The compact film, X2, safety capacitor is rated in the nano Farad range (about 0.1uF), and at least up to 275VAC. Has radial leads. It’s slightly smaller than some caps used on the older power supplies, but should fit with little issue due to the flexible legs. It fits all newer power supplies perfectly.
This capacitor is most likely to need replacing due to age or damage, and if not replaced tends to fail with lots of smoke. We recommend replacing this cap every year or two when possible due to the low cost and added safety. And be sure to ALWAYS use a good quality Surge Suppressor (Panamax) and Line Filter with your important retro equipment.

Filter capacitors are used for the filtering of undesirable frequencies. It protects in several ways such as suppressing harmonics of the (variable) switching frequency from exiting of the supply. More importantly it protects the supply’s diode bridge from fast transients on the line caused by switching inductive loads or lightning.
