Global Capacitor Part Number Definition

Understand Johanson’s global capacitor part number breakdown.

For faster decoding and to ensure you have the right part number, contact our Applications Engineers for support.

Overview:

Johanson has instituted a new "Global Part Numbering" (GPN) Definition.

Only the part number is changing. The parts are produced with the exact same materials, manufacturing processes, manufacturing controls, dimensions, physical attributes and testing as the parts supplied with the legacy part numbers.

  • The GPNs will be phased in over the next several years and are planned to be completed by January 1, 2026.
  • We will continue to quote and accept orders with the current (legacy) part numbers throughout this period.
  • Beginning January 1, 2022, all samples will be provided with the GPN.
  • Updates associated with this change will occur periodically.
  • A database for the approximate 1.7 million crosses can be accessed at: Global Capacitor Part Number Search

201 = 200V

602 = 6,000V

Special Code

ZZZ = Special Code

3 numeric values in the voltage field – No "R" in the 3 digits – used for values greater than or equal to 10 Volts.

1st two digits are significant; third digit denotes number of zeros:

  • 100 = 10 Volts
  • 101 = 100 Volts
  • 402 = 4000 Volts

With "R" in the 3 digits – used for capacitance values less than 10 Volts:

  • R = decimal point
  • 6R3 = 6.3 Volts
