New Yorker Electronics distributes Streamline Avionics’ metallized polyester capacitors

17 August 2020

New Yorker Electronics has released the Z Series metallized polyester general purpose film capacitors from Streamline Avionics (formerly Elpac Capacitors). These capacitors are designed for general purpose applications where space and weight considerations are important. They are ideal for filtering, coupling or bypassing in high or low impedance circuits with AC or DC applications.

The polyester Z Series capacitors are used in applications that require long term stability at a relatively low Source: New Yorker ElectronicsSource: New Yorker Electronicscost. The self-healing characteristics of the metallized dielectric provide a very high level of reliability. The series has a temperature range of -55° C to 85° C a full rated voltage, derated linearly from 85° C to 50% at 125° C. It is available in voltages from 50 V to 600 V.

The Streamline Avionics Z Series supplies exceptional dielectric strength with some of the best volumetric efficiency. Terminal to terminal, they withstand 150% of rated voltage for 60 seconds through a limited resistance of 100 ohms per volt. Terminal to case, they withstand 200% of rated voltage.

Streamline has manufactured custom EMI filters and capacitors for aerospace and industry since 1962. These components are manufactured with film, metallized polyester and metallized polypropylene materials that are rated for 50-600 V. The company is ISO9001:2015 and AS9100D certified and its products are used in commercial and military aircraft, power generation facilities and in heavy industrial equipment.
