LAKW6101MELB25ZB

The LAKW6101MELB25ZB is a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can package. It provides 100 µF capacitance at a 420 V rated voltage and is intended for general‑purpose applications.

Designed for high‑temperature operation and abnormal voltage tolerance, this unit withstands 2000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C and includes improved safety features for use in equipment subject to voltage fluctuations. It is compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 420 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of ±20%.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C and specified to withstand 2000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C.
• Snap‑In Terminal / Package — Snap‑in radial can package for secure board mounting and mechanical stability; dimensional footprint L: 2.5 × D: 3 cm.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 690 mA at 120 Hz and 793.5 mA at 100 kHz for reliable smoothing under AC/D.C. ripple stress.
• Safety & Reliability — Improved safety features for abnormally excessive voltage and a pressure relief vent designed to operate without flames or dispersion of case pieces.
• Environmental Compliance — Complies with RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Power Electronics — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple endurance for general power supply and filtering needs.
• Industrial Equipment in Fluctuating Voltage Environments — Suited for systems exposed to variable or unstable line conditions thanks to abnormal‑voltage tolerance and safety venting.
• Higher‑Voltage Electronic Assemblies — 420 V rating supports higher‑voltage designs requiring snap‑in mounting and robust temperature endurance.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Rating: 420 V nominal rating enables use in higher‑voltage circuits without additional series devices.
• Extended High‑Temperature Life: Specified 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current for long‑term stability in hot environments.
• Snap‑In Mounting: Radial snap‑in can simplifies board assembly and provides secure mechanical retention for power modules.
• Frequency‑Versatile Ripple Handling: Defined ripple current at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz supports performance across common low and high ripple frequencies.
• Built‑In Safety Features: Pressure relief vent and improved abnormal‑voltage design reduce risk of dangerous failure modes during overvoltage events.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS conformity supports use in designs requiring restricted‑substance compliance.
