LNT2G102MSEF

The LNT2G102MSEF from Nichicon is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor providing 1000 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating. Designed as a polar, radial can with screw terminals, it targets general-purpose power applications where high voltage, sustained ripple capability and extended operating life are required.

Key value comes from its 105°C endurance rating with a 5,000-hour life at rated ripple conditions, high ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies, and a compact φ51 × 80 mm can size with screw-terminal mounting for secure electrical and mechanical connections.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 400 V and tolerance ±20% (–20% to 20%).
• High-Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from –25°C to +105°C with a specified lifetime of 5,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions.
• Screw Terminal Mounting — Radial can with screw terminals (M5 bolt nominal for φ51) for robust, low-resistance connections and straightforward installation.
• Ripple Current Performance — Supports 6.6 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 9.24 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective filtering under continuous ripple stress.
• Electrical Characteristics — Measured tan δ = 0.2 at 20°C, 120 Hz; specified leakage current 1890 µA (at measurement conditions), consistent with rated-voltage behavior.
• Form Factor & Packaging — Size φ51 × 80L (L: 8 × D: 5.1 cm) in a radial can with cardboard packing; product is in mass production.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Provides bulk capacitance and smoothing for 400 V systems where a robust, screw-mounted electrolytic solution is required.
• Power filtering and energy buffering — Handles continuous rated ripple currents at both low and high frequencies to stabilize DC rails in industrial and commercial equipment.
• Industrial electronics — Suited for general-purpose industrial modules that demand elevated temperature endurance and secure terminal connections.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature reliability: Rated for 105°C with a 5,000-hour endurance at rated ripple, supporting longer field life under elevated thermal stress.
• Dual-frequency ripple capability: Specified ripple current at 120 Hz and 100 kHz enables confident use across a range of switching and line-frequency conditions.
• Secure screw-terminal interface: Screw terminals provide low-impedance, mechanically robust connections for high-current applications and easier maintenance or replacement.
• Clear electrical specifications: Defined tan δ and leakage current values at 20°C/120 Hz and rated voltage enable predictable performance and easier design validation.
• Compact, serviceable package: φ51 × 80 mm radial can balances capacitance and size while facilitating mounting with available bracket options.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports inclusion in assemblies targeting restricted-substance requirements.
