LGY1J222MELA30

The LGY1J222MELA30 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LGY series designed for long-life industrial power applications. It provides 2200 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating in a compact φ25 × 30 mm can with snap-in mounting for secure chassis or PCB installation.

Engineered for reliability, this part supports continuous operation from −40°C to +105°C with a 5000 hour endurance rating at 105°C, making it suitable for industrial power supplies, ballast circuits, and other general-purpose power systems where sustained ripple handling and long service life are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2200 µF (2.2 mF) rated at 63 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage and smoothing for power rails.
• High-temperature long life — Designed for 5000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated ripple current, supporting sustained high-temperature operation.
• Ripple current capability — 1800 mA (1.8 A) at 120 Hz and 2070 mA (2.07 A) at 50 kHz frequency coefficients, enabling effective ripple handling in power supply and ballast applications.
• Low dissipation — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.25 at 20°C and 120 Hz (63 V rating), supporting efficient AC performance and reduced heating.
• Leakage — Specified leakage current of 1110 µA, measured after voltage application at 20°C.
• Package & mounting — Radial, can-style snap-in package (φ25 × 30 mm) for robust snap-in mounting and straightforward mechanical retention.
• Wide operating range — Rated for −40°C to +105°C operation, suitable for varied industrial environments.
• Compliance & availability — RoHS compliant, tray packed and in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and energy storage where long endurance at elevated temperatures and high ripple currents are required.
• Ballast Circuits — Designed for ballast application use with sustained ripple handling and long-life performance at 105°C.
• General Purpose Power Systems — Smoothing, decoupling and energy buffering in general-purpose power electronics and control equipment.

Unique Advantages

• Long-life assurance: 5000 hour rating at 105°C provides predictable end-of-life behavior and design stability for high-temperature deployments.
• High ripple capacity: 1.8 A (120 Hz) and 2.07 A (50 kHz) ripple ratings reduce heating and extend service life in ripple-intensive applications.
• Compact snap-in form factor: φ25 × 30 mm radial can with snap-in terminals simplifies mechanical installation and secures the capacitor in chassis or PCB-mounted assemblies.
• Wide operating temperature: −40°C to +105°C capability supports operation across a broad range of environmental conditions.
• Measured electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ (0.25 at 63 V, 20°C/120 Hz) and defined leakage current ensure predictable AC loss and DC leakage behavior for design margin calculations.
• Production-ready and compliant: RoHS compliant with tray packing and mass production status for reliable supply in volume manufacturing.
