Overview of LNK2H152MSEF – 1500 µF, 500 V Screw Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LNK2H152MSEF is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 1.5 mF (1500 µF) capacitance at a 500 V rated voltage. Designed in a radial can with robust screw terminals and a compact φ51 × 130 mm package, it provides high-voltage bulk capacitance for general-purpose industrial and power applications.
Key value comes from its combination of high voltage rating, polarized screw-terminal mounting for secure connections, rated ripple-current capability, and a 5000-hour endurance at 85°C, all supplied in RoHS-compliant construction and cardboard packing for mass production use.
Key Features
- Electrical Capacity — 1.5 mF (1500 µF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, suitable where large energy storage or bulk filtering is required.
- High Voltage Rating — Rated for 500 V DC, consistent with the LNK series rated voltage range up to 500 V.
- Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 7.3 A at 120 Hz and 10.22 A at 10 kHz, enabling sustained AC ripple handling when used within specified conditions.
- Endurance and Reliability — Load-life specification of 5000 hours at 85°C with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current; capacitance change and dissipation factor limits are defined in the endurance criteria.
- Loss Factor (tan δ) — Specified tan δ (DF) of 0.2 (measurement at 120 Hz, 20°C), useful for predicting internal dissipation under AC conditions.
- Insulation and Voltage Withstand — Insulation resistance greater than 100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket; AC 2500 V for 1 minute applied between terminal and bracket shows no abnormality per series data.
- Mechanical / Mounting — Radial can with screw terminals and M5-compatible terminal pitch (φ51 case), providing secure bolted connections for high-current or high-vibration installations.
- Operating Range & Packaging — Rated category temperature range of −25°C to +85°C, supplied in cardboard packing and available for mass production supply.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as stated in the product series information.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power filtering — Bulk DC smoothing and energy storage where 500 V rating and 1500 µF capacitance are required.
- High-voltage DC link circuits — Screw-terminal mounting provides a secure connection for DC link or intermediate circuits requiring robust terminal clamping.
- Industrial power equipment — Suited to general-purpose industrial assemblies that need high-voltage bulk capacitance with defined ripple-current and endurance behaviour.
Unique Advantages
- High-voltage bulk capacitance: 1500 µF at 500 V gives significant stored energy per unit for applications requiring large DC capacitance.
- Secure screw-terminal connections: Radial can with screw terminals (M5-compatible on φ51 case) simplifies installation and improves mechanical reliability in demanding assemblies.
- Defined long-term endurance: 5000 hours rated life at 85°C under D.C. bias plus rated ripple current—useful for planning maintenance intervals and lifetime estimates.
- Measurable ripple handling: Published ripple currents at both low (120 Hz) and high (10 kHz) frequencies let designers size thermal and cooling margins accurately.
- Series-level insulation and voltage proof: Insulation resistance >100 MΩ at DC 500 V and AC 2500 V, 1 minute voltage proof between terminal and bracket support safe high-voltage operation.
- RoHS-compliant supply format: Supplied in cardboard packing for mass-production availability while meeting RoHS requirements.
