## Long description

Lamex LXKON17 is a metalized polypropylene (MKP) film capacitor with a nominal capacitance of 5 µF and a rated voltage of 450 V. Its compact film construction provides stable capacitance, low dielectric losses and good pulse handling, making it suitable for use in AC and DC circuits. The component is intended for tasks where long service life, predictable performance and electrical stability are required, including filtering, coupling/decoupling, timing and power electronics.
Advantages
The metalized polypropylene dielectric ensures low dissipation factor and reduced self-heating under normal operating conditions. Its construction offers good pulse current capability and mechanical stability, which contributes to extended operational lifetime in both industrial and consumer applications. The 450 V rating allows use in many medium-voltage circuits while the 5 µF value provides ample capacitance for smoothing and energy storage tasks without excessive size.
Suitable for
Power supply filtering and smoothing
AC and DC coupling/decoupling
Timing circuits and snubber networks
Pulse and energy-storage applications in power electronics

How to use
Install the capacitor following the circuit schematic and observe correct polarity when used in polarized configurations (if applicable). Ensure the device is mounted with adequate spacing and ventilation to avoid heat accumulation; follow the circuit’s rated voltage and current limits to prevent over-stress. Verify correct soldering or connector attachment and allow for recommended safety margins when placing the capacitor near heat sources or high-voltage components.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, select this MKP film capacitor for applications requiring low loss and stable capacitance. Avoid exceeding the rated voltage and limit ripple current to values appropriate for film capacitors. If used in high-temperature environments, provide ventilation or spacing to maintain ambient temperature within the capacitor’s specified operating range.
