Before installation, confirm that the component’s electrical characteristics match the original part and the requirements of the circuit.

Key Specifications

• Product Name: 472pF 3kV Ceramic Capacitor
• Capacitance: 472pF
• Voltage Rating: 3kV
• Component Type: Ceramic Capacitor

Capacitance and Voltage Rating

The 472pF marking indicates a capacitance value of 4,700pF, equivalent to 4.7nF, under the standard three-digit capacitor code. However, the supplied product name states 472PF. Confirm the manufacturer’s datasheet or product marking before publishing the final capacitance specification.

The 3kV rating indicates the stated voltage rating of the component. This rating should not be treated as confirmation of its suitability for every high-voltage application. Circuit design, voltage peaks, operating frequency, insulation requirements, and the capacitor’s specific construction must all be considered.

Ceramic Capacitor Construction

Ceramic capacitors use ceramic dielectric material and are widely used in electronic circuits. Their electrical characteristics depend on the dielectric type, construction, tolerance, and manufacturer specifications.

The exact dielectric class, capacitance tolerance, temperature coefficient, dimensions, and lead configuration of this particular product have not been confirmed. Check these details before selecting it for a circuit where electrical stability or precise performance is important.

Applications

Depending on the verified specifications and circuit requirements, a 472pF 3kV ceramic capacitor may be suitable for:

• Compatible high-voltage electronic circuits
• Electronic equipment repair and maintenance
• Replacement of a matching capacitor in an existing circuit
• Electronic projects requiring the specified capacitance and voltage rating
• Circuits where a suitable ceramic capacitor is specified by the manufacturer

These are general application examples, not a guarantee that the component is suitable for every listed use. Always compare the component with the original part or the circuit’s design requirements.

Selection and Replacement Guide

Before purchasing or replacing this capacitor, verify the capacitance, rated voltage, tolerance, dielectric characteristics, physical dimensions, and lead spacing. Also check whether the circuit requires a particular safety or pulse-rated capacitor. A component with a similar appearance or nominal voltage rating may not be an appropriate substitute.

For high-voltage equipment, installation should be performed by a qualified person using appropriate safety procedures. Disconnect the equipment from its power source and ensure that stored electrical energy has been safely discharged before servicing.

Why Choose the Correct Capacitor?

Selecting the correct capacitor helps maintain compatibility with the intended circuit. Matching the required capacitance and voltage rating is important, but other electrical and physical characteristics can also affect performance. Checking the datasheet before installation helps reduce the risk of choosing an unsuitable replacement.

Product Summary

The 472pF 3kV Ceramic Capacitor is listed as a ceramic capacitor with a stated 3kV voltage rating for compatible electronic applications. Confirm the capacitance marking and all other specifications with the manufacturer or supplier before purchase or installation.

Note: Product specifications should be verified against the actual component or its datasheet before listing or use.
