Vishay/BCcomponents 157 PUM - 159 PUL Series/Snap-In Cans BCcomponents is intending to change the design of the Aluminum cans for snap-in and Din electrolytic capacitors. The current bottom vent will be changed to a side vent. This change will enable standardization to designs with extended cathode. The implementation date is 2/27/2007. Also, BCcomponents is changing the electrolytes used in mid volt Range of 157 PUM-SI and 159 PUL-SI. With this change they will introduce a glycol based electrolyte replacing the existing electrolyte system. This change will improve ESR/Z at room and elevated temperatures and it will use more environmentally friendly materials. Affected Part 594-2222-159-42102 5-0207-29
