Overview of LNC2G183MTEJ – Screw‑Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 18,000 µF, 400 V
The LNC2G183MTEJ is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw‑terminal, stud‑bolt mount package designed for high‑power industrial applications. With 18,000 µF capacitance at 400 V and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, it targets inverter and regenerative power environments where high ripple handling and long life are required.
Key value comes from high allowable ripple current, a 5,000‑hour load life at 85 °C, and a compact radial can footprint that supports stud mounting and robust mechanical attachment for power electronics assemblies.
Key Features
- High Capacitance & Voltage: 18,000 µF rated capacitance at 400 V provides bulk energy storage for DC buses and filtering in high‑voltage power systems.
- High Ripple Current Capability: Rated ripple current of 48.2 A at 120 Hz and 67.48 A at 100 kHz supports heavy AC ripple loads and high‑frequency switching environments.
- Load Life and Reliability: Designed for 5,000 hours of operation at 85 °C under rated ripple current; meets endurance and charge‑discharge life criteria described in the series datasheet.
- Temperature Range: Operational from −40 °C to +85 °C for use across a wide range of industrial ambient conditions.
- Package & Mounting: Screw terminal (radial can) with stud bolt mount for secure mechanical installation and reliable high‑current connections.
- Leakage and Loss Characteristics: Specified leakage current 5,000 µA and tan δ 0.2 for predictable performance in power applications.
- Compact Form Factor: φ90 × 205 mm (L) package (Size: L 20.5 cm × D 9 cm) offers high capacitance in a reduced footprint compared to related series.
- Compliance & Packaging: RoHS compliant; supplied in cardboard packing and intended for mass production use.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Inverters: Bulk smoothing and DC bus support in inverter power stages where high voltage and sustained ripple duty are required.
- Servo and Regenerative Drives: Energy buffering and regenerative voltage absorption in AC servomotor and drive systems.
- High‑Power DC Power Supplies: Filtering and energy storage for industrial power supplies that demand large capacitance at high voltage.
Unique Advantages
- Large energy storage at high voltage: 18,000 µF at 400 V supplies significant DC bus capacitance to stabilize high‑voltage systems.
- Designed for high ripple environments: High ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies enable reliable operation with switching power converters and regenerative loads.
- Proven endurance: 5,000‑hour rated life at 85 °C under ripple load provides predictable long‑term performance in continuous industrial duty.
- Robust mounting and terminations: Screw terminals with stud‑bolt mounting deliver secure electrical and mechanical connections for heavy current paths.
- RoHS compliant and production ready: Conforms to RoHS and is offered in cardboard packing for mass production deployment.
