LGY1H332MELA30

The LGY1H332MELA30 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGY series, rated 50 V with 3300 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance. It is designed for general-purpose power applications where high ripple handling and long life at elevated temperatures are required.

This part offers a compact radial, can-style snap-in package (φ25 × 30 mm) with RoHS compliance and mass production availability, making it suitable for industrial power supplies and ballast applications that demand dependable performance over extended operating periods.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 3300 µF capacitance at 50 V with ±20% tolerance; designed for polarized DC applications.
• High Ripple Capability — 1800 mA ripple current at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2070 mA at 50 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding filtering and smoothing tasks.
• Low Dissipation Factor — tan δ of 0.3 (max) measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting efficient operation in power circuits.
• Low Leakage — specified leakage current of 1210 µA after standard voltage application at 20°C.
• Long Life Endurance — rated for 5000 hours at 105°C under applied D.C. bias plus rated ripple current, with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current after endurance testing.
• Mechanical & Mounting — radial, can-style snap-in package (φ25 × 30 mm) for secure chassis or PCB mounting; tray packing for production handling.
• Operating Range & Compliance — operates from −40°C to +105°C and is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — bulk filtering and smoothing where sustained ripple current and extended high-temperature life are required.
• Ballast Applications — designed for the LGY series’ suitability in ballast designs that require reliable long-term performance.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering — decoupling and energy storage in power electronics and other general-purpose circuits.

Unique Advantages

• Long-duration reliability: 5000 hours endurance at 105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for designs exposed to continuous elevated temperatures.
• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents at both low (120 Hz) and high (50 kHz) frequencies reduce thermal stress and support robust power conditioning.
• Compact snap-in form factor: φ25 × 30 mm radial snap-in can simplifies mechanical assembly and provides stable mounting for high-current applications.
• Measured electrical stability: Specified tan δ and leakage limits enable straightforward design margins for loss and leakage budgeting.
• Production-ready packaging: Tray packing and mass production status support volume assembly and consistent supply.
• RoHS compliant: Meets regulatory requirements for lead-free assemblies.
