LGU1H822MELB

The LGU1H822MELB is a Nichicon LGU series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can, specified at 50 V and 8200 µF (±20%). It is designed for general‑purpose applications that require high capacitance in a secure snap‑in package and operates across a wide temperature range.

Built for sustained operation, the part is rated for 3000 hours at 105°C with defined ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies, and is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 8.2 mF (8200 µF) nominal capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, supporting bulk energy storage needs.
• Snap‑In Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal type in a radial can (φ30×40L) for secure mechanical retention in chassis or PCB assemblies.
• High Temperature Endurance — Endurance rating of 3000 hours at 105°C when subjected to D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current: 3.71 A at 120 Hz; high‑frequency ripple current: 4.266 A at 50 kHz.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 1920 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.3 max at 20°C and 120 Hz for the 50 V rating.
• Operating Temperature — Rated for operation from −40°C to 105°C to accommodate elevated ambient conditions.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Electronics — Suitable where an 8200 µF, 50 V electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in package is required for DC bus or bulk storage.
• Power Supply Filtering — Used in designs that require defined ripple current handling at 120 Hz and higher switching frequencies.
• Chassis or PCB Mounted Power Modules — Snap‑in radial can provides robust mechanical retention for board or chassis installations.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance Density — 8.2 mF nominal capacitance offers substantial bulk energy storage in a compact φ30×40L package.
• Defined Ripple Capability — Explicit ripple current ratings at both low (120 Hz) and high (50 kHz) frequencies help designers size capacitors for real‑world operating conditions.
• Extended High‑Temperature Life — 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C under rated conditions supports longer service life in elevated temperature environments.
• Measurable Dissipation and Leakage — Specified tan δ (0.3 at 20°C/120 Hz) and leakage current (1920 µA) enable predictable thermal and leakage budgets in system designs.
• RoHS Compliance — Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmental and regulatory alignment.
