LKS1H682MESB

The Nichicon LKS1H682MESB is a snap‑in aluminum electrolytic capacitor providing 6800 µF (6.8 mF) nominal capacitance at a 50 V rating. It is part of the LKS series, which is specified for smaller-sized, audio equipment applications and general-purpose electronic use.

Designed for bulk energy storage and low-frequency ripple handling, this radial snap‑in can (φ30 × 35 mm) delivers 3.15 A low-frequency ripple current at 120 Hz, with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C and a 1000 hour endurance at 85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 6800 µF nominal with tolerance −20% to +20% (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz).
• Voltage Rating — Rated for 50 V operation.
• Low‑Frequency Ripple Handling — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 3.15 A at 120 Hz for power smoothing and filtering applications.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 1740 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.3 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz.
• Endurance and Temperature — Rated endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C; operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C.
• Package and Mounting — Radial, snap‑in can sized φ30 × 35 mm (tray packed) for secure board mounting.
• Environmental — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment — Smaller-sized LKS series design intended for audio power stages and filter networks where bulk capacitance and compact footprints are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — DC link, reservoir and output smoothing in power supplies needing 6800 µF at up to 50 V and robust low-frequency ripple handling.
• General‑Purpose Electronics — Bulk energy storage and ripple suppression in industrial and electronic systems that use snap‑in mounting for secure installation.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance in a compact can: 6800 µF in a φ30 × 35 mm snap‑in package reduces the board area required for bulk storage.
• Robust ripple capability: 3.15 A low-frequency ripple current (120 Hz) supports effective smoothing in power stages.
• Defined leakage and loss characteristics: Specified leakage current (1740 µA) and tan δ (0.3 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) enable predictable electrical performance.
• Temperature and endurance specification: −40 °C to +85 °C operating range with 1000 hours endurance at 85 °C for predictable life in thermal environments.
• Snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in can offers secure mechanical mounting suited to through‑hole assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use where restricted-substance requirements apply.
