LGGW6181MELZ35

The LGGW6181MELZ35 from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGG series, rated for 420 V and 180 µF. It delivers a compact, high‑voltage solution in a φ22 × 35 mm can designed for general‑purpose applications and equipment downsizing.

Built for sustained operation up to 105°C with 2000 hours endurance, this mass‑production part balances high voltage capability, ripple handling, and a small footprint for assemblies that require reliable bulk capacitance in a snap‑in package.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 180 µF nominal with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• High Rated Voltage — 420 V working voltage suitable for high‑voltage power circuits that require robust DC capacitance.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −25°C to 105°C with 2000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current 850 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple capability 1.216 A at 100 kHz, supporting AC ripple stress across frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 820 µA (after rated voltage applied), providing predictable standby behavior.
• Package & Mounting — Snap‑in, radial can package (φ22 × 35 mm) for secure board mounting in compact assemblies.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant with Nichicon LGG series design and mass‑production availability.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Equipment — Provides bulk capacitance for general‑purpose circuits requiring 420 V, 180 µF in a compact snap‑in form factor.
• Compact Power Modules — Suited for equipment downsizing where a smaller case size and high voltage rating are required.
• Industrial Electronics — Designed for continuous operation up to 105°C with 2000 hours endurance under rated conditions.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 420 V rating enables use in higher‑voltage DC circuits without stepping up component count.
• Compact, Snap‑in Form Factor: φ22 × 35 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals supports space‑constrained PCB layouts and secure mechanical mounting.
• Broad Ripple Handling: Defined ripple current specs at both 120 Hz (850 mA) and 100 kHz (1.216 A) help designers assess ripple endurance across frequencies.
• Temperature Endurance: Rated for −25°C to 105°C operation with 2000 h endurance at 105°C, enabling reliable lifetime performance in elevated temperature environments.
• Predictable Leakage: Specified leakage current (820 µA) for predictable bias and storage behavior in DC applications.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant and produced in mass‑production volumes for accessible procurement.
