Aerovox Lighting Capacitor 24UF 400 Volt 400 Watt Metal Halide (Metal Oval)

Aerovox 2664-MF/Z93S4024MN 24UF 400 Volt (V) oval, oil filled, metal halide, HID lighting capacitor commonly used for 400 Watt (W) metal halide fixtures and works with M-59 bulbs with a constant wattage autotransformer circuit type ballast. The case is oval 1.75" x 3.8" tall with a temperature rating of 100C. No PCB’s rated for 90c, +-3%. There is an external resistor that dissipates charges to less than 50V in 60 seconds when DE energized. This unit has a protective interrupter device to open the circuit at failure or the end of life (if you see the top bubbled and the capacitor is dead this is what happened). Capacitors do deteriorate; stop replacing ballast kits if the transformer is good. The average life of a capacitor is 60,000 hours. They can become weak, this is easy to check.
