Vishay Film Capacitors is pleased to announce that we are 
progressively eliminating Halogen from our film capacitors. 
This change will result in modifications on the plastic case and 
filling epoxy, which will both become black. This will make the new 
shipments easily identifiable by component color. Also, from now on, 
marking is possible with Vishay logo or with Vishay lettering. 
Additionally, Vishay will upgrade the series MKT1817/MKT1818, and on 
the MKT 1817, which is currently supplied with Cu wire, Vishay will 
add copper clad iron wire (fecuma) as lead wire material. The pitch 
compatibility is maintained and no changes to the PCB are needed. 

Please contact a Mouser Technical Sales Representative for 
further information.
