Capacitor Replacement Verification

[airlinetech]

I've been reading this forum and think I've picked out some replacement capacitors, but wanted to double check with somebody else to verify my sanity 😆.

Current Capacitors - OST RLX
Going off of this PDF: https://paullinebarger.net/DS/OST/OS...X%20series.pdf

16 Volts
1500 uF
10x25 mm
.020 ohms
2780 mArms

10 Volts
1500 uF
10x16 mm
.022 ohms
1800 mArms

Planned Replacements

16 V
1800 uF
10x25 mm
17 mOhms
2.9 Amps

10 V
1500 uF
10x25 mm
22 mOhms
2.15 Amps

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Can you provide the brand and series of the planned replacements?

Hi Andrew,

The 16 volt ones are Nichicon UHW and the 10 volt ones are Chemi-Con KZE looking at the datasheets. Thanks for your help!

The series look good. For the 16 volt ones, just make sure the application isn't capacitance-sensitive, otherwise you might be better off getting the 1500uF UHWs.

Thanks. I probably should get the (or some) 1500 uF ones . Someone else said I should. I was reading about ripple values a little bit here, but I haven't been successful finding 16V 1500uF capacitors with a ripple value of 2780 mArms....

those will work,
you dont need to be that well matched though.
