LNT2E152MSEN

The LNT2E152MSEN from Nichicon is a screw-terminal, polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor specified at 1500 µF and 250 V. It is built in a radial can with screw terminals (φ51 × 80L) for robust bolted connections and serviceable mounting.

Designed for general-purpose power applications, the LNT2E152MSEN delivers high ripple-current capability and high-temperature endurance up to +105°C, providing reliable bulk capacitance where secure connections and extended thermal performance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.5 mF (1500 µF) rated at 250 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Screw-Terminal Mechanical Package — Radial, can-style body with screw terminals (φ51 × 80L) and M5 terminal bolt provisions for robust, low-resistance connections.
• Thermal & Lifetime Performance — Operating temperature range of −25°C to +105°C; rated for 2,000 hours at +105°C when subjected to rated ripple current (series life specification for 10 to 250 V range).
• Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 2.4 A at 120 Hz and 2.88 A at 100 kHz, enabling effective smoothing and energy buffering under AC ripple conditions.
• Leakage and Endurance (Series Data) — Series specifications define leakage-current limits and endurance testing after application of rated voltage and ripple current; capacitance and dissipation factor stability are defined under end-of-life and shelf-life conditions.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as indicated in product data.
• Packaging — Supplied in cardboard packing suitable for mass production handling.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — Serves as a polarized bulk capacitor for general-purpose circuits requiring 1500 µF at 250 V with screw-terminal mounting.
• High-temperature electronics — Suitable where operation up to +105°C is required, supported by a rated lifetime of 2,000 hours at +105°C for the 10–250 V range.
• Serviceable power modules — Screw-terminal configuration and robust can package make it suitable for panel- or module-mounted systems where secure, bolted electrical connections and field serviceability are needed.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 1500 µF at 250 V provides substantial energy storage in a compact radial can form factor (φ51 × 80L).
• Robust screw-terminal connections: M5-compatible screw terminals permit low-resistance, mechanically secure attachment for high-current or serviceable installations.
• High-temperature endurance: Rated to +105°C with a specified life of 2,000 hours at that temperature for the 10–250 V range, supporting demanding thermal environments.
• Defined ripple capability: Specified ripple-current ratings at 120 Hz and 100 kHz enable predictable performance in AC-ripple and switching environments.
• Series-proven reliability: Draws on LNT series endurance and shelf-life specifications for capacitance, tan δ, and leakage stability under rated conditions.
• RoHS compliance: Conforms to RoHS directive requirements for use in compliant designs.
