LGN2Z561MELA25

The LGN2Z561MELA25 is a 560 µF, 180 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can with snap‑in terminals, designed for general‑purpose power applications. It is a smaller‑sized, snap‑in terminal type rated for operation up to 105°C and polarized for DC use.

Engineered for high‑temperature endurance, this Nichicon LGN series part withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 105°C and is RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), making it suitable for demanding industrial and equipment power circuits that require compact, robust bulk capacitance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 560 µF nominal capacitance with a 180 V rated voltage for DC power rail filtering and energy storage.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Specified endurance of 3000 hours under rated ripple current at 105°C, supporting sustained operation in elevated ambient temperatures.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current: 1.5 A at 120 Hz and 2.25 A at 100 kHz, suitable for smoothing and decoupling in power conversion circuits.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style snap‑in package for secure board mounting; compact dimensions L: 2.5 × D: 2.5 cm and seated height up to 2.5 cm.
• Operating Range & Polarity — Polarized capacitor rated for –40 °C to +105 °C operation.
• Tolerance & Electrical Leakage — Capacitance tolerance ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20 °C). Leakage current defined by series specification (I ≤ 3/√C µA after 5 minutes at 20 °C).
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and energy buffering on DC rails where 180 V rating and high ripple tolerance are required.
• Power Conversion — Smoothing and decoupling in converters and commercial inverters that operate at elevated temperatures up to 105 °C.
• General‑Purpose Equipment — Reliable polarized capacitance for industrial and commercial electronic equipment that needs compact snap‑in mounting and long‑term stability.

Unique Advantages

• Long High‑Temperature Life: 3000‑hour endurance at 105 °C under rated ripple current provides predictable aging and service life for hot environments.
• Compact Snap‑In Package: Smaller case size (one rank smaller than LGU) and snap‑in terminals reduce PCB footprint while maintaining secure mechanical retention.
• High Ripple Tolerance: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (1.5 A at 120 Hz, 2.25 A at 100 kHz) support demanding power‑conditioning workloads.
• Wide Operating Range: –40 °C to +105 °C rating covers common industrial temperature requirements for robust deployment.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial products.
