LKG1K222MESBBK

The LKG1K222MESBBK is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in radial can package from Nichicon’s LKG series, designed for audio equipment applications. It combines a 2.2 mF capacitance and an 80 V rated voltage in a compact φ30 × 40 mm form factor suitable for chassis and PCB power sections.

Configured for audio use, the part offers a specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.25, a rated ripple current of 3.15 A (at 120 Hz), leakage current of 1250 µA, and endurance specified for 1000 hours at 85 °C. Polarized with ±20% capacitance tolerance, it is intended where high capacitance, voltage headroom and reliable operation at elevated temperature are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Capacity & Voltage — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) rated capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance.
• Audio‑oriented Performance — Part of the LKG series developed for high‑grade audio equipment; specifications and construction emphasize sound quality for audio power supplies and filtering.
• Loss and Leakage — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.25 (measured at 120 Hz) and leakage current value of 1250 µA, enabling predictable behavior in audio circuits.
• Ripple Current & Endurance — Rated ripple current of 3.15 A at 120 Hz; endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85 °C with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ and leakage current.
• Mounting & Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ30 × 40 mm) for secure mechanical attachment in power sections or chassis assemblies.
• Temperature Range & Compliance — Operating temperature −40 °C to +85 °C and RoHS‑compliant construction.
