LGR2E471MELB35

The LGR2E471MELB35 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGR series, engineered for long-life operation at elevated temperatures. It provides 470 µF capacitance at a 250 V rating in a radial snap-in can intended for general-purpose designs.

Key value propositions include 10,000 hours of endurance at 105°C, strong ripple-current handling across low and high frequencies, a wide operating temperature range of −40°C to 105°C, and tray packaging suitable for production assembly.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance at 250 V with tolerance −20% to +20%.
• High-temperature long life — Endurance of 10,000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions as specified for the LGR series.
• Ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.4 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 2.1 A (50 kHz), supporting significant AC stress handling.
• Wide operating range — Specified operating temperature from −40°C to +105°C.
• Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 1020 µA under standard measurement conditions.
• Package & mounting — Radial, snap-in can construction in a compact φ30 × 35 mm package (L: 3.5 × D: 3.0 cm); supplied in tray packing for production readiness.
• Compliance & availability — RoHS compliant and currently in mass production.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic equipment — Provides bulk capacitance for circuits that specify a 470 µF, 250 V polar electrolytic capacitor with long-life performance.
• High-ripple environments — Suitable where sustained ripple currents (1.4 A at 120 Hz; 2.1 A at 50 kHz) must be managed over long durations.
• High-temperature systems — Designed for applications that operate up to 105°C and require 10,000-hour endurance at that temperature.
• Production assemblies — Snap-in radial can and tray packing facilitate mechanical stability and efficient board/chassis installation for volume production.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature endurance: 10,000 hours at 105°C reduces replacement frequency and supports long maintenance intervals.
• Robust ripple handling across frequencies: Defined low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings help designers size components for both mains-frequency and higher-frequency switching environments.
• Compact, assembly-friendly package: Snap-in radial can in a φ30 × 35 mm form factor with tray packing streamlines installation in production workflows.
• Wide temperature capability: −40°C to +105°C operation allows deployment across broad environmental conditions.
• Regulatory compliance and supply status: RoHS compliant and available in mass production to support procurement and production planning.
