RS PRO 2200μF Aluminium Electrolytic Capacitor 16V dc, Radial, Through Hole

This electrolytic capacitor from RS PRO stores electrical energy by using electrolytes to create electrostatic fields. It's typically used for coupling and decoupling applications, where it filters out high-frequency noise in power supply signals.


This component has a safety vent construction that releases gas and prevents the capacitor from exploding in case of over-voltage. It's a through-hole type unit, meaning you can mount it by running the leads through the holes in your printed circuit board (PCB).


Capacitors of this type can also be used for storing power in flash lamps, which are commonly used in photographic applications. It's a general-purpose capacitor, so it's well-suited to a wide range of electrical applications and industries.
