LLS2G121MELZ

The LLS2G121MELZ is a snap‑in terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor delivering 120 µF at a 400 V rating. It is a polar, radial can capacitor designed for general-purpose applications that require high-voltage bulk capacitance and endurance under continuous ripple-load conditions.

Key performance characteristics include a rated ripple capability specified at both low and high frequencies, a loss tangent (tan δ) of 0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz, a specified leakage current, and a 3000 hour endurance at 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and available in tray packing for mass production supply.

Key Features

• Rated Capacitance and Voltage — 120 µF nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage, suitable for high-voltage bulk capacitance needs.
• Snap‑in Radial Package — Radial, can-type snap‑in termination for secure board retention and straightforward assembly in power cabinets and racks.
• High and Low Frequency Ripple Handling — Rated ripple current of 1.09 A at 120 Hz and 1.559 A at 50 kHz, enabling performance across common power and switching frequencies.
• Endurance — Specified to withstand 3000 hours at 85°C with rated ripple and DC bias applied, meeting the series’ endurance criteria after restoration to 20°C.
• Electrical Stability — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz and capacitance tolerance of ±20% at 120 Hz/20°C for predictable filtering behavior.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 650 µA after application of rated voltage at 20°C, supporting predictable standby and idle behavior.
• Operating Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −25°C to +85°C for 350–450 V range applications.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready — RoHS status compliant and available as a mass production item in tray packing.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Provides high-voltage bulk capacitance for smoothing and energy storage where rated ripple current and 400 V capability are required.
• High-voltage DC link filtering — Useful in DC link stages that require capacitors rated for 400 V with defined ripple handling at both mains and switching frequencies.
• Industrial power assemblies — Suited to equipment and modules that need durable, high-voltage electrolytic capacitance with a 3000 hour endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 400 V rating provides the margin needed for high-voltage bulk capacitance in a compact snap‑in can.
• Dual-frequency ripple specification: Explicit ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 50 kHz allow designers to size capacitors for both mains-frequency filtering and high-frequency switching conditions.
• Long endurance under load: 3000 hours at 85°C with DC bias plus rated ripple demonstrates sustained performance for continuous operation scenarios.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Defined tan δ (0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz), leakage current (650 µA), and ±20% tolerance support reliable filter and timing calculations.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Tray packing and mass production availability simplify procurement and assembly planning for volume designs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant to support environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic assemblies.
