## Overview

The KONIGEVA Variable Capacitor is a compact, rugged single-section tuning capacitor offering a wide capacitance range (14.9pF to 384.2pF) with smooth clockwise rotation. Built with a durable steel U-frame, ball bearing, and brass shaft, it supports up to 350Vrms and fits perfectly in low-voltage electronic applications requiring precise frequency tuning.

## Description

Single section 365 pf variable capacitor, also referred to as a tuning capacitor. Single section 365 pf variable capacitor. A compact, rugged, economical unit used in wide variety of low-voltage applications. This capacitor's almost cubical shape makes more efficient use of space and delivers a remarkable amount of capacitance for its volume. 1 3/16" long frame ¼" dia. Shaft 9/16" long Capacitance decreases with CW rotation. Minimum capacitance per section: 14.9pF Maximum capacitance per section: 384.2pF Number of sections: 1 Air gap: 0.010 inches Maximum voltage: 350Vrms

Review: Pretty good, no issues - Heavy steel U-frame, ball bearing in the front (greased), spring steel grounding wiper in the back, brass 1/4" shaft, and phenolic insulators. Four mounting holes in the bottom and 2 in the front are tapped 6-32, other are untapped. Smooth rotation, solid stops. Mine measures 15-386 pF. Note that the connections are between the frame and one of the four solder lugs; all the lugs are connected to the stator. -Gary NA6O
Review: Electronic toys for the "good ole radio boys" - Wow! I didn't know you could find these new anywhere, or at all for that matter. A throwback to the "inbetween" of when radio really was then, and a bit before now! Nicely built, smooth-tuning, all in all a crystal set builders dream. Also great for pre-amps, and preselectors. Wherever a 365-400pf variable is needed. these will do the job, and cared for correctly will last many lifetimes! Thanks to Amplified Parts

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the bottom end of this capacitor's range?**
A: brand new caps, 31 blade, .010-air-gap, 1/4" tuning shaft, and CW rotation decreases capacitance. Testing indicates a capacity range of ~~ 390 (fully meshed) to 16 pf (fully open). That is all I can tell you at this point.

**Q: What is the rated voltage, what is the breakdown voltage?**
A: Technically, if it has a .010" air gap, as another person mentioned, it would have a breakdown voltage of roughy 500 volts. Don't even THINK about using it at such a voltage; it would be very dangerous to the user. Besides that, there's always variation in the gap as the capacitor is rotated, and the gap will often be much less than .010 inches. Typically, you should expect an operating voltage of no more than 10 to 20 volts. In the "old" days of tubes, these were hardly ever used in the higher-voltage plate circuits but were more common in the lower-voltage input and grid circuits.

**Q: Does this capacitor have a fixed stopping point, or can it continue to rotate beyond 360 degrees?  Thanks!**
A: This cap does have a fixed stopping point and will not rotate a full 360 degrees.

**Q: Are the insulators on this cap ceramic or phenolic?**
A: Air-gap is maintained by phenolic material.  Unit is well made and performs well in-circuit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product for crystal radios! Hopefully a couple tips to avoid my mistakes...
*by T***G on January 25, 2016*

Arrived (very quickly!) just as described and rotates smoothly 180 degrees, varying the capacitance from 0pF to 362pF per my LC meter. A standard 1/4” shaft (round with a set screw) plastic (or other nonconductive) knob is highly recommended. I used this capacitor to build a simple crystal radio on a wooden board with my kids. Worked GREAT! Couple of things that surprised me and hopefully will save you some grief and help you make best use of this nice capacitor... 1) Note that all four terminals are one node (one side of the capacitor) and the metal frame is the other node. Maybe this was obvious to most, but it took me a bit to discover. If I hadn't had an LC meter to figure it out, I'd likely have assumed that the two terminals on one side were node1 and the two on the other side were node2... and then spent lots of time wondering why my circuit wasn't working! 2) I mounted the capacitor to the board using the 4 #6-32 threaded holes on the bottom of the capacitor. I discovered that when the screws are tightened, the wood applied upward pressure to the two perpendicular terminal boards on either side (they extend just slightly below the metal frame), thus deforming the stationary plates of the capacitor which prevented the shaft plates from rotating without friction. I don’t think this is a design flaw at all but, clearly, if using the threaded mounting holes on the bottom, a small spacer (only about 1/16" or even 1/32”) is required between the metal frame and the wood (within/between the edges of the terminal boards) to prevent pressure on the terminal boards from the wood. FYI, after the initial deformation I was able to remedy the problem by gently shifting the terminal plates back down to their original position with a pair of needle nose pliers and the shaft now rotates freely again. (Sorry if that description isn’t clear; hopefully it will make sense once you have the capacitor in-hand and can avoid the mistake I made.)
