LGGW6271MELZ50

The LGGW6271MELZ50 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal (radial can) format featuring 270 µF capacitance at a 420 V rating. It is offered in a compact 22 mm × 50 mm package and is RoHS compliant.

Designed for general-purpose applications and equipment downsizing, this part combines a high-voltage rating with 105°C operating capability and defined endurance characteristics from the Nichicon LGG series.

Key Features

• Electrical performance — 270 µF rated capacitance with a ±20% tolerance and a 420 V rated voltage.
• Package & mounting — Snap-in terminal, radial can construction sized D: 22 mm × L: 50 mm for compact board installation; one rank smaller case than LGN (LGG series characteristic).
• Temperature & endurance — Operating temperature range −25°C to +105°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple handling — Specified ripple current of 1.15 A at 120 Hz and 1.645 A at 100 kHz for defined AC stress capability.
• Leakage and dissipation — Leakage current defined by I ≤ 3√(C·V) (μA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified with a maximum of 0.15 up to 420 V (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Polarized, general-purpose design — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction intended for general-purpose use in the LGG series.
• Regulatory compliance — Compliant to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power modules — Suitable where a 270 µF, 420 V polarized capacitor is required for general-purpose circuitry.
• Equipment downsizing — Part of the LGG series offering one-rank-smaller case sizes relative to LGN, helping designers reduce component footprint.
• High-temperature environments — Suited for designs that require operation up to 105°C with specified 2000-hour endurance at that temperature.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, snap-in form factor — 22 mm × 50 mm radial can with snap-in terminals suits compact PCBs and mechanical retention needs.
• High-voltage capability — 420 V rating supports higher DC bus applications within the LGG series voltage range.
• Defined endurance at elevated temperature — Endurance specified for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions, providing predictable life performance.
• Quantified ripple specifications — Ripple current values provided at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow engineers to size for AC stress and thermal considerations.
• Measured leakage and loss limits — Leakage current and tan δ specifications enable predictable electrical behavior after application of rated voltage.
• RoHS compliance — Manufactured in accordance with RoHS (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863) requirements.
