LNR2E153MSEB

The LNR2E153MSEB is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LNR series, designed for general-purpose power applications requiring high capacitance at elevated voltages. It combines a 250 V rated voltage with 15,000 µF capacitance and a screw-terminal radial can package for robust electrical and mechanical connections.

Key value comes from its high ripple-current capability, long endurance rating, and wide operating range, making it suitable where bulk energy storage, smoothing, and reliable DC filtering are required in general-purpose power systems.

Key Features

• High Capacitance — 15 mF (15,000 µF) nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), delivering substantial bulk energy storage in a single component.
• 250 V Rated Voltage — Designed for higher-voltage DC applications where elevated voltage handling is required.
• High Ripple-Current Capability — 16.4 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 19.68 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) for effective ripple handling and thermal performance under AC superimposed on DC.
• Endurance and Reliability — Rated for 5,000 hours at 85°C with post-test limits of capacitance change within ±15%, tan δ up to 175% of initial spec, and leakage current within initial limits.
• Loss and Leakage — Specified tan δ (DF) 0.25 at 20°C and 120 Hz and maximum leakage current 5,000 µA after specified voltage application.
• Screw Terminal, Radial Can Package — Screw-terminal mounting simplifies secure connections for high-current or serviceable applications; package size φ90 × 140 mm (L: 14 × D: 9 cm).
• Operating Temperature Range — Specified for –25°C to +85°C at the 160–250 V rating, matching the endurance test conditions.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Where high bulk capacitance and elevated voltage rating are needed for DC filtering and energy storage in standard industrial or power electronics designs.
• Power supply smoothing — For designs that require substantial capacitance and high ripple-current capability to reduce voltage ripple under load.
• High-current DC bus support — Suited to systems that demand reliable ripple handling at both low and high frequencies thanks to specified ripple-current ratings.

Unique Advantages

• Large single-component energy storage — 15,000 µF at 250 V reduces component count compared to multiple smaller capacitors, simplifying layout and assembly.
• Robust ripple handling — Separate low- and high-frequency ripple-current specifications (16.4 A @120 Hz and 19.68 A @100 kHz) provide predictable thermal and electrical behavior across operating conditions.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature — 5,000-hour rating at 85°C with defined limits on capacitance, tan δ, and leakage current supports longer service intervals and predictable life.
• Screw-terminal mounting for secure connections — Radial can with screw terminals enables strong mechanical and electrical attachment for high-current paths and serviceability.
• Measured loss and leakage characteristics — Specified tan δ and leakage current values allow engineers to estimate dissipation and standby loss during design and verification.
• RoHS compliance — Meets regulatory requirements for restricted substances in applicable regions.
