Title: Vitramon Brand Capacitors?
Post by: edpalmer42 on April 05, 2020, 03:35:24 am
I'm refurbishing a piece of 1960's vintage equipment.  A few of the critical capacitors appear to be from a company called Vitramon.  I'm having trouble finding good info on them because Vishay bought the name and are now producing capacitors under that name.  This creates a lot of noise in the Googleverse.

Does anyone have any specs on the OLD Vitramon capacitors?  In particular, I'm looking for info on temperature coefficient and tolerance.

Thanks,
Ed

You can probably contact these people: https://www.surplussales.com/capacitors/RF-Vitramon.html (https://www.surplussales.com/capacitors/RF-Vitramon.html)

Yes, I found that site.  It was the site that first gave me the brand name.  Since I'm not buying any capacitors right now, I don't like to take up their time by asking them questions.

You need not buy anything right away. You can ask for a catalog of some sort if they have and probably establish communication with someone there and see how it goes. May be you can email some pictures of the items you have/need and see how that goes. If a seller can't bother answering your questions, you have to look elsewhere (they know this anyway).
