LNR2C683MSE

The Nichicon LNR2C683MSE is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal can package from the LNR series (Screw Terminal Type, 85°C standard). It delivers 68,000 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with a polarized design and robust mechanical screw-terminal mounting.

Designed for general-purpose power applications that require high capacitance and high ripple handling, the LNR2C683MSE combines long endurance (5,000 hours at 85°C) with substantial low- and high-frequency ripple-current capability to support demanding DC filtering and energy-buffering roles.

Key Features

• High capacitance: 68,000 µF (68 mF) nominal capacitance with tolerance ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• 160 V rated voltage: Designed for applications requiring a 160 V rating within the LNR series range.
• Screw-terminal mounting: Radial can with screw terminals for secure, serviceable electrical connections and robust mechanical mounting.
• High ripple-current handling: Low-frequency ripple current 22.3 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 26.76 A at 100 kHz, suitable for substantial AC ripple conditions.
• Endurance and reliability: Rated life of 5,000 hours at 85°C (endurance condition per LNR series); designed to meet specified capacitance, tan δ, and leakage current limits after life test.
• Loss characteristics: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.25 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), for predictable AC loss behavior.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current up to 5,000 µA after 5 minutes’ application of rated voltage (measured at 20°C).
• Form factor: Large-capacitance can: φ90 × 220 mm (diameter × length), packaged in cardboard packing and available in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Power supplies: Bulk smoothing and decoupling in general-purpose power-supply designs that require 68,000 µF at 160 V and high ripple-current capability.
• Power conversion: Energy buffering and DC-link smoothing where sustained ripple current and 5,000-hour endurance at 85°C are required.
• Industrial electronic equipment: General-purpose high-capacitance filtering for equipment designs that need a polarized, screw-terminal capacitor with robust mounting.

Unique Advantages

• Large energy storage in a single component: 68,000 µF capacitance reduces the number of parallel capacitors required for bulk storage.
• Secure, serviceable connections: Screw-terminal package enables robust electrical and mechanical attachment for high-current systems.
• High ripple tolerance: Specified low- and high-frequency ripple-current ratings support demanding AC ripple environments without derating beyond data-sheet limits.
• Durability at elevated temperature: 5,000-hour rated life at 85°C provides predictable long-term performance under sustained thermal stress.
• Measured loss and leakage limits: tan δ = 0.25 at 20°C/120 Hz and leakage current up to 5,000 µA provide clear, testable electrical limits for design validation.
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.
