Kpf is the power factor of a capacitor, indicating its ability to store and release electrical energy efficiently. A higher Kpf value represents a more efficient capacitor in terms of energy storage and release.
bipolar capacitors
Two capacitors can be connected in series to double the voltage rating, but they must be identical capacitors and they should each have a resistor in parallel to equalise the voltages, the resistors chosen to pass about 1 mA. With two capacitors in series the overall capacitance is half the capacitance of either capacitor. The combination stores equal charge at double the voltage and the stored energy is doubled.

Capacitors are measured in Farads or microfarads.
