paper in oil capacitors





Jensen paper in oil capacitors are among the best you will find anywhere. Their pure metal foil paper-in-oil capacitors are used world wide by DIY audiophiles and high-end amplifier manufacturers. We have selected some of their most interesting types for stocking.

These could be called the “standard” Jensen type of audio signal capacitors. Mainly used as coupling and by-pass capacitor in high quality audio electronics. Often used for DIY upgrades. In most applications it will make a significant improvement when replacing the popular metalized plastic film (often polypropylene) capacitors. This is the Jensen capacitor type, were you get a lot of sound quality at a reasonable cost.

The conducting elements are pure copper foil, the leads are pure solid silver, and combined with the other exclusive materials used for this capacitor line, we feel that this is one of the best sounding capacitors you will find. Copper gives the sound more depth - a kind of a third dimension. You still get good value-for-money with the copper foil, because it gives you significant improvement in sound reproduction compared to aluminium, and at the same time, the price is manageable.



All other types and values are available, but as these are non stock items, with some delay.







Jensen paper in oil
audio signal capacitors


Paper in oil dielectric high voltage foil capacitors for coupling applications in tube
or solid state audio equipments.
Many audiophiles think that the oil capacitors sound warm.
They simply sound correct, with the harmonic richness of the live music.

• Paper in oil dielectric aluminium or copper foil capacitors
• 630V good for coupling applications in tube or solid state audio equipments.
• Terminal leads are solder-sealed to eyelets in the end-discs.
• The terminal connected to the outer foil, the foil closest to the can, is always marked with a vertical line on the marking.
• Capacitors are encased in aluminium tube (hermetically sealed) with phenolic paper/rubber covers.
• Tolerance: 0.1uF or less is -20/+30%, greater than 0.1uF is -10/+20%.
• Operating temperature range is -40/+85°C
• Max. ripple voltage is the sum of the peak ripple voltage and the applied DC voltage should not exceed the DC rating of the capacitor.
• Power factor (loss factor) is tg < 0.008 at 1 kHz
