LKG2A272MESBAK

The LKG2A272MESBAK is an aluminum electrolytic, snap‑in terminal capacitor designed specifically for high‑grade audio equipment. It belongs to Nichicon’s LKG series and the TYPE‑III grade, which emphasizes high tone quality through the use of gold‑plated terminals and low contact drag.

This 2.7 mF, 100 V polarized capacitor targets HD audio and professional audio designs where fidelity and power filtering are key. It is RoHS‑compliant and specified for operation from ‑40 °C to +85 °C with a published endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C.

Key Features

• Core Type: Aluminum electrolytic capacitor with snap‑in terminals for radial, can‑style mounting designed for audio applications.
• High Capacitance & Voltage: 2700 µF (2.7 mF) rated at 100 V to support bulk energy storage and power‑supply smoothing in audio power stages.
• TYPE‑III Audio Grade (Gold Tune / Super Through): TYPE‑III construction incorporates gold‑plated terminals and low drag design to meet high tone quality needs for HD audio equipment.
• Operating Range & Reliability: Specified for ‑40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85 °C; capacitance change after endurance is within ±20% and leakage current remains within initial specified limits.
• Ripple Handling: Rated ripple current of 3.55 A at 120 Hz, suitable for low‑frequency smoothing in audio power supplies.
• Packaging & Mounting: Snap‑in radial can (φ30 × 40L form factor, physical dimension L: 4 × D: 3 cm) for secure, repeatable panel/board installation.
• Environmental Compliance: Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High‑End Audio Amplifiers: Bulk filtering and power decoupling where high tone quality and stable supply rails support audio fidelity.
• AV Receivers and Home Theater Systems: Power supply smoothing for multi‑channel amplifier stages and transient current demands.
• Professional Audio Equipment: Power reservoir and ripple suppression in mixing consoles, studio amplifiers, and other pro audio gear requiring HD audio performance.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for Audio Fidelity: TYPE‑III grade with gold‑plated terminals and low drag construction targeted to meet high tone quality requirements for HD audio.
• High Energy Density: 2700 µF at 100 V provides significant bulk capacitance in a compact snap‑in can, useful for power‑supply smoothing and transient support.
• Assembly‑Friendly Snap‑In Package: Radial snap‑in mounting offers secure mechanical retention and straightforward assembly for chassis or PCB mounting.
• Thermal and Endurance Specification: Rated for operation from ‑40 °C to +85 °C with a 1000‑hour endurance at 85 °C, providing defined long‑term performance parameters for design planning.
• Measurable Ripple Capability: 3.55 A ripple current rating at 120 Hz enables designers to size capacitors for low‑frequency power ripple management.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports designs that must meet current environmental substance restrictions.
