I salvaged 2 Furuno LC-90 Loran C units out of the dumpster at a wharf and it has these strange 3 kegged capacitors. The circuitboard labels them as TWO separate caps and the outside legs have ferrites over them.
ALSO they have those long rectangular capacitors with exposed legs seemingly soldered directly to the ends labeled 1u5 100
What are those called?
They look allot like this but a bit bigger **broken link removed**
Foil Polyester I'm assuming according to the site where I found that photo?
The first "capacitor" is a low pass RFI filter. It is a capacitor with two beads, one on each wire. It forms a LC filter. See attached data sheet. Different company but you will get the idea.
Capacitor 2; probably is also used for removing radio frequency noise. Call it a capacitor. This one looks like it was made for a switching power supply. High voltage!
There are X and Y type capacitors. One type is specifically made to connect from line to ground and the other from line to line.
The pic you showed was a Y capacitor.
