Overview of LGU2P271MELZ – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 270 µF, 220 V

The LGU2P271MELZ is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 270 µF and 220 V, designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It is a 105 °C standard snap-in can capacitor offering a compact footprint (φ22 × 30 mm) and tray packing for mass production.

This part delivers a combination of long endurance, specified ripple capability, and low dissipation for applications that require reliable DC filtering and energy storage at elevated temperatures. Key attributes include a 3000-hour endurance at 105 °C, specified ripple current ratings, and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance with a 220 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suited for circuits requiring mid-range capacitance at higher working voltages.
  • Snap-in Terminal / Package — Radial, can-style snap-in package designed for secure mechanical mounting and straightforward board insertion in production environments.
  • High Temperature Endurance — Specified for operation from −40 °C to +105 °C with an endurance rating of 3000 hours at 105 °C when exposed to rated ripple and DC bias.
  • Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 1.15 A at 120 Hz and 1.725 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective AC ripple handling in power circuits.
  • Low Dissipation (tan δ) — Specified tan δ of 0.15 at 20 °C and 120 Hz for the 220 V rating, indicating controlled internal loss for thermal management.
  • Leakage Current — Maximum leakage current specified at 730 µA, providing predictable DC leakage behavior after voltage application.
  • Compact Size & Production Packaging — φ22 × 30 mm can dimensions (approx. 3.0 × 2.2 cm) and tray packing for efficient handling in volume assembly.
  • RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for use in regulated environments.

Typical Applications

  • General-purpose power filtering — Smoothing and decoupling in power supplies where a 220 V rating and 270 µF capacitance are required.
  • Industrial control electronics — Bulk energy storage and ripple suppression in control modules operating up to 105 °C.
  • Consumer and commercial equipment — General DC filtering and energy buffering in equipment that benefits from snap-in mounting and tray packing for production.

Unique Advantages

  • Long-term thermal endurance — 3000-hour qualification at 105 °C demonstrates the part’s capability for sustained high-temperature operation under rated ripple and bias.
  • Defined ripple performance — Separate low-frequency and high-frequency ripple current ratings (1.15 A @120 Hz, 1.725 A @50 kHz) let designers size capacitors confidently across common ripple environments.
  • Predictable electrical loss — A tan δ of 0.15 at 20 °C/120 Hz provides a measurable basis for thermal and loss budgeting in designs.
  • Compact snap-in form factor — φ22 × 30 mm can with snap-in terminals saves board space while providing robust mechanical mounting for production assemblies.
  • Production-friendly packaging — Tray packing supports efficient pick-and-place or manual assembly workflows for mass production.
  • Regulatory conformity — RoHS compliance reduces material-restriction risk in regulated markets.

Why Choose LGU2P271MELZ?
