LNT1C154MSEN

The LNT1C154MSEN is a screw‑terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LNT series, offering 150,000 µF capacitance at a 16 V rated voltage. Designed for general‑purpose power systems, it provides high bulk energy storage and robust ripple handling in a compact φ51 × 120 mm can with screw terminals.

Key value propositions include high capacitance for bulk decoupling, rated ripple current capabilities across low and high frequencies, and an endurance specification of 2,000 hours at 105°C for sustained high‑temperature operation.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 150,000 µF (150 mF) nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ): tan δ = 0.6 as specified at 20°C and 120 Hz, providing a measured indicator of dielectric loss under standard test conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance: Handles high ripple currents — 11 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 12.65 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) — enabling effective smoothing of AC ripple in power circuits.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 4,640 µA (per series datasheet leakage measurement practices).
• Endurance & Temperature Range: Rated for 2,000 hours at 105°C (load life for 10–250 V range) with an operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C.
• Mechanical & Mounting: Radial can with screw terminals sized for φ51 can diameter; nominal bolt size for φ51 is M5 and terminal pitch and dimensions follow the LNT series screw‑terminal layout.
• Packaging & Production Status: Supplied in cardboard packing and listed as mass production, RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply bulk decoupling: High capacitance supports energy reserve and voltage stabilization for DC power rails and bulk storage in power supplies.
• Power conversion and smoothing: Suited for smoothing ripple in converters and inverters where high ripple current capability is required.
• UPS and backup systems: Provides bulk energy buffering and transient support in uninterruptible power supplies and energy storage subsystems.
• Industrial power electronics: Useful in motor drive support, industrial controllers, and other equipment requiring large capacitance and robust thermal endurance.

Unique Advantages

• Very high bulk capacitance: 150,000 µF provides substantial energy storage for smoothing and hold‑up without parallelizing many smaller capacitors.
• High ripple handling across frequencies: Rated ripple currents of 11 A (120 Hz) and 12.65 A (100 kHz) allow the capacitor to manage both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple components effectively.
• Designed for elevated temperatures: 2,000‑hour endurance at 105°C supports sustained operation in thermally demanding environments.
• Screw‑terminal convenience: M5 screw terminals on a φ51 can simplify high‑current terminations and mechanical mounting for power assemblies.
• Industry‑ready packaging and compliance: Mass production availability and RoHS compliance streamline procurement and regulatory acceptance.
