FEATURES
The “MACP” capacitor is representative of Hammarlund’s efforts to meet the demand for smaller dependable components. It is a scaled-down version of the popular “APC” with everything reduced except the quality and performance characteristics. For example, an “MAPC” is about half the size and weight of an “APC.” Lower minimum capacities and low inductance make the “MAPC” suitable for VHF use.
CONSTRUCTION
The standard “APC” construction is used in this capacitor. Rotors and stators are fabricated by soldering brass plates to supporting members and nickel-plating the assemblies. Nickel-plated phosphor bronze wiper assures positive rotor contact. Tapped brass mounting studs fastened to silicone treated steatite base permit mounting capacitor without grounding rotor.
