LNK2G152MSEF

The LNK2G152MSEF is a Nichicon LNK-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal radial can. It provides 1.5 mF of capacitance at a 400 V rating with a polarized design and is intended for general-purpose power applications.

Designed for long-term operation, the capacitor features a 5000-hour load life at 85°C, defined loss characteristics (tanδ 0.2 at 120 Hz, 20°C), and RoHS compliance, making it suitable where high-voltage bulk capacitance and secure screw-terminal connections are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 1.5 mF nominal capacitance at 400 V with ±20% tolerance, specified leakage current limit (≤ 3√CV µA or 5 mA after 5 minutes at 20°C), and a dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.2 measured at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Ripple and Endurance — Rated ripple current of 6.8 A at 120 Hz and 9.52 A at 10 kHz; load life specified as 5000 hours with DC bias plus rated ripple current at 85°C.
• Mounting and Package — Screw terminal radial can package with screw terminals and φ51 body size; terminal pitch and dimensions for φ51 include W = 22.0 mm and nominal bolt diameter M5 for secure bolted connections.
• Reliability and Electrical Safety — Insulation resistance greater than 100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket; voltage proof tested AC 2500 V for 1 minute.
• Environmental and Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863); packed in cardboard for production shipment.
• Package and Status — Radial, can with screw terminals; mass production status.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Provides 1.5 mF at 400 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in general-purpose power designs that require high-voltage capacitance.
• Industrial power supplies — Handles rated ripple currents (6.8 A at 120 Hz, 9.52 A at 10 kHz) and offers a 5000-hour endurance at 85°C for sustained operation under load.
• Control cabinets and panel-mounted modules — Screw-terminal mounting with M5 nominal bolt diameter enables secure, serviceable electrical connections in cabinet or module installations.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 1.5 mF at 400 V delivers substantial energy storage for high-voltage circuits requiring large capacitance values.
• Defined long-term performance: 5000 hours of load life at 85°C under rated ripple and DC bias gives predictable endurance for design validation.
• High ripple capability: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz support designs where ripple dissipation is a design consideration.
• Secure screw-terminal connections: Radial can with screw terminals and M5 bolt compatibility simplifies installation and maintenance in panel- or bracket-mounted assemblies.
• Quantified electrical characteristics: Clear leakage current limit and dissipation factor (tanδ 0.2 at 120 Hz, 20°C) allow accurate thermal and loss budgeting in designs.
• Compliance and testability: RoHS compliance, insulation resistance and voltage-proof test values provide verifiable quality attributes for production builds.
