LNT1C474MSE

The LNT1C474MSE is a screw‑terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s LNT series, delivering very high capacitance (470000 µF) at a 16 V rating. Engineered for general‑purpose power applications, it combines large bulk energy storage with high ripple current capability and a wide operating temperature range.

Designed as a radial can with screw terminals, this part is optimized for chassis or bracket mounting where secure electrical and mechanical connections are required; it is offered in cardboard packing and is in mass production.

Key Features

• High Capacitance & Voltage: 470000 µF (470 mF) nominal capacitance at a 16 V rated voltage, suitable for high‑capacity bulk energy storage.
• Capacitance Tolerance & Dissipation: ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified as 2.0 with measurement at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• High Ripple Current Handling: Low‑frequency ripple current 22.1 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 25.41 A (100 kHz), supporting heavy AC ripple conditions.
• Endurance & Temperature Range: Rated for 2000 hours at +105°C under rated ripple/voltage conditions; operating temperature range −40°C to +105°C.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 5000 µA (measurement condition per series specification at 20°C after voltage application).
• Robust Mechanical Package: Radial can with screw terminals (φ90 × 140L dimension; nominal bolt for φ90 terminals: M5), enabling secure, low‑impedance connections for high‑current systems.
• Regulatory Status: RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply bulk smoothing: Large capacitance and high ripple capability make this part suitable for bulk filtering and energy reservoir functions in power converters and DC rails.
• High‑current power modules: Screw‑terminal construction and high LF/HF ripple ratings support assemblies with substantial AC ripple or pulse currents.
• Industrial electronics: Wide operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and 2000 h endurance at 105°C support robust performance in demanding environments.

Unique Advantages

• Large energy density: 470000 µF at 16 V provides significant bulk energy storage in a single component, reducing the need for parallel capacitor banks.
• High ripple tolerance: Combined low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings (22.1 A and 25.41 A) enable reliable handling of both mains‑frequency and switching ripple.
• Secure screw‑terminal connection: Radial can with M5‑nominal screw terminals (φ90) ensures low‑resistance, mechanically robust connections for high‑current applications.
• Temperature and endurance specification: Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with a 2000‑hour endurance at 105°C, supporting long‑term reliability under elevated temperature and load.
• Clear electrical characteristics: Defined leakage current (5000 µA), tan δ (2.0), and ±20% capacitance tolerance simplify design verification and margining.
• RoHS compliance: Meets current RoHS requirements for restriction of hazardous substances.
