Overview of LLG2C152MELZ50 – Aluminum Electrolytic Snap‑in Capacitor
The LLG2C152MELZ50 is a Nichicon LLG‑series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal format. It provides 1.5 mF nominal capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact, smaller case designed for equipment downsizing.
Engineered for general‑purpose power filtering and energy storage, this polarized snap‑in capacitor combines high ripple handling and a broad operating temperature range with RoHS compliance for commercial and industrial applications.
Key Features
- Capacitance and Voltage: 1.5 mF (1500 µF) nominal capacitance rated at 160 V, suitable for bulk energy storage and smoothing in power circuits.
- Compact Snap‑in Package: Radial, can‑type snap‑in mounting (Size: D 22 × L 50 mm / L: 5 × D: 2.2 cm) — one rank smaller case than LLS to support equipment downsizing.
- Ripple Current Performance: Rated ripple current 3.4 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 5.1 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), supporting heavier AC ripple conditions in power supplies.
- Temperature and Endurance: Operating temperature range –40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 85 °C under rated conditions.
- Electrical Characteristics: Polarized capacitor with ±20% capacitance tolerance and typical leakage behavior as defined in the LLG series specifications.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- General‑purpose power filtering: Bulk smoothing and energy storage in power supplies and converters for industrial and commercial equipment.
- Equipment downsizing projects: Applications where reduced case size is required while retaining high capacitance and ripple capability.
- Snap‑in power assemblies: PCB and chassis mounted power modules that require a robust snap‑in terminal capacitor for secure mechanical and electrical connection.
Unique Advantages
- Smaller case footprint: One rank smaller than LLS, enabling more compact power designs without sacrificing capacitance.
- Strong ripple handling: 3.4 A at 120 Hz and 5.1 A at 100 kHz ripple ratings support demanding ripple environments in power stages.
- Wide temperature range and proven endurance: –40 °C to +85 °C operation with 2000 hours endurance at 85 °C for reliable performance over time.
- High nominal charge storage: 1.5 mF (1500 µF) at 160 V provides substantial bulk capacitance for smoothing and hold‑up applications.
- RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for use in regulated markets and assemblies.
