Overview of LNT2A153MSEN – 15,000 µF, 100 V Screw-Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The LNT2A153MSEN is a Nichicon LNT-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal can package, offering 15,000 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating. It is built for general-purpose applications that require high bulk capacitance, robust ripple-handling and screw-terminal mounting for secure electrical and mechanical connections.
Key value propositions include high capacitance density, rated operation to +105°C with a 2,000-hour endurance at that temperature for this voltage class, and measurable ripple and leakage characteristics for system-level planning and thermal design.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 15,000 µF rated at 100 V provides large energy storage suitable for high-capacitance requirements.
- Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C with a life/endurance rating of 2,000 hours at 105°C for the 10–250 V voltage range.
- Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 7.8 A (at 120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 8.97 A (at 100 kHz) to support significant AC stress handling.
- Loss & Leakage Characteristics — Specified dissipation factor tanδ of 0.2 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and a listed leakage current of 3,670 µA for predictable electrical behavior.
- Screw-Terminal, Radial Can Package — Robust screw-terminal mounting with a φ63.5 × 100L can (dimensions L: 10 cm × D: 6.35 cm) for secure connection and easy installation in chassis-mounted power assemblies.
- Manufacturing & Packaging — RoHS compliant and supplied in cardboard packing; product is in mass production.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power systems — Provides bulk energy storage and smoothing in equipment that requires large-capacitance, high-voltage electrolytic capacitors.
- Industrial electronics — Fits chassis-mounted power modules where screw-terminal mounting and elevated ripple capability are required.
- Power supply filtering — Used where extended temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and measured ripple performance are necessary for stable DC output.
Unique Advantages
- High bulk capacitance at elevated voltage: 15,000 µF at 100 V enables significant energy storage in a single radial screw-terminal can, reducing the number of parallel components.
- Defined high-temperature endurance: Rated for 2,000 hours at 105°C (for this voltage range), providing clear lifetime expectations for thermal design and maintenance planning.
- Quantified ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow designers to size and predict heating and reliability under real-world AC stress.
- Predictable electrical loss and leakage: Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) and measured leakage current values support accurate impedance and discharge calculations.
- Secure mechanical connection: Screw-terminal mounting facilitates reliable electrical contact and mechanical robustness in chassis or bracket installations.
- RoHS compliant and production-ready: Mass-production status and RoHS compliance simplify procurement and regulatory acceptance.
