LGY1K102MELZ25

The LGY1K102MELZ25 is a snap-in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's LGY long-life series. It provides 1000 µF capacitance at an 80 V rating with long-life assurance (5000 hours at 105°C), targeted for high-reliability power applications.

Designed for general-purpose power circuitry, this polarized radial can delivers practical ripple handling and low leakage for industrial power supplies, ballast applications and other systems requiring durable bulk capacitance in a compact snap-in package.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1 mF (1000 µF) rated at 80 V for bulk energy storage in power rails and DC link applications.
• Long-life Endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, providing predictable life in elevated-temperature environments.
• Operating Temperature Range: Specified for –40°C to +105°C to support a wide range of industrial operating conditions.
• Ripple Performance: Rated ripple current of 1.3 A at 120 Hz and 1.495 A at 50 kHz to support AC ripple handling in power supply designs.
• Leakage and Loss: Low leakage current specified at 840 µA and tanδ of 0.2, enabling stable performance under DC bias.
• Package & Mounting: Snap-in radial can (φ22 × 25 mm) for robust mechanical mounting and tray packing for production handling.
• Compliance & Availability: RoHS compliant and available in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies: Bulk capacitance and ripple handling make it suitable for high-reliability input/output filtering and energy storage in industrial PSUs.
• Ballast Applications: Designed for use in ballast circuits where long operational life at elevated temperature is required.
• General-Purpose Power Systems: Polarized snap-in solution for general-purpose power filtration and decoupling where durable, long-life capacitors are needed.

Unique Advantages

• Long 105°C Endurance: 5000-hour rating at 105°C provides designers with a predictable life profile in high-temperature deployments.
• High Voltage Capability: 80 V rating supports higher-voltage DC link and power rail applications without series stacking.
• Robust Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents (1.3 A at 120 Hz, 1.495 A at 50 kHz) help maintain thermal stability under AC stress.
• Low Leakage and Controlled Loss: 840 µA leakage and tanδ = 0.2 deliver stable leakage behavior and dissipation characteristics for reliable performance.
• Compact Snap-in Can: φ22 × 25 mm radial snap-in package offers a space-efficient, mechanically secure mounting option for power assemblies.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready: Environmentally compliant construction and mass-production status support procurement and production planning.
