LNT1C104MSEB

The LNT1C104MSEB is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s LNT series, offering 100,000 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a radial can with screw terminals. It is designed for general-purpose power applications that require large bulk capacitance, high ripple handling and robust thermal endurance.

With a wide operating temperature range and a construction optimized for secure screw-terminal connections, the LNT1C104MSEB supports designers needing reliable energy storage and smoothing in demanding environments.

Key Features

• High Capacitance — 100,000 µF (100 mF) provides substantial bulk energy storage for smoothing and decoupling in power systems.
• Rated Voltage — 16 V rated DC voltage suitable for low-voltage power rails and storage applications.
• Loss Characteristics — tanδ (DF) 0.6 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable AC loss behavior.
• High Ripple Current Handling — 9.6 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 11.04 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support substantial AC ripple and transient energy demands.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 3790 µA after rated voltage is applied, for predictable bias characteristics.
• Thermal and Endurance Ratings — Operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions (per series specification for 10–250 V range).
• Robust Mechanical Design — Screw terminal mounting and radial can package (φ51 × 100L / L: 10 × D: 5.1 cm) provide secure electrical connections and easy installation; φ51 terminals use M5 nominal bolt dimensions per series drawings.
• Capacitance Tolerance — ±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C to aid selection for bulk storage and filtering margins.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant as specified for the LNT series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on low-voltage DC rails where 100,000 µF and high ripple capability reduce voltage ripple.
• Energy storage and hold-up — Local energy reservoir for systems needing short-term energy buffering under transient loads.
• Industrial and equipment power systems — Provides bulk capacitance and high ripple endurance in industrial control and power conversion equipment operating within −40°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Extensive bulk capacitance: 100,000 µF enables significant energy storage in a single component, reducing the number of parts needed for bulk filtering.
• High ripple current capability: Rated ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support applications with substantial AC components and switching transients.
• Screw-terminal reliability: Screw terminals and a radial can package deliver mechanically secure connections for robust field and industrial installations.
• High-temperature endurance: Rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C (for 10–250 V range) supports long-term operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tanδ and leakage current values allow accurate thermal and leakage budgeting in power designs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports deployment in regions and products requiring restricted-substance conformance.
