Overview of LAK2G151MELZ45 – 400V 150µF Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 105°C
The LAK2G151MELZ45 is an aluminum electrolytic, snap‑in terminal capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 150 µF at a nominal 400 V in a compact radial can (φ22 mm × 45 mm) optimized for equipment that experiences voltage fluctuations.
Built for elevated operating temperatures, this capacitor is rated to 105°C and provides a combination of high voltage capability, ripple handling and safety features suited to industrial and power‑electronics designs.
Key Features
- Core Dielectric & Capacitance — 150 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, providing predictable energy storage and decoupling.
- High Voltage Range — Rated voltage 400 V with available rated voltage range of 200 V to 420 V to support higher DC bus and industrial power rails.
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −25°C to +105°C and endurance specified for 2000 hours at 105°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current 700 mA at 120 Hz, 105°C and 805 mA at 100 kHz, enabling effective smoothing under continuous AC ripple conditions.
- Loss & Leakage Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) ≤ 0.20 at 120 Hz, 20°C and measured leakage current of 0.73 mA, supporting stable performance in power circuits.
- Package & Mounting — Snap‑in radial can package (φ22 mm × 45 mm) for secure PCB mounting and straightforward assembly in power modules and chassis.
- Safety & Reliability — Designed with improved safety features for abnormally excessive voltage and an operating pressure relief vent per the LAK series specification.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- Power supplies — Bulk smoothing and output filtering on high‑voltage DC rails where 400 V capacitance is required and sustained ripple current is present.
- Industrial equipment — Energy storage and decoupling in equipment exposed to fluctuating voltages thanks to the LAK series’ enhanced abnormal‑voltage safety features.
- Power conversion modules — DC link and ripple suppression in converters and inverters operating at elevated temperatures up to 105°C.
Unique Advantages
- High‑voltage capability: 400 V nominal rating with 200–420 V range supports higher DC bus applications without compromising capacitance.
- High‑temperature endurance: Rated for continuous operation at 105°C with a 2000‑hour endurance specification, offering predictable life in hot environments.
- Robust ripple handling: 700 mA at 120 Hz and 805 mA at 100 kHz ripple current ratings enable reliable smoothing under real‑world AC ripple loads.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ22 mm × 45 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies PCB retention and mechanical mounting in power assemblies.
- Measured electrical stability: Low tan δ (≤0.20) and specified leakage current (0.73 mA) support consistent performance in filtering and energy storage roles.
- Safety features: Pressure relief and improved abnormal‑voltage protections reduce risk during abnormal voltage events.
