Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 10,000 µF nominal capacitance at a 25 V rated voltage, with a tolerance of ±20% (−20% to +20%).
• Audio‑focused design — Part of Nichicon’s LKG series designed specifically for audio equipment, prioritizing high‑fidelity sound quality.
• Mounting & Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ30 × 25 mm case) for secure mechanical retention and straightforward board assembly.
• Ripple current capability — Rated ripple current of 2.65 A at 120 Hz, supporting low‑frequency power handling in audio circuits.
• Temperature & reliability — Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C with a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C.
• Polarized electrolytic — Polarized construction suitable for DC power and bulk energy storage roles in audio power systems.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS‑compliant per the product data.
• Identification — Marked with gold‑color lettering on a black sleeve for clear product identification.

Typical Applications

• High‑grade audio equipment — Bulk energy storage and decoupling in amplifiers, preamplifiers, and other high‑fidelity audio modules.
• HD Audio systems — Meets the tone quality needs cited for HD Audio equipment in the LKG series documentation.
• Audio power supplies — Use where large capacitance and moderate ripple handling at 120 Hz are required for smoothing and reservoir functions.
• Systems requiring snap‑in mounting — Applications that benefit from secure snap‑in terminal retention in chassis or PCB modules.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance at moderate voltage — 10,000 µF at 25 V delivers substantial energy storage for audio power stages and smoothing circuits.
