LAKW6560MELZ25

The LAKW6560MELZ25 is a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in radial can package, rated 420 V with a nominal capacitance of 56 µF. It is designed as a general-purpose high-voltage capacitor and is particularly suited for equipment operating in voltage-fluctuating environments.

Key value propositions include high-temperature endurance (105°C) with a verified 2000-hour ripple-current life, a snap-in mounting style for secure installation, and built‑in safety features for abnormal over-voltage conditions. The part is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Core Type & Mounting Polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial, snap-in can package for secure mechanical mounting.
• Rated Voltage & Capacitance 420 V rated voltage with 56 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• High-Temperature Endurance Capable of withstanding 2000 hours application of rated ripple current at 105°C; endurance test limits include capacitance change within ±20%, tan δ up to 200% of initial, and leakage current not exceeding initial specified value.
• Extended Voltage Series Series offers extended voltage range options (200 V, 400 V and 420 V); this part is the 420 V variant.
• Safety Features Improved safety design for abnormally excessive voltage; pressure relief vent is engineered to operate without hazardous ignition or dispersion of parts under test conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple current: 380 mA at 120 Hz and 437 mA at 10 kHz for this size.
• Electrical Characteristics Leakage current specification: I ≤ 3√CV (µA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tan δ ≤ 0.20 (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Operating Range & Size Operating temperature range −25°C to +105°C; physical size approximately 22 mm diameter × 25 mm length (snap-in radial can).
• Environmental Compliance Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Industrial equipment General-purpose use in industrial systems where voltage levels may fluctuate and robust high-voltage capacitors are required.
• Power infrastructure and high-voltage circuits Suitable for designs requiring capacitors rated up to 420 V in a compact snap-in package.
• Commercial electronics Applications that benefit from a high-temperature rated, snap-in radial capacitor for secure mounting and long-term stability.

Unique Advantages

• Predictable high-temperature life: 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions provides a defined endurance baseline for thermal design considerations.
• High-voltage coverage: Part of a series offering 200 V, 400 V and 420 V ratings, enabling selection across high-voltage applications with consistent platform characteristics.
• Enhanced safety design: Pressure relief vent and improved over-voltage behavior reduce risk under abnormal voltage stress.
• Measured ripple capability: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to match the capacitor to expected AC stress levels.
• Compact snap-in form factor: Radial snap-in can simplifies installation for chassis or PCB-mounted high-voltage assemblies.
• RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS directives for environmental and materials requirements.
