LASW6560MELZ25ZB

The LASW6560MELZ25ZB from Nichicon is a 56 µF, 420 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can with snap‑in terminals. It is part of the LAS series designed for higher ripple capability in a compact snap‑in package and includes enhanced safety features for abnormal overvoltage conditions.

Engineered for general‑purpose and voltage‑fluctuating equipment, this capacitor delivers long endurance at elevated temperature and stable ripple performance, making it suitable for applications that require robust power‑side bulk or filtering components.

Key Features

• High voltage rating — Rated for 420 V to support high‑voltage power circuits requiring bulk capacitance.
• Capacitance and tolerance — 56 µF with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C for predictable filtering performance.
• Snap‑in radial package — Radial, can‑style snap‑in mounting for secure chassis or board installation; compact physical size: φ22 × 25 mm (L: 2.5 cm × D: 2.2 cm).
• High temperature endurance — Specified for operation from −25°C to +105°C with endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C when subjected to rated ripple current.
• Ripple current capability — Rated ripple current of 380 mA at 120 Hz and 437 mA at 10 kHz, with a frequency coefficient per series data to support higher frequency operation.
• Improved safety features — Designed with a pressure relief vent and permissible abnormal voltage characteristics to mitigate hazardous failure modes under overvoltage stress.
• RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose equipment — Bulk and smoothing capacitance in general-purpose electronic systems that require a 420 V, 56 µF snap‑in solution.
• Voltage‑fluctuating equipment — Suited to systems exposed to supply variations thanks to improved safety features for abnormally excessive voltage.
• High‑temperature operating environments — Applicable where sustained ripple at elevated temperatures is required, supported by a 2000‑hour endurance rating at 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Long high‑temperature life — 2000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated ripple current offers reliable performance in hot operating conditions.
• Compact, secure mounting — Snap‑in radial can delivers a space‑efficient package and robust mechanical retention for chassis or board installations.
• Consistent ripple performance — Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable designers to predict thermal and ripple handling across frequency ranges.
• Enhanced safety under overvoltage — Pressure relief vent and series‑level abnormal voltage allowances reduce risk during voltage transients.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliance supports environmental and regulatory requirements for modern electronic designs.
