LNR2C332MSE

The LNR2C332MSE is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LNR series, offering 3300 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with a ±20% tolerance. It is a general-purpose, radial can style capacitor designed for applications that require high bulk capacitance and robust ripple-current capability in a screw-terminal package.

Key value comes from its high-voltage rating, measured low- and high-frequency ripple current performance, and long endurance specification (5000 h at 85°C), making it a practical choice where dependable DC link or bulk energy storage is required in industrial and power electronics equipment.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 3300 µF nominal capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance for stable bulk energy storage.
• High Ripple Current Handling: Low-frequency ripple current of 4.7 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 5.64 A (100 kHz) to support substantial AC ripple in power systems.
• Electrical Loss (tan δ): tanδ (DF) 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing a specified loss characteristic for circuit design considerations.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 2170 µA after rated voltage application, enabling predictable standby and steady-state behavior.
• Endurance and Temperature Range: 5000 hours at 85°C endurance and an operating temperature range of −25°C to 85°C for long-term reliability in rated conditions.
• Package and Mounting: Screw terminal, radial can (φ35 × 120 L) for secure mechanical and electrical connections; supplied in cardboard packing and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply bulk capacitance — Provides high-value energy storage and ripple smoothing for 160 V-rated supplies and DC bus applications.
• DC link and inverter assemblies — Screw-terminal mounting and high ripple-current capability support robust connections and AC ripple handling in power conversion modules.
• Industrial equipment — Designed for general-purpose use where long endurance at elevated temperature (5000 h at 85°C) and predictable leakage are required.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 3300 µF at 160 V provides significant stored energy per component for compact power designs.
• Measured ripple performance: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow designers to size capacitor banks with frequency-dependent losses in mind.
• Screw-terminal robustness: Screw terminal package simplifies heavy-current connections and mechanical retention in demanding assemblies.
• Endurance-rated: 5000-hour life at 85°C provides a clear reliability target for thermal and lifetime budgeting in equipment design.
• Predictable electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ and leakage current values at defined measurement conditions (20°C, 120 Hz) aid accurate circuit modeling.
• RoHS compliant packaging: Cardboard-packed, RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental and handling requirements.
