Hermetically sealed in metal cases, they are electrically and mechanically designed to meet stringent operating requirements. Impregnated with Vitamin Q, a substantially linear, controlled molecular weight, hydrocarbon polymer, which is exclusive with Sprague, these dependable capacitors are available for operation in two temperature ranges: -55 °C to + B5 °C and -55°C to + 125°C. Because of their Vitamin Q impregnation, these subminiature capacitors have a higher insulation resistance and longer life than comparable units with ordinary oils.
