LNK2H102MSEF

The LNK2H102MSEF is a Nichicon LNK‑series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a smaller-sized screw terminal can. It delivers 1,000 µF of capacitance at a 500 V rated voltage, intended for general-purpose power applications that require high-voltage bulk capacitance and secure screw-terminal connections.

Designed for systems operating between −25 °C and 85 °C with a rated lifetime of 5,000 hours at 85 °C under applied ripple current, this part balances voltage capability, ripple handling and mechanical convenience for medium-voltage DC applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1 mF (1,000 µF) capacitance with a 500 V rated voltage provides substantial bulk energy storage for high-voltage DC rails.
• Package & Mounting — Screw terminal, radial can package (can with screw terminals) for secure, low-resistance mechanical and electrical connections suited to industrial assemblies.
• Thermal Performance & Lifetime — Rated operating temperature −25 °C to 85 °C with a guaranteed load life of 5,000 hours at 85 °C when subjected to rated ripple current.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 4.2 A at 120 Hz and 5.88 A at 10 kHz to support applications with significant AC ripple on the DC bus.
• Polarized, Tolerance & Stability — Polarized electrolytic construction with ±20% capacitance tolerance (at 120 Hz, 20 °C) and low-temperature impedance behavior specified for −25 °C operation.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant, meeting applicable restriction of hazardous substances requirements.
• Compact Footprint — Smaller-sized LNK series design with physical dimensions of approximately L: 10 × D: 5.1 cm suitable where board-space and enclosure volume are constrained.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power supplies — Bulk smoothing and energy buffering on high-voltage DC rails where 500 V rating and 1,000 µF capacitance are required.
• DC link and bus capacitors — Use as a DC bus or link capacitor in power conversion modules that require secure screw-terminal connections and elevated ripple capability.
• Industrial power electronics — Energy storage and ripple suppression in industrial power assemblies and equipment with moderate ambient temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 500 V rated voltage enables use on elevated DC rails without series stacking, simplifying design.
• Screw-terminal reliability: Robust screw terminal mounting provides dependable mechanical and electrical connections for high-current, high-vibration environments.
• Designed for ripple load: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz support applications with significant AC components on DC supplies.
• Proven endurance at temperature: 5,000-hour load life at 85 °C under rated ripple current offers predictable long-term behavior in warm operating conditions.
• Regulatory alignment: RoHS compliance supports use in designs targeting restricted-substances requirements.
