Overview of LKSN2562MESZ – Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor for Audio Equipment
The LKSN2562MESZ is a Nichicon LKS series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, smaller-sized can intended for audio equipment and general-purpose applications. It provides 5600 µF capacitance at a 56 V rating with a compact φ22 × 50 mm package.
Key electrical and reliability attributes include a rated voltage of 56 V, a low-frequency ripple current rating of 3.2 A (120 Hz), an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, and an endurance specification of 1000 hours at 85 °C. Status: End Of Life.
Key Features
- Core Type — Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Snap-in terminal radial can design providing high capacitance in a compact form factor (φ22 × 50 mm).
- Capacitance & Voltage Nominal 5600 µF capacitance with a 56 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
- Ripple & Leakage Low-frequency ripple current rated at 3.2 A (120 Hz) and specified leakage current consistent with the product datasheet (leakage data point: 1680 µA).
- Reliability & Lifetime Endurance: specified to meet performance after 1000 hours at 85 °C; leakage current, capacitance change and tan δ are characterized per the LKS series endurance test.
- Temperature Range Wide operating range from −40 °C to +85 °C suited to typical audio and general-purpose electronic environments.
- Packaging & Mounting Radial, snap-in can with tray packing; physical dimensions listed as φ22 × 50 mm (L: 5 cm × D: 2.2 cm) for straightforward panel or chassis installation.
- Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant as stated in the product and series documentation.
Typical Applications
- Audio Equipment — Specified for audio equipment in the product description; suitable where a 5600 µF, 56 V snap‑in capacitor is required in a compact can.
- General‑Purpose Power Filtering — Positioned for general-purpose applications that match the listed electrical and temperature specifications of the LKS series.
- OEM Replacement & Assembly — Tray‑packed snap‑in format and standard φ22 × 50 mm dimensions make it suitable for OEM assemblies and field replacement where this form factor and specification are required.
