Overview of LGU2F151MELY – 315V Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 150µF
The LGU2F151MELY is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for general‑purpose power applications. It provides 150µF of capacitance at a 315V rated voltage in a compact φ20×35mm can with radial snap‑in mounting.
This part combines high ripple current capability and long endurance—specified for 3,000 hours at 105°C—making it suitable for designs that require stable bulk capacitance, reliable ripple handling, and RoHS compliance.
Key Features
- Rated Performance — 150µF capacitance at 315V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120Hz, 20°C), providing defined bulk energy storage for high‑voltage circuits.
- High Ripple Capability — 820mA low‑frequency ripple current (120Hz) and 1.173A high‑frequency ripple current (50kHz), enabling effective smoothing under AC and switching loads.
- Thermal Endurance — Rated for 3,000 hours of operation at 105°C when subjected to DC bias plus rated ripple current, delivering predictable life under elevated temperature stress.
- Low Loss Characteristic — tan δ = 0.15 (max.) measured at 120Hz and 20°C for the 315V rating, supporting efficient performance with controlled dissipation.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 650µA, offering predictable off‑state behavior after voltage application.
- Package & Mounting — Radial, can snap‑in construction (φ20×35mm) for secure chassis or PCB mounting; supplied in tray packing and in mass production status.
- Operating Range & Compliance — Rated for operation from −25°C to 105°C (applicable for 315V parts) and compliant with RoHS requirements.
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power systems — Bulk energy storage and smoothing where a 315V, high‑ripple‑capable capacitor is required.
- Power supply filtering — DC bus and filtering roles benefiting from the part’s high ripple current ratings and long endurance at 105°C.
- Industrial and commercial equipment — Use in assemblies that need a compact, snap‑in electrolytic with defined lifetime and RoHS compliance.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple handling: 820mA (120Hz) and 1.173A (50kHz) ratings allow the capacitor to manage both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple stresses.
- Proven thermal life: 3,000‑hour endurance at 105°C under rated ripple and DC bias provides designers with a quantified longevity metric.
- Compact snap‑in form factor: φ20×35mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies mounting and mechanical retention in assemblies.
- Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ (0.15 at 120Hz, 20°C) and 650µA leakage current support reliable thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
- Production ready: Tray packing and mass production status streamline procurement and assembly for production programs.
- RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmental and regulatory alignment.
