs.
- ▸ Bulkhead or bench mounting via four M4 threaded holes — mounts directly to a shielded enclosure wall or test bench for fast, secure installation in MIL-STD-461 and DO-160 conducted emissions setups.
