LGG2Z152MELA50

The LGG2Z152MELA50 is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGG series, offering 1,500 µF at 180 V in an ultra‑smaller‑sized package. Designed for general‑purpose power applications, it provides high ripple handling and extended high‑temperature endurance for equipment where board space and reliability matter.

Key value propositions include compact φ25 × 50 mm sizing for equipment downsizing, rated operation to 105°C with a 2,000‑hour endurance, and RoHS compliance for modern manufacturing requirements.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 1,500 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 180 V, with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with an endurance specification of 2,000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Supports 2,400 mA ripple at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 3,600 mA ripple at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective smoothing in power circuits across frequency ranges.
• Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 1.55 mA for controlled standby loss and reliable performance after voltage application.
• Compact Snap‑In Package — Radial can with snap‑in terminals in a φ25 × 50 mm footprint for secure board mounting and reduced assembly time; supplied in tray packing for production use.
• Series Design Benefits — LGG series is explicitly described as “Ultra‑Smaller‑Sized” and suited for equipment downsizing, providing one rank smaller case size than comparable LGN types in the same family.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power supply smoothing — Bulk filtering and energy storage in space‑constrained power modules where 180 V and high capacitance are required.
• Industrial and commercial equipment — Use in power electronics and control equipment that require reliable ripple handling and high‑temperature tolerance up to 105°C.
• Equipment downsizing efforts — Fits designs targeting reduced enclosure size thanks to the LGG series’ ultra‑smaller case and φ25 × 50 mm footprint.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint for space savings: φ25 × 50 mm snap‑in can delivers 1,500 µF in an ultra‑smaller-sized package to help reduce overall system volume.
• Designed for high‑temperature operation: 2,000‑hour endurance at 105°C provides predictable life characteristics under elevated operating temperatures.
• Broad ripple performance: Specified ripple current at both low and high frequency (2.4 A at 120 Hz, 3.6 A at 100 kHz) supports diverse power conversion topologies.
• Stable leakage behavior: Low leakage current (1.55 mA) minimizes quiescent losses and aids in predictable power budgeting.
• Reliable board mounting: Snap‑in radial can provides secure mechanical retention and is suitable for tray packing in mass production environments.
• Compliance for responsible manufacturing: RoHS status supports regulatory compliance in global supply chains.
