LNT1A474MSEB

The LNT1A474MSEB is a screw-terminal, radial-can aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LNT series, offering 470,000 µF (470 mF) capacitance at 10 V. Designed for general-purpose applications, it provides large bulk energy storage with high allowable ripple current and a wide operating temperature range.

Key value comes from its screw-terminal mounting for secure connections, high ripple-current ratings at both low and high frequencies, and an endurance rating at elevated temperature for demanding environments.

Key Features

• High Capacitance: 470,000 µF (470 mF) nominal capacitance for substantial bulk energy storage and smoothing.
• Rated Voltage and Polarization: 10 V rated, polarized construction suitable for DC applications.
• High Ripple Current Handling: 17 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 19.55 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support heavy ripple and transient currents.
• Temperature and Endurance: Operates from −40°C to +105°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at +105°C under specified conditions.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics: Specified leakage current up to 5000 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) listed as 2.4.
• Robust Screw-Terminal Package: Radial can with screw terminals (φ90 × 140L footprint) for secure mechanical and electrical connections.
• Tolerance and Compliance: Capacitance tolerance ±20%; RoHS-compliant and supplied in cardboard packing for mass production handling.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Filtering: Large bulk capacitance and high ripple-current capability make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and filtering in general-purpose power circuits.
• Energy Storage and Hold-Up: High capacitance at 10 V provides stored energy for short-term hold-up or backup functions in systems requiring DC energy storage.
• High-Ripple Environments: Elevated low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings support applications with significant ripple or transient current demands.

Unique Advantages

• Large Bulk Capacity: 470,000 µF delivers substantial energy storage in a single capacitor, reducing the need for parallel devices.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Performance: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 100 kHz support both mains-frequency and higher-frequency switching environments.
• Designed for Elevated Temperatures: Rated for operation up to +105°C with a 2000-hour endurance at that temperature, supporting sustained high-temperature use.
• Secure Screw-Terminal Connections: Screw-terminal radial can package (φ90 × 140L) enables robust mechanical fastening and reliable electrical connection for heavy-current applications.
• Defined Loss and Leakage Parameters: Specified tan δ (2.4) and leakage current limits (up to 5000 µA) provide predictable electrical behavior for design margining.
• RoHS Compliant and Production-Ready: RoHS status and cardboard packing indicate compliance and suitability for mass production handling.
