[Amps] KAPSCH Capacitor

[Karl-Arne Markström]

These capacitors are made in Austria, by Kapsch AG which has a web-page www.kapsch.at
It may be possible to get some information from them, as they still make electronic components.

>From the description it looks like a ceramic capacitor with a working voltage of 20000V DC.
Its size points in the direction that it is a capacitor with quite high RF current carrying capability.

As it has been used in an MF transmitter, the dielectric may not be optimized for the HF frequency range.

Has anyody any informationon KAPSCH high voltage capacitor ?.
Marked:  KAPSCH Ko.2975,  1000 pf,  Betr. Spg. 20 kV= 
Both side metallic solid cap with axial screw M8.
Brown tubular, fiberglass or bakelite outside material jacket                        Approx. 40 mm diameter and 136 mm long.
Suitable for rf coupling/decoupling ?. What type capacitor, vacuum, ceramic, other one inside this pipe ?.
Probably was using for medium wave airport transmitter the British made. 

Thanks for help
