LLS1V472MELA

The LLS1V472MELA is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LLS series, rated 35 V with 4700 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance. It delivers bulk energy storage and filtering in a radial, can‑style snap‑in package with a compact φ25 × 25 mm footprint.

Designed for general‑purpose use, this RoHS‑compliant capacitor combines high ripple‑current capability and long endurance — including 3000 hours life at 85°C — for applications that require sustained performance under continuous ripple and elevated ambient temperature.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 4700 µF nominal capacitance at 35 V — suitable for bulk filtering and energy storage where moderate voltage and high capacitance are required.
• Tolerance & Loss: ±20% capacitance tolerance with tan δ (DF) max 0.35 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, permitting predictable AC loss characteristics for design margin calculations.
• Ripple‑Current Endurance: Rated ripple currents of 2.43 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.795 A at 50 kHz (high frequency) provide thermal and AC stress handling for continuous operation.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 1210 µA, allowing designers to account for standby and quiescent currents in power budgets.
• Long Life at Elevated Temperature: Endurance rated for 3000 hours at 85°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, supporting extended field life in demanding environments.
• Mechanical & Mounting: Snap‑in terminal, radial can package (φ25 × 25 mm) for secure board mounting and simplified installation in power assemblies.
• Compliance & Supply: RoHS‑compliant with tray packing and mass production status to support volume procurement and consistent supply.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Power Filtering: Bulk smoothing and decoupling in switch‑mode and linear power supplies where 35 V rating and 4700 µF capacitance are required.
• Energy Storage for Power Rails: Local energy reservoir for transient loads and start‑up current support, leveraging the capacitor’s high capacitance and ripple‑current capability.
• Industrial and Commercial Electronics: Use in control panels, power distribution modules, and other general‑purpose equipment that require durable capacitors with 3000‑hour 85°C endurance.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple‑Current Capacity: 2.43 A at 120 Hz and 2.795 A at 50 kHz allow handling of sustained AC stress without compromising performance.
• Extended Endurance at 85°C: 3000‑hour rated life at 85°C validates long‑term operation under elevated temperature and ripple conditions.
• Predictable Electrical Loss: Specified tan δ of 0.35 (35 V, 120 Hz, 20°C) enables accurate thermal and loss budgeting in power designs.
• Compact Snap‑In Form Factor: φ25 × 25 mm radial can with snap‑in terminals simplifies mounting and provides mechanical stability in assemblies.
• Production‑Ready Packaging: Tray packing and mass production status support efficient procurement and high‑volume assembly workflows.
• RoHS‑Compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for regulatory and environmental conformity.
