LGN2P471MELZ35

The LGN2P471MELZ35 is a snap‑in terminal, large‑can aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LGN series, offering a nominal capacitance of 470 µF at a rated voltage of 220 V. It is designed for general‑purpose power applications that require bulk capacitance, high ripple handling and a compact snap‑in radial can.

Key value propositions include high ripple current capability (1.48 A at 120 Hz and 2.22 A at 100 kHz), operation to 105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance rating, a compact φ22 × 35 mm case, and RoHS compliance — all supplied in tray packing and available in mass production.

Key Features

• Electrical capacity and rating: 470 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 220 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low loss characteristic: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.15 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), supporting predictable AC performance.
• High ripple current capability: Low‑frequency ripple current of 1.48 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 2.22 A (100 kHz) for demanding power‑handling applications.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current of 960 µA after rated voltage application, enabling controlled standby losses.
• Thermal and endurance performance: Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with an endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
• Mechanical and mounting: Snap‑in radial can package (φ22 × 35 mm) for secure board mounting and streamlined assembly; supplied in tray packing for production use.
• Compliance and availability: RoHS compliant and listed as mass production status from Nichicon.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering: Bulk capacitance and rated 220 V voltage make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and filtering in power circuits where space is limited.
• Power supplies and converters: High ripple current ratings support ripple handling in AC/DC and DC/DC conversion stages.
• Industrial control equipment: Durable 105°C operation and 3000‑hour endurance provide longevity for control panels and power modules operating at elevated temperatures.
• Energy storage and decoupling: 470 µF capacitance and controlled leakage enable effective energy buffering and decoupling in general‑purpose power electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for elevated temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions offers predictable lifespan for high‑temperature environments.
• High ripple tolerance for real-world power systems: Specified ripple currents of 1.48 A (120 Hz) and 2.22 A (100 kHz) reduce stress on upstream circuitry and improve system stability.
• Compact snap‑in form factor: φ22 × 35 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies PCB mounting while conserving board area compared to larger can sizes.
• Measurable, specified losses: tan δ = 0.15 at 20°C, 120 Hz allows designers to account for dissipation in thermal and AC performance calculations.
• Production ready and compliant: RoHS compliance, tray packing, and mass production status support volume manufacturing and regulatory needs.
