JUPITER HT-Series Beeswax Paper Aluminum Foil Capacitors
Old Concept - New Technology
A unique blend of the old sound with refinements of the new. New high temp (HT) series replaces the original beeswax/paper design (in fact, this is essentially a 3rd generation design). Jupiter Condenser HT line of capacitors feature a reinforced beeswax paper dielectric and (with further improved impregnation techniques) is now cased in a non-drip/melt casing and can withstand higher operating temperatures. Perfect for DIY and OEM use where natural sound is demanded.

Jupiter HT caps were designed for use in high quality high definition audio signal circuits. The HT series require less special handling and less specific application. From tube gear to solid state, more users can enjoy the benefits of their natural high definition sound.
HT line features a beeswax and reinforced paper dielectric with further improved impregnation techniques, and a non drip/melt casing. Together, the new materials and manufacturing techniques, the beeswax capacitor withstands higher operating temperatures. Perfect for DIY and OEM use where natural sound is demanded.
The "new look" to Jupiter Condenser Co. capacitors, is true to form following function. Not just a new style, the outer casing is still true to natural materials yet offers improved environmental characteristics. A paper tube impregnated with phenolic resin assures excellent moisture resistance along with a resin end fill to lock moisture out. The casing material will not melt or drip even at higher temperatures.
Regarding capacitor section processing...... a refined impregnation system* is utilized, capable of deep vacuum and high pressure. Vacuum pressures well below 10 millitorr are achieved, and even higher positive pressures assure consistent impregnation with more gas and moisture removal. New proprietary measures of strengthening dielectric properties have been developed and employed which yield higher insulation resistance and allow greater operating temperatures. Wax and paper construction yields a very well mechanically damped capacitor, free from electrostatic and mechanical ringing.
*The computer controlled wax vacuum impregnation system was engineered and built by Jupiter Condenser, and section processing is based on techniques developed by Western Electric and RCA.
