LNR2C104MSEN

The LNR2C104MSEN is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal, radial can package from Nichicon's LNR series. It provides very high capacitance (100,000 µF) with a 160 V rated voltage and is offered for general-purpose power applications.

Designed to deliver bulk energy storage and high ripple handling in a rugged screw-terminal form factor, this capacitor combines long endurance (5,000 hours at 85°C) with defined leakage and loss characteristics for predictable performance in power systems.

Key Features

• High Capacitance — 100,000 µF (100 mF) nominal capacitance with a tolerance of ±20% at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing substantial bulk storage for power smoothing and reservoir needs.
• 160 V Rated Voltage — Rated for 160 V operation to support higher-voltage power rails.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 24.4 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 29.28 A (100 kHz) for demanding ripple and transient environments.
• Defined Loss and Leakage — tanδ (DF) of 0.25 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current specified at 5,000 µA for predictable electrical behavior.
• Rugged Screw-Terminal Package — Radial can with screw terminals and φ100 body (φ100 × 250 mm length); terminal hardware for φ100 uses M8 bolt dimensions per series drawing.
• Long Endurance and Temperature Range — Rated endurance of 5,000 hours at 85°C and an operating temperature range of −25°C to +85°C.
• RoHS Compliant and Production Ready — RoHS status: compliant; packaging in cardboard and product status: mass production.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Reservoirs — Bulk capacitance and high ripple-current capability support DC link smoothing and energy buffering on medium-voltage rails.
• Industrial Power Electronics — Suitable for general-purpose industrial systems where robust screw-terminal mounting and long endurance are required.
• Energy Storage and Filtering — High capacitance and defined loss characteristics make it suitable for filtering and reservoir functions in power conversion and conditioning equipment.

Unique Advantages

• Massive Bulk Storage: 100,000 µF delivers substantial stored energy in a single component, reducing part count for large-capacitance designs.
• High Ripple Handling: Rated ripple currents at both low and high frequencies accommodate a wide range of switching and line-frequency stressors.
• Robust Mechanical Termination: Screw-terminal, radial can package with M8 terminal hardware (φ100 body) simplifies secure electrical and mechanical connections.
• Predictable Endurance: 5,000 hours at 85°C specification provides a clear baseline for lifetime planning in thermal-stressed environments.
• Controlled Electrical Characteristics: Specified tanδ and leakage current values enable easier margining and simulation for power system designers.
• Compliance and Availability: RoHS compliance and mass-production status support procurement and regulatory needs.
