EFC Series M1206 are polypropylene capacitors with double-sided metallized plates. This series offers the advantages of a self-healing metallized dielectric and the high current/pulsing capabilities (see dv/dt Table) of a metallized capacitor. Packaging options include: wrap and fill (TC, TF), radial lead box (EFR), and radial lead dip (DFR).
