LNC2G182MSEFBN

The LNC2G182MSEFBN is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LNC series, designed for high-ripple, high-duty power applications. It combines a compact screw-terminal can with elevated ripple-current capability and a 400 V rated voltage for industrial power-electronics use.

Targeted at inverter and regenerative circuits, this capacitor offers a 1.8 mF capacitance and a 5000-hour load life at 85°C, making it suitable for industrial power supplies, AC servomotor drives and other high-frequency charge–discharge applications where long-term stability and high ripple handling are required.

Key Features

• High Voltage & Capacitance — Rated voltage 400 V with 1.8 mF (1800 µF) capacitance and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage in high-voltage power rails.
• High Ripple-Current Capability — Supports 12 A low-frequency ripple at 120 Hz and 16.8 A high-frequency ripple at 100 kHz to handle heavy AC and regenerative loads.
• Compact Screw-Terminal Package — Radial, can-style body with screw terminals and φ51 × 85L (51 mm diameter × 85 mm length) footprint for robust, serviceable connections in power assemblies.
• Endurance and Charge–Discharge Durability — Load life of 5000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple current; specified endurance for charge–discharge behavior including performance after 50 million cycles (ΔV = rated × 0.3, 3 Hz).
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics — Specified leakage current of 2540 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2 (measurement conditions per datasheet), enabling predictable loss and self-discharge behavior.
• Wide Operating Range — Operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C to suit industrial environments.
• Electrical Safety Parameters — Insulation resistance greater than 100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket and voltage proof of AC 2500 V for 1 minute as defined in the series datasheet.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), and is supplied in cardboard packing for production handling.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Inverter Power Supplies — Bulk energy storage and ripple filtering for inverter front-ends and DC-link circuits where 400 V ratings and high ripple current are required.
• AC Servomotor Drives — Supports high-frequency regenerative voltage and fast charge–discharge cycles typical in motor-drive regenerative loops.
• High-Frequency Regenerative Circuits — Designed for circuits that undergo rapid charge–discharge events and require stable performance over extended cycle counts.
• General Industrial Power Electronics — Use in industrial power supplies and other equipment requiring durable, high-voltage aluminum electrolytic capacitors with screw-terminal mounting.

Unique Advantages

• Higher Ripple Capacity in a Smaller Footprint — LNC series offers smaller-sized parts with higher ripple-current capability compared to preceding LNX/LNK series, enabling space-efficient designs without sacrificing thermal performance.
• Robust, Serviceable Connections — Screw-terminal mounting simplifies assembly and replacement in the field while providing a secure electrical connection for high-current applications.
• Long Operational Life at Elevated Temperature — 5000-hour rated life at 85°C under ripple current delivers predictable longevity in industrial environments.
• Durable Charge–Discharge Performance — Specified endurance through extensive charge–discharge cycling supports applications with frequent voltage swings and regenerative events.
• Predictable Electrical Behavior — Specified tan δ, leakage current and insulation resistance figures enable accurate thermal and reliability calculations during design validation.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliance supports use in products subject to restricted substances requirements.
