Default What caps is this?

Electrolytic? Tantalum?

Manufacturer? Data sheet?


Siemens. At least from the trademark.
Possibly 1 UF at 40 VDC


Type?



** Looks very much like some German made " long life " electros I see in
audio equipment made by Quad in the UK in the late 1970s and 1980s. Normal
electros, airtight sealed in a plastic housing.

Funny thing is, they nearly all failed ( high ESR or open) after 10 to 15
years.
