Overview of LGU1K222MELA – Snap‑In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 2200 µF, 80 V
The LGU1K222MELA is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It delivers 2200 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 80 V in a radial snap‑in can, offering robust electrical performance and long‑term reliability for industrial and electronic power systems.
This part combines a 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C with high ripple current capability and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for designs that require sustained operation at elevated temperatures and continuous ripple loading.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 2200 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), providing predictable bulk capacitance for power designs.
- Rated Voltage — 80 V rated voltage for higher‑voltage general‑purpose applications.
- Loss Characteristics — tan δ (DF) = 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting controlled dissipation in AC and ripple conditions.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current of 2.01 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 2.312 A (50 kHz), enabling continuous ripple handling in power circuits.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1250 µA, allowing designers to budget for standby and leakage behavior.
- Thermal & Endurance Rating — Operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C with a rated lifetime of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple and DC bias.
- Package & Mounting — Radial snap‑in can (φ25 × 35L) in tray packing for secure mechanical mounting and production handling.
- Compliance & Production Status — RoHS compliant and available in mass production.
Typical Applications
- General‑Purpose Power Supplies — Use where 2200 µF bulk capacitance and 80 V rating are required for energy storage and voltage stabilization in general‑purpose circuits.
- Industrial Power Electronics — Suitable for industrial systems that demand operation from −40°C to +105°C and sustained ripple current over long lifetimes.
- Chassis‑Mounted Designs — Snap‑in radial can footprint (φ25×35L) enables secure mounting in applications requiring robust mechanical retention and tray packaging for production.
Unique Advantages
- Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature — 3000 hours rated lifetime at 105°C ensures predictable performance under continuous high‑temperature ripple loading.
- High Ripple Handling — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (2.01 A at 120 Hz, 2.312 A at 50 kHz) support demanding AC environments.
- Clear Electrical Parameters — Defined tan δ, leakage current, and tolerance figures allow straightforward thermal and electrical budgeting in designs.
- Compact Radial Snap‑In Package — φ25 × 35L can with snap‑in terminals provides a balance of capacitance density and mechanical retention for panel or chassis assemblies.
- RoHS Compliant & Production Ready — Conforms to RoHS and is in mass production, simplifying procurement and regulatory planning.
