LLS1K272MELB

The LLS1K272MELB is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal, radial can package. It delivers 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance at an 80 V rating with ±20% tolerance and is intended for general-purpose electronic applications.

Designed for robust ripple handling and long endurance, this Nichicon LLS series part withstands 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C and is RoHS compliant. Its snap-in form factor and polarized construction make it suitable for use where reliable bulk capacitance and secure board mounting are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C; rated voltage 80 V.
• Low-loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.2 maximum (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), helping control dissipation in AC conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1390 µA (after application of rated voltage conditions in product data).
• Ripple Current & Endurance — Low-frequency ripple current 2.91 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 3.346 A (50 kHz); rated to withstand 3000 hours of DC bias plus rated ripple current at 85°C.
• Thermal and Environmental — Operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C; RoHS compliant.
• Mechanical / Package — Snap-in terminal type, radial can (φ30 × 30L / 3.0 × 3.0 cm); tray packing and mass production status noted.
• Polarization & Mounting — Polarized capacitor with snap-in mounting for secure PCB installation.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Where 80 V, high-capacitance bulk storage and smoothing are required in a snap-in, radial can package.
• General-purpose electronic assemblies — For designs that need a polarized aluminum electrolytic with defined ripple current capability and 3000-hour endurance at 85°C.
• General-purpose industrial equipment — Suitable for applications requiring RoHS-compliant, tray-packed capacitors with robust mechanical mounting.

Unique Advantages

• High-capacitance solution: 2.7 mF (2700 µF) at 80 V provides substantial bulk energy storage in a compact snap-in can.
• Proven endurance: Specified to withstand 3000 hours of rated ripple current at 85°C, supporting long-term performance under continuous ripple stress.
• Strong ripple handling: Clear LF and HF ripple current ratings (2.91 A at 120 Hz; 3.346 A at 50 kHz) help designers manage thermal and ripple-related constraints.
• Packaged for production: Tray packing and mass production status facilitate repeatable assembly and procurement.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for environmentally conscious designs.
