Overview of LGY1H392MELB25 – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 50 V / 3900 µF
The LGY1H392MELB25 is a snap-in terminal type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LGY series designed for long-life industrial applications. It delivers 3,900 µF nominal capacitance at a 50 V rating with polar construction and is intended for general-purpose power applications where extended high-temperature endurance is required.
Key value propositions include long life at elevated temperature, robust ripple-current capability across low and high frequencies, and a compact radial snap-in can package suitable for high-reliability power stages and ballast or industrial power supply use.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 3.9 mF (3,900 µF) nominal capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (–20%~20%).
- Power / Ripple Handling — Low-frequency ripple current 1.9 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 2.185 A at 50 kHz, enabling sustained ripple dissipation in power supply and ballast circuits.
- Dielectric Loss (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.3 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting predictable impedance and dissipation characteristics under specified conditions.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1,320 µA under the stated measurement conditions.
- Long-Life Endurance — Rated for 5,000 hours at 105°C, meeting the LGY series’ long-life assurance for extended high-temperature operation.
- Temperature Range — Operates from –40°C to +105°C to accommodate a wide range of industrial environments.
- Package & Mounting — Snap-in terminal, radial can (snap-in) package; size listed as φ30 × 25L and SizeDimension given as L: 2.5 × D: 3 cm; supplied in tray packing, mass-production status.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies — Provides bulk energy storage and ripple smoothing in industrial DC power modules where long life and elevated-temperature endurance are required.
- Ballasts — Suited for ballast applications noted in the LGY series documentation, offering sustained ripple handling and high-temperature reliability.
- General Purpose Power Filtering — Used for bulk filtering and decoupling in power conversion stages and power distribution where polarized electrolytic capacitors are appropriate.
Unique Advantages
- Long high-temperature endurance: Rated for 5,000 hours at 105°C, supporting extended service life in demanding thermal environments.
- Robust ripple capability: High low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (1.9 A at 120 Hz; 2.185 A at 50 kHz) help manage AC stress in power circuits.
- Predictable dissipation characteristics: Specified tan δ (0.3 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current (1,320 µA) enable deterministic thermal and loss budgeting.
- Board-ready snap-in package: Radial snap-in can construction and tray packing facilitate installation for through-hole power designs.
- Wide operating temperature range: –40°C to +105°C supports use across a variety of industrial ambient conditions.
- RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS directive requirements for lead-free materials.
