LNT2A222MSE

The LNT2A222MSE is a Nichicon LNT series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal radial can. It delivers 2.2 mF (2200 µF) capacitance at a 100 V rating with a ±20% tolerance, designed for general-purpose power electronics where robust bulk capacitance and secure terminal connections are required.

Key value propositions include secure screw-terminal mounting for reliable bus connections, elevated operating temperature capability up to 105°C, and ripple-current handling suitable for demanding DC filter and smoothing applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) nominal with ±20% tolerance, providing substantial bulk energy storage for smoothing and decoupling.
• Rated Voltage — 100 V DC rating for higher-voltage power rails and mid-voltage DC applications.
• Screw Terminal Package — Radial can with screw terminals (φ35 × 80L) for secure, low-impedance connections to busbars and heavy-gauge wiring.
• High Ripple Current Capability — 2.4 A at 120 Hz and 2.76 A at 100 kHz, enabling effective handling of AC ripple and switching currents.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.12, supporting efficient energy transfer and minimized heating under AC stress.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current approximately 1400 µA, consistent with robust electrolytic performance after application of rated voltage.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operates from −40°C to +105°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C, suitable for sustained elevated-temperature use.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing on high-voltage DC rails to stabilize supply voltage and reduce ripple for downstream electronics.
• Power Conversion & Inverters — DC-link decoupling and energy buffering in converters where secure terminations and high ripple capability are important.
• Backup Power & Hold-Up — Energy storage for short-term hold-up and ride-through in UPS and standby power circuits.
• Motor Drives — Smoothing and transient absorption on drive DC buses to support motor control stages and reduce switching noise.

Unique Advantages

• Secure Screw-Terminal Connection: Facilitates robust mechanical and electrical attachment to busbars and high-current wiring, simplifying assembly and maintenance.
• High Voltage Margin: 100 V rating provides headroom for mid-voltage DC systems while maintaining compact form (φ35 × 80 mm).
• Designed for Elevated Temperatures: Rated for operation to 105°C with a defined lifetime at that temperature, helping maintain performance in thermal environments.
• Strong Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support applications with switching and AC ripple stress.
• Clear, Engineer-Friendly Specs: Tangible parameters—capacitance, tan δ, leakage, ripple currents, and lifetime—allow straightforward reliability and thermal budgeting in designs.
