LLS1H153MELC

The LLS1H153MELC is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can designed for general‑purpose power applications. It provides 15,000 µF nominal capacitance at a 50 V rating and is supplied in tray packing for mass production use.

Engineered as an 85°C standard snap‑in capacitor, the LLS1H153MELC combines high bulk capacitance with defined ripple current capability and extended endurance (3,000 hours at 85°C) to support bulk smoothing, hold‑up and energy storage needs in industrial and commercial electronic systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 15,000 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 50 V, suitable for high‑capacity bulk storage and smoothing.
• Package & Mounting: Radial can, snap‑in terminal type for board mounting; supplied in tray packing for production assembly.
• Operating Temperature: Specified for –40°C to +85°C, matching the 85°C standard performance class.
• Endurance: Designed to withstand 3,000 hours at 85°C with DC bias plus rated ripple current applied; capacitance change remains within ±20% after the endurance test.
• Ripple Current Capability: Rated ripple current of 6.56 A at 120 Hz and 7.544 A at 50 kHz for managing AC ripple in power circuits.
• Leakage & Loss: Leakage current meets I ≤ 3√(C·V) (µA) after 5 minutes at 20°C; tan δ (loss tangent) for 50 V is specified (max. 0.30) at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Tolerance & Polarity: Capacitance tolerance is ±20% (–20% to +20%) and the capacitor is polarized.
• Physical Dimensions & Marking: Body dimensions L: 4.5 × D: 3.5 cm with a maximum seated height of 1.772 in; sleeve marked with white print on a black background.
• Compliance: RoHS‑compliant per the provided product information.

Typical Applications

• Power supply bulk smoothing: High 15,000 µF capacitance and 50 V rating provide substantial bulk energy storage for smoothing DC bus and hold‑up in industrial and commercial power supplies.
• Power conversion and inverters: Snap‑in mounting and high ripple current capability support filtering and energy buffering in power converters and inverter assemblies.
• Industrial electronics: Robust endurance at 85°C and a wide operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) suit general‑purpose industrial control and power management circuits.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance in a compact radial can: 15,000 µF at 50 V delivers significant energy storage for space‑constrained power designs.
• Snap‑in termination for production assembly: Radial, snap‑in terminals and tray packing simplify placement and secure mounting in mass production environments.
• Defined ripple handling: Specified ripple current values (6.56 A at 120 Hz; 7.544 A at 50 kHz) let designers size capacitive filtering with measurable AC endurance.
• Endurance‑rated for elevated operating conditions: 3,000 hours endurance at 85°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current supports reliability planning and long‑term performance expectations.
• Verifiable leakage and loss characteristics: Leakage current and tan δ specifications provide measurable electrical limits for quality and selection criteria.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS status supports deployment in regions and programs requiring restricted substances compliance.
