LLS1V472MELZ

The LLS1V472MELZ is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal radial can package, rated at 35 V with 4700 µF nominal capacitance (±20%). It is part of Nichicon’s LLS series and is specified as a snap‑in terminal type for standard 85°C applications.

Engineered for general‑purpose electronic use, this part combines substantial bulk capacitance with defined ripple‑current capability, a 3000‑hour endurance at 85°C, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable where reliable bulk energy storage and chassis‑mount convenience are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 4.7 mF (4700 µF) nominal at 35 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Snap‑in Terminal / Radial Can — Snap‑in mounting style in a radial can package for secure chassis or module installation; supplied in tray packing.
• Ripple Current Handling — Rated low‑frequency ripple current: 2460 mA at 120 Hz; high‑frequency ripple current: 2829 mA at 50 kHz.
• Endurance — Specified to withstand rated ripple current and D.C. bias for 3000 hours at 85°C with defined limits on capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current.
• Operating Temperature — –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range.
• Leakage Current — 1210 μA specified leakage current (after rated voltage applied under stated conditions).
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) — 0.35 maximum at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 35 V rating.
• Physical Size — Diameter φ22 × length 30 mm; size dimension listed as L: 3 × D: 2.2 cm; height seated max 1.181 inch.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Bulk Capacitance — Designed for applications that require 4700 µF of bulk capacitance at a 35 V rating with snap‑in mounting convenience.
• General Purpose — High Ripple Environments — Suited to environments where the specified ripple current capability (2.46 A at 120 Hz / 2.829 A at 50 kHz) is required to manage AC ripple under bias.
• General Purpose — Long‑Life Requirements — Appropriate where a 3000‑hour endurance at 85°C is needed to meet lifecycle expectations in standard temperature applications.

Unique Advantages

• Defined ripple performance: Explicit low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings allow designers to size capacitors against known AC stress levels.
• Long endurance at 85°C: 3000 hours life rating under rated ripple current and bias provides predictable aging behavior for product planning.
• Snap‑in radial package: Simplifies chassis or module installation and mechanical retention compared with loose can types.
• Measurable electrical stability: Specified tan δ and leakage current figures provide clear parameters for thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead‑free applications.
