LGJ2Z271MELB15

The LGJ2Z271MELB15 from Nichicon is a snap‑in terminal, large‑can aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LGJ series. It provides 270 µF capacitance at a 180 V rating in a compact, low‑profile φ30 × 15 mm can designed for general‑purpose power applications.

Engineered for elevated‑temperature use, this part combines high ripple handling and a 2000‑hour endurance at 105 °C to support demanding power filtering and energy‑storage roles in industrial and electronic equipment.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF capacitance rated at 180 V, with tolerance of -20% to 20%.
• Ripple Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current 1.0 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 1.5 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective smoothing of AC‑to‑DC and switching noise.
• Loss Characteristics — tanδ (DF) of 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, supporting predictable dissipation characteristics in design calculations.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 660 µA for predictable standby and bias behavior.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range -40 °C to 105 °C with a rated life of 2000 hours at 105 °C, suitable for sustained high‑temperature operation.
• Mechanical & Packaging — Snap‑in mounting type in a radial can (φ30 × 15 mm) for secure chassis or board mounting; supplied in tray packing for volume production.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Use where 180 V DC bus smoothing and ripple reduction are required; ripple ratings (1.0 A @120 Hz, 1.5 A @50 kHz) match common switching and rectifier environments.
• Industrial power conversion — Suitable for general‑purpose converters and inverters that need stable capacitance and endurance at elevated temperatures up to 105 °C.
• Bulk energy storage for rails — Provides bulk capacitance for intermediate DC buses and power rails in systems that operate across -40 °C to 105 °C.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Rated for 1.0 A (120 Hz) and 1.5 A (50 kHz) ripple currents to address both mains‑frequency and high‑frequency switching environments.
• Elevated‑temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C supports long‑life deployments in hot operating environments.
• Compact low‑profile can: φ30 × 15 mm form factor provides substantial capacitance while minimizing installed height for confined enclosures.
• predictable electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ (0.20 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current (660 µA) help with thermal and bias budgeting in designs.
• Robust mounting and supply: Snap‑in terminal for secure mechanical retention and tray packing suited for production handling and assembly.
