Engineered with a TYPE‑III (Super Through) grade construction and RoHS compliance, this part combines a high voltage rating, substantial ripple capability, and a compact φ35×40L form factor for use in demanding audio power supply and filtering roles.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1500 µF nominal capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable where higher DC bus voltages and bulk energy storage are needed.
• Audio‑Focused Grade — LKG series design prioritizes high‑fidelity audio performance; this unit is TYPE‑III (Super Through) grade for premium tonal characteristics in audio equipment.
• Ripple & Loss Characteristics — Rated ripple current 3.75 A (120 Hz) and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2, supporting AC ripple handling and stable loss performance at the specified measurement conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1160 µA, measured per the product specification conditions, for predictable standby losses.
• Operating Range & Endurance — Operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C with a guaranteed endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage conditions.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can snap‑in package (φ35×40L) with snap‑in terminals for secure mechanical mounting and tray packing for handling; polarized design for correct system integration.
• Compliance & Marking — RoHS‑compliant; series marking is printed in gold on a black sleeve per LKG series documentation.
• Product Status — Listed as End of Life; verify availability and lead times when planning designs or procurement.

Typical Applications

• High‑Grade Audio Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing on power rails where 100 V rating and 1500 µF capacitance are required for stable supply to audio amplifiers.
• Audio Amplifier Stages — Energy reservoir and decoupling in amplifier power sections to support transient demands and reduce supply ripple audible in output stages.
• Audio System Subassemblies — Use in high‑fidelity equipment modules that require snap‑in mounting and compact high‑voltage capacitors for reliable board integration.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 100 V rating enables use on higher DC bus voltages without series stacking, simplifying design and reducing component count.
• Audio‑Centric Design: LKG series focus on high‑fidelity audio makes this capacitor well suited for applications where tonal quality and sound integrity matter.
• Robust Ripple Handling: 3.75 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz supports sustained AC ripple in power supply applications common to audio systems.
• Compact Snap‑In Package: φ35×40L radial snap‑in can provides a secure mechanical mount and straightforward PCB or chassis integration in audio equipment assemblies.
• Predictable Endurance: Specified 1000 hour life at 85°C under rated voltage gives a clear expectation for performance under elevated temperature conditions.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regions requiring restricted substances conformance.
