ClarityCap
ESA Series Film Capacitor
ESA 250VDC Range

ClarityCap’s 630V and 250V ESA models result from a two-year research program on the audible effects of improved control over mechanical resonance(microphonics) in a metalized film capacitor. ESA employs a non-standard polypropylene film, hand-soldered copper terminals, and insulated solid-copper lead-outs. The case is silver with black end caps.
The compact and inexpensive form factor of 250Vdc ESA makes it well suited for stand monitors and space-constrained inboard PCB crossovers.
