LKG1V822MESCBK

The LKG1V822MESCBK is an aluminum electrolytic snap‑in capacitor from Nichicon’s LKG series, engineered for audio equipment and high‑fidelity applications. It delivers large bulk capacitance in a snap‑in radial can package, providing robust ripple handling and stable performance across a wide operating temperature range.

This part combines 8.2 mF capacitance at 35 V with snap‑in mounting, a compact φ35 × 35 mm can size, and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for power supply smoothing and energy storage roles in professional and consumer audio systems.

Key Features

• High Capacitance — 8.2 mF (8200 µF) rated capacitance for substantial bulk energy storage and low‑frequency filtering.
• Rated Voltage — 35 V working voltage suitable for mid‑rail audio power supplies and amplifier rails.
• Snap‑In Radial Can Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can package designed for secure board retention and straightforward assembly into power modules and chassis-mounted supplies.
• Electrical Performance — Specified tan δ of 0.3 and ripple current of 3.3 A (120 Hz) to support sustained AC ripple currents common in audio power stages.
• Leakage Current — Initial leakage current listed at 1600 µA, consistent with large‑value electrolytic capacitor behavior and predictable for design margining.
• Operating Temperature & Lifetime — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance specification of 1000 hours at 85 °C.
• Tolerance & Polarization — ±20% capacitance tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C; polarized design appropriate for DC‑biased filtering applications.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements as indicated for the LKG series.

Typical Applications

• Professional Audio Amplifiers — Bulk smoothing and reservoir capacitance on power rails to support low‑frequency dynamics and stable supply voltages.
• High‑Fidelity Audio Equipment — Energy storage and decoupling in preamplifiers, integrated amplifiers, and DAC power supplies where sound quality is prioritized.
• Power Supply Modules — Large capacitance for input/output filtering and ripple attenuation in switching or linear supply sections within audio systems.
• Studio and Consumer Electronics — Robust ripple handling and long endurance for reliable service in continuously operating audio devices.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Energy Density: 8.2 mF at 35 V provides significant bulk capacitance to stabilize DC rails and support transient currents in audio circuits.
• High Ripple Capability: 3.3 A ripple current (120 Hz) reduces heating and performance drift in applications with steady AC ripple components.
• Snap‑In Mounting for Robust Assembly: Snap‑in terminals and radial can construction simplify mechanical retention and electrical connection in power assemblies.
• Designed for Audio Use: Part of the LKG series developed for audio equipment, aligning component selection with audible performance priorities.
• Wide Temperature and Proven Endurance: −40 °C to +85 °C range and 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C enable predictable lifetime behavior under elevated operating temperatures.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in designs requiring restricted‑substance conformance.
