Overview of LAK2D471MELZ40 – 470 µF, 200 V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LAK2D471MELZ40 is a Nichicon LAK series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal can, rated 200 V with 470 µF capacitance. It is a general‑purpose, snap‑in terminal type designed for applications that require bulk capacitance and robust performance under fluctuating voltages.
Key value propositions include high working voltage, a wide operating temperature range up to 105°C, and engineered safety features for abnormal voltage conditions, making it suitable for demanding power applications and industrial equipment.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF capacitance at a 200 V rated voltage for high‑voltage bulk energy storage and filtering.
- Snap‑in Can Package — Radial, snap‑in terminal configuration for secure mechanical mounting in power assemblies and chassis installations.
- Temperature & Endurance — Category temperature range of -25°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C when subjected to rated ripple current conditions.
- Loss & Leakage Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) ≤ 0.20 at 120 Hz, 20°C, and leakage current specified as I ≤ 3√CV (µA) after 5 minutes at rated voltage and 20°C.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 1.3 A at 120 Hz and 1.56 A at 10 kHz to support smoothing and ripple handling in power circuits.
- Safety & Abnormal Voltage Design — Designed with improved safety measures and a pressure relief vent to reduce dangerous failure modes under abnormal voltage conditions.
- Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
- Compact Dimensions — 22 mm diameter × 40 mm length (L: 4 cm × D: 2.2 cm) for dense power assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Power supplies and converters — Bulk smoothing and ripple suppression at up to 200 V with rated ripple current characteristics suitable for power conversion stages.
- Industrial equipment — Designed for sustained operation at elevated temperatures (up to 105°C) and long endurance (2000 hours), fitting continuous‑duty industrial environments.
- Voltage‑fluctuating systems — Improved safety features and permissible abnormal voltage handling make it suitable for equipment exposed to fluctuating input conditions.
- General‑purpose power assemblies — Snap‑in mounting and a compact can package provide a reliable option for general‑purpose power and control boards.
Unique Advantages
- High working voltage with substantial capacitance — 200 V rating combined with 470 µF offers significant energy storage for medium‑voltage power designs.
- Long endurance at high temperature — Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, supporting long service life in thermally demanding applications.
- Engineered safety under abnormal voltage — Pressure relief vent and enhanced safety design reduce hazardous failure modes during overvoltage events.
- Measured electrical performance — Specified tan δ and leakage current limits provide predictable AC loss and leakage behavior for reliable circuit design.
- Robust ripple handling — Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz supports a range of switching and line‑frequency power topologies.
- Compliance and manufacturing trust — RoHS compliance and Nichicon LAK series pedigree for use in regulated markets and established designs.
