## Description

The KEMET PME271YB5220MR30 is a Y2-rated noise suppression safety capacitor engineered from a metallized paper dielectric system, housed in a 2-pin radial box package with a 15.2 mm lead spacing. Designed for electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering across line-to-ground (Class Y2) applications, this component features a nominal capacitance of 0.022 µF with a ±20% tolerance, a rated alternating voltage of 300 VAC, and a direct voltage rating of 1,000 VDC. Its robust impregnated paper construction ensures high dielectric reliability and self-healing properties, making it well-suited for continuous connection to AC mains power supplies, motor drives, and industrial automation equipment where high-voltage transient suppression is required.

Operating across a temperature range of -40°C to +115°C with a maximum rated temperature of 115°C, the device demonstrates a high insulation resistance of 12 GOhms and a maximum dV/dt rating of 1.4 kV/µs, allowing it to withstand severe voltage slew rates in AC line filtering circuits. Encapsulated in a self-extinguishing, molded box material that meets stringent flammability standards, the component includes tinned wire leads configured for through-hole PCB mounting. It carries multiple international safety agency certifications—including ENEC, UL, cUL, and CQC—and complies with Grade II humidity ratings (Test Condition A), rendering it suitable for demanding power conversion and noise-decoupling topologies exposed to environmental stress.
