    Can anyone identify this capacitor?

    Hey everyone, my mechanic narrowed my climate control issue down to these two capacitors on the climate control circuit board.

    Let me know if taking photos from different angles would better help identify them!

    I am not familiar with how to identify these and where to order new ones.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

    I can't track down the manufacturer, but it's safe to assume they're 50V 100uF caps.

    This should be a suitable replacement:

    Please double-check the diameter. I'm assuming these are 8mm wide (measured by the size of the can).

They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."

      Thanks for the info! I'll see if I can get a shot of it next to a ruler. And I think they are a little taller than the one you linked to.

        10.50mm is the standard height for an 8mm SMD cap for that spec... Are you sure?

          Here are more photos and measurements of the capacitors.

          They are 8mm in diameter and 9mm tall.

            The one I linked to should be good.

            FYI, here are the heights that exist for this cap in 8mm:

            10mm
            10.2mm
            10.3mm
            10.5mm
            10.6mm
            11mm
            11.5mm

            You might also want to change that small little one I see there in the picture if it's the same brand.

              I think you are correct, I got mislead by the photo on the link you provided, as it looked short from the photo.

              I also think I measured wrong to get 9mm. I did not include the black base, just the silver part.

              If you can look at the photos I posted earlier and confirm that would be great! Thank you!

                And so 10.5mm height is the most common one? Also, what size do you think the small one would be? I need to get back to the shop to measure the little one.

                Thank you again!

                  Yes, the photo on Digikey is just a stock photo for that series, and doesn't represent the exact size of the part that's in the specifications table on said page.

                  Yes, 10.5 is the most common. I think the small one is 6.3mm. Ok good luck measuring

                    BTW, seems like a lot of people don't know how you go about replacing these caps. With these you want to cut them, cut them? I know, it seems weird but take some cutters and cut them just above the black plastic, cut them completely off. Then the plastic piece and leads are left attached to the board. You slide the plastic piece off then desolder the leads as normal.

                    To replace the cap, treat it like any other surface mount component.
