Construction of the hybrid capacitor

Anti vibration terminals

Capacitor Hybrid Anti-Vibration-Terminal Panasonic Industry

An auxiliary terminal structure has supportive terminals positioned on the sides of the capacitor. This enables a simple visual confirmation of the auxiliary terminal soldering, ensures stable soldering properties, and enhances the ECU's overall vibration resistance.

The capacitor can withstand vibration forces of 30G, making additional anti-vibration measures unnecessary and therefore allowing customers to streamline their production processes.
