LLS2Z272MELC

The LLS2Z272MELC is a Nichicon LLS series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal can designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It offers 2700 µF capacitance at a 180 V rating and is specified for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C.

Engineered for applications that require bulk capacitance and durable ripple endurance, this snap-in capacitor supports prolonged operation under rated ripple current and is supplied in tray packing for mass production use.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 2700 µF capacitance with a rated voltage of 180 V (tolerance ±20%), providing substantial bulk storage for power circuits.
• Ripple Endurance — Rated ripple current: 5.3 A at 120 Hz and 7.95 A at 50 kHz, withstanding 3000 hours of rated ripple-current application at 85 °C per the LLS series specification.
• Temperature and Lifetime — Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C and a lifetime specification of 3000 hours at 85 °C under rated conditions.
• Package and Mounting — Snap-in terminal, radial can (snap-in) package for secure chassis or board mounting; physical size L: 5 × D: 3.5 cm (φ35x50L) for mechanical planning.
• Loss and Leakage Characteristics — Specified tan δ (loss tangent) maximum of 0.15 at the 180 V rating (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C) and leakage current defined by I ≤ 3√(C·V) μA after 5 minutes at 20 °C.
• RoHS Compliance — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements as indicated for the LLS series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic equipment — Bulk energy storage and smoothing in a wide range of electronic products designated for general-purpose use.
• Industrial power supplies — Filtering and bulk decoupling where prolonged ripple endurance at elevated ambient temperature is required.
• Power system subsystems — Energy buffering and DC link applications in equipment that utilize snap-in can capacitors for mechanical retention and serviceability.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance at high voltage — 2700 µF at 180 V enables substantial charge storage in a single component, simplifying designs that require large capacitance values.
• Designed for sustained ripple stress — Rated ripple currents (5.3 A at 120 Hz, 7.95 A at 50 kHz) and a 3000-hour endurance at 85 °C support longer service under continuous ripple conditions.
• Robust temperature window — Specified operation from −40 °C to +85 °C provides compatibility with a wide range of ambient conditions.
• Snap-in mounting for secure installation — Radial snap-in can simplifies mechanical attachment and is suited to production assembly and serviceability.
• Measurable electrical limits — Clear leakage current and tan δ specifications allow predictable performance verification during design and test.
• RoHS-compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmental compliance.
