LNR2A153MSEN

The LNR2A153MSEN is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LNR series in a screw‑terminal radial can package. It delivers 15,000 µF of capacitance at a 100 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is offered for general‑purpose power applications that require high bulk capacitance and secure screw‑terminal connections.

Designed for continuous operation across –40°C to 85°C and specified for 5,000 hours at 85°C, this unit provides a combination of high capacitance, defined leakage and dissipation characteristics (tanδ = 0.15), and robust mechanical mounting (φ51×80L body with screw terminals and standard 3‑leg bracket).

Key Features

• Core Electrical Performance: 15,000 µF nominal capacitance at 100 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable for large bulk energy storage and smoothing duties.
• Dissipation and Leakage: Specified tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.15 and an initial leakage current of 3,670 µA for predictable electrical behavior under rated conditions.
• Ripple Handling: Rated ripple current of 6 A at 120 Hz and 6.9 A at 100 kHz, enabling support for high ripple environments within the specified limits.
• Reliability and Endurance: Endurance rating of 5,000 hours at 85°C; series endurance data indicates capacitance change within ±15% and leakage current remaining at or below the initial specified value after endurance testing.
• Thermal Range: Operating temperature from –40°C to 85°C, matching the LNR series category temperature capability for 10–100 V rated parts.
• Mechanical & Mounting: Screw terminal, radial can package (φ51×80L). Units φ51 and larger are supplied with a standard 3‑leg mounting bracket and use M5 terminal hardware.
• Compliance & Packaging: RoHS compliant and shipped in cardboard packing; product is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose power systems: Bulk capacitance and screw‑terminal mounting make this capacitor suitable where large DC energy storage and secure connections are required.
• Industrial power supplies: High capacitance and 100 V rating support DC bus smoothing and energy buffering in industrial power modules within the stated thermal and endurance limits.
• High‑ripple environments: Specified ripple current at 120 Hz and 100 kHz enables use in applications with significant AC ripple components, constrained to the capacitor’s rated conditions.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance: 15,000 µF provides substantial energy storage to reduce voltage sag and support transient loads.
• 100 V rating: Supports higher‑voltage DC bus designs without the need for series capacitor arrangements, simplifying system design.
• Screw‑terminal security: Robust screw terminals and a standard 3‑leg bracket for φ51 size enable reliable mechanical and electrical connections in field or rack installations.
• Long rated life at elevated temperature: 5,000 hours at 85°C with defined post‑endurance limits helps plan maintenance and life‑cycle expectations.
• Predictable electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ and initial leakage current create a clear baseline for design and qualification testing.
• RoHS compliant and production‑ready: Meets RoHS requirements and is available in mass production with cardboard packing for handling and storage.
