LKG1E272MESZBK

The LKG1E272MESZBK is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series designed for audio equipment. It delivers 2,700 µF (2.7 mF) capacitance at a 25 V rated voltage in a compact φ22 × 25 mm snap‑in can.

Engineered with audio applications in mind, the part combines an audio‑focused design with measured electrical characteristics: low‑frequency ripple capability of 1.7 A (120 Hz), a specified tan δ (DF) of 0.3 at 20 °C / 120 Hz, and a defined endurance of 1,000 hours at 85 °C. Status: End Of Life.

Key Features

• Audio‑Oriented Design Designed for high‑grade audio equipment and prioritized for high‑fidelity sound quality as part of the LKG series.
• Electrical Performance 2,700 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz/20 °C, rated for 25 V operation and a specified tan δ of 0.3 (20 °C, 120 Hz).
• Ripple and Leakage Low‑frequency ripple current rated at 1.7 A (120 Hz) and specified leakage current at 770 µA for predictable power‑filter behavior.
• Endurance and Temperature Life rating of 1,000 hours at 85 °C and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C for defined long‑term performance.
• Snap‑In Radial Package Snap‑in / radial can package (φ22 × 25 mm) for secure board mounting and tray packing for handling and assembly.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant, meeting the stated directive requirements noted in the LKG series documentation.

Typical Applications

• High‑Fidelity Audio Equipment Bulk energy storage and smoothing in power supplies for amplifiers and preamplifiers where audio performance is prioritized.
• Power Supply Filtering Decoupling and low‑frequency ripple suppression on 25 V rails in audio electronics and related consumer devices.
