how to mount Cornell-Dubliner computer grade caps with pins?

CharlieLaub · 16th August 2012, 04:59 AM

Hi Steve,

I am interested in the Cornell-Dubilier computer grade 12000uF 80V caps that you are selling. But in the product picture (see below) the caps have some kind of pins instead of screw terminals or the snap-in solder tabs.

How should connections be made to these caps? Can one solder directly to the pins, or will that melt the housing???

Thanks for any help you can give.

Charlie.....
These were designed for PC Mount with one pin marked with a positive
the other 2, one is - and the third is a repositioning pin to keep it straight
on the PC Board. Yes, you can solder right to the pins and use shrink
tubing to cover it.
