A question about BHC ALS30 capacitors

[vitalica]

If someone has recently bought capacitors ALS30 with the dimensions 77mm x105mm, can they tell me how much they weigh them?
In the datasheet it writes about 690 grams but the ones I bought (ALS30A683NF063 ( 68000uF / 63volts) are much lighter ... Why?

Thank you .

Best regards,
Vitali

If purchased from a known supplier, Mouser, RS Components, Farnell etc, think nothing of it. If substantially lighter and through fleabay, send them back for a refund.

It looks like that label has been stuck on

I bought 10 pieces from Mouser and it's very weird that we only weigh 400 gr instead of 690 grams ... Do you think I should worry? A lot of money

Mouser are reputable, you could email KEMET to check the specs

BHC and KEMET are not the same brand

I have also recently bought the ALS31 (66mm x105mm) version from Distrelec.
They are smaller but weigh 435 gr ... They write BHC-RIFA.
So , they're heavier than the ALS30 I bought Mouser ...

Finally, I received an answer from KEMET USA:
"Plant has advised that parts should be returned. Please contact Mouser to request an RMA since you purchased part directly through Mouser".
I sent my email to Mouser Czech Republic, no answer ...
