    Quick help deciding on two capacitors

    Hi guys,

    So im trying to repair a Nespresso machine for my brother and it seems it all comes down to the two 680nf and 220nf MKP capacitors. Im trying to decide which would be better between these two Panasonics


    Panasonic 680nF Polyester Capacitor PET 250 V ac ±10% ECQUL Series Through Hole - Link

    Panasonic 680nF Polypropylene Capacitor PP 275 V ac ±10% Tolerance Through Hole ECQUA Series - Link

    It was previously using a Pilkor MKP capacitor as such :
    Pilkor Link

    Any help would be highly appreciated !

    The Pilkor part is rated for 275VAC, and uses a polypropylene dielectric. The Panasonic ECQUA Series is the same voltage and material, so go with that.

      Thanks Pete, im leaning with that, seems like the better choice & handles heat better at 110 c which is way more suitable for a coffee machine concerning the heat.
