LAK2G101MELC20ZB

The LAK2G101MELC20ZB is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can package designed for general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 100 µF at a 400 V rating with polarization and is constructed for high‑temperature endurance and enhanced safety under abnormal voltage conditions.

Engineered for equipment exposed to fluctuating line voltages, this part combines extended voltage capability, elevated temperature tolerance, and robust ripple handling to support reliable operation in demanding power circuits.

Key Features

• Snap‑in Terminal Package Radial, can‑type snap‑in mounting simplifies installation and secures the capacitor in high‑vibration or high‑current assemblies.
• Rated Performance 100 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 400 V rated voltage for higher‑voltage power systems.
• High‑Temperature Endurance Rated for operation from −25 °C to +105 °C with endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C under rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Capability Specified ripple handling of 550 mA at 120 Hz and 632.5 mA at 10 kHz supports effective ripple smoothing in power rails.
• Improved Safety Design Series safety features include a pressure relief vent that operates under abnormal conditions to limit hazardous outcomes.
• RoHS Compliant Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), meeting environmental compliance requirements.
• Compact Can Dimensions Package dimensions approximately L: 2 cm × D: 3.5 cm for space‑efficient board layouts.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies Bulk smoothing and ripple filtering in higher‑voltage power supplies where 400 V rating and elevated temperature endurance are needed.
