LNK2V152MSEF

The LNK2V152MSEF is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal radial can designed for general-purpose power applications. It provides 1.5 mF capacitance at a 350 V rating with screw terminals for robust electrical and mechanical connection.

Built for long operational life and stable performance, this Nichicon LNK-series part targets designs that require high-voltage bulk capacitance, high ripple capability, and dependable endurance in commercial and industrial environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 1.5 mF (1500 µF) nominal capacitance rated at 350 V DC, suitable where substantial high-voltage bulk capacitance is required.
• Endurance — Load-life rating of 5000 hours at 85°C with D.C. bias plus rated ripple current applied; capacitance change remains within ±20% after life test per datasheet conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple capability of 6.5 A at 120 Hz and 9.1 A at 10 kHz, supporting designs with significant AC ripple on the DC rail.
• Electrical Losses — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2 (measurement conditions per datasheet), allowing assessment of dissipation behavior.
• Temperature Range & Stability — Operating range from −25°C to +85°C with specified impedance ratio Z(−25°C)/Z(+20°C) of 8 (for rated voltage 350 V), enabling predictable performance over the stated range.
• Screw Terminal Package — Radial can with screw terminals (M5 bolt nominal for φ51 diameter), designed for secure, low-resistance connections in high-current assemblies.
• Leakage & Insulation — Leakage current limited to not more than 3√(C·V) µA or 5 mA (whichever is smaller) after 5 minutes at 20°C; insulation resistance greater than 100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket.
• Mechanical Size — Diameter φ51 mm with length 75 mm (listed as L: 7.5 × D: 5.1 cm) and a maximum seated height of 2.953 inches, suitable for rack- or chassis-mounted power assemblies.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant per product data.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Designed for general-purpose applications that require 1.5 mF at 350 V and screw-terminal mounting for reliable connections.
• High-voltage bulk capacitance — Suited to circuits needing substantial energy storage and smoothing at elevated DC voltages within the specified temperature range.
• Screw-terminal assemblies — Intended for designs that require secure mechanical and electrical connections via screw terminals (M5 nominal bolt size for φ51 case).

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 350 V rating provides a straightforward solution for higher-voltage DC systems without parallel capacitors.
• Long operational life: 5000-hour endurance at 85°C under rated ripple conditions supports sustained performance in continuous-duty applications.
• Robust ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (6.5 A at 120 Hz, 9.1 A at 10 kHz) enable use where significant AC ripple is present.
• Secure screw-terminal mounting: Radial can with screw terminals simplifies installation and provides low-resistance, mechanically robust connections.
• Predictable low-temperature behavior: Specified impedance ratio at −25°C helps designers account for performance changes across the operating range.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance aligns the component with environmental requirements for many commercial and industrial products.
