LGY1E822MELA30

The LGY1E822MELA30 is an aluminum electrolytic, snap-in terminal capacitor from Nichicon’s LGY series. It delivers 8200 µF at a 25 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is designed for long-life operation in demanding power applications.

Built for industrial environments, this snap-in can provides robust bulk energy storage and smoothing with a rated operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C and a 5000-hour endurance at 105°C. It is offered in tray packing and is in mass production with RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 8200 µF nominal capacitance at a 25 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable for bulk filtering and energy storage.
• Long-Life Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours of operation at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, enabling sustained performance in high-temperature applications.
• High Ripple Handling — 2100 mA low-frequency ripple current at 120 Hz and 2415 mA high-frequency ripple current at 50 kHz to support power supply smoothing and switching converter loads.
• Controlled Dissipation Factor — tan δ specified at 0.40 (maximum) measured at 20°C and 120 Hz for the 25 V rating, supporting predictable AC loss behavior.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1350 µA, measured after voltage application, for predictable standby and leakage characteristics.
• Robust Mechanical Design — Snap-in radial can package (φ25 × 30 mm) designed for secure board mounting in power modules and assemblies.
• Wide Temperature Range — Specified for operation from −40°C to +105°C to accommodate a broad set of industrial environments.
• Regulatory Compliance & Supply — RoHS compliant and available in tray packing for production-scale use; part of Nichicon’s LGY long-life series.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and energy storage in power supply rails where prolonged high-temperature endurance and high ripple capability are required.
• Ballasts — Designed for ballast applications as noted in the LGY series datasheet, providing stable capacitance and long-life under continuous ripple stress.
• General Purpose Power Filtering — Suitable for DC link and output filtering in converters and inverters that demand large capacitance and reliable long-term performance.

Unique Advantages

• Long-term reliability: 5000-hour endurance at 105°C ensures sustained capacitance and controlled tan δ over extended high-temperature operation.
