LGN2P182MELC50

The LGN2P182MELC50 is a Nichicon LGN series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal package. It provides 1.8 mF (1800 µF) rated at 220 V with a compact φ35 × 50 mm can and tray packing for production handling.

Designed for general-purpose use, this device offers a wide operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), rated endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C, high ripple-current capability, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for engineers specifying robust bulk capacitance in standard industrial and commercial designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.8 mF (1800 µF) nominal capacitance rated for 220 V DC with ±20% tolerance, providing predictable bulk energy storage for general-purpose circuitry.
• Snap-in Package — Radial, can-type snap-in termination in a φ35 × 50 mm profile for secure chassis or PCB mounting and simplified assembly.
• High Ripple Current Handling — Low-frequency ripple current of 3.11 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 4.665 A (100 kHz), supporting applications with significant AC ripple stress.
• Loss and Leakage Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and measured leakage current of 1880 µA, enabling predictable electrical performance.
• Elevated Temperature Endurance — Rated life of 3000 hours at 105°C (with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current applied), meeting long-duration thermal endurance requirements defined in the LGN series.
• Wide Operating Range & Reliability — Operating temperature from −40°C to +105°C and adherence to LGN series endurance and shelf-life specifications, supporting stability across varied operating conditions.
• Compliance & Availability — RoHS-compliant construction and currently in mass production; supplied in tray packing for production workflows.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Provides bulk capacitance and smoothing in general-purpose designs requiring 1.8 mF at 220 V with robust ripple capability.
• High-temperature environments — Suited for installations that must maintain capacitance and performance up to +105°C with a 3000-hour rated endurance at that temperature.
• Production assemblies — Snap-in, radial can construction and tray packing support efficient placement and mechanical retention in production workflows.

Unique Advantages

• High-value bulk capacitance: 1.8 mF at 220 V provides substantial energy storage in a single component, simplifying BOM for general-purpose designs.
• Robust ripple performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 100 kHz accommodate a range of AC ripple profiles encountered in power subsystems.
• Long thermal endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple and bias ensures sustained performance in high-temperature operation.
• Compact snap-in form factor: φ35 × 50 mm can with snap-in terminals enables reliable mechanical mounting while minimizing board footprint compared to larger cans in the series family.
• predictable electrical behavior: Defined tan δ (0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz) and measured leakage current provide engineers with verifiable parameters for design validation.
• Production-ready compliance: RoHS compliance and tray packing support regulatory requirements and streamlined procurement for volume assembly.
