Calibration:

 An certifi cate of calibration is supplied 

with each capacitor traceable to the SI, giving the 
measured direct capacitance and Df at 

1 kHz, 15 Vac and 23° ±1°C. 

Temperature Coeffi

  cient of Capacitance:   

Typically ±(20 to 40) ppm/°C, between 20°C and 
70°C

Stability:  

Capacitance change is less than 0.05% per 

year.

Residual impedance: 

See equivalent circuit and plot 

on page 1

Terminals:

 Two GR874 coaxial connectors 

Two bnc-f connectors for 1403-1pF-BNC 

Outer shell of connectors are connected to case 
ground to provide complete shielding of the leads.

Mechanical:

 

Diameter 3.0625 in (78 mm), height 4.875 in (125 
mm), over-all.

Net weight: 

1 lbs (0.5 kg)

Shipping weight:

 4 lbs (1.9 kg)
