Overview of LNU2G123MSEJ – Screw Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 12,000 µF, 400 V, 105°C
The LNU2G123MSEJ is a screw‑terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high‑voltage industrial power electronics. It provides 12,000 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating (part of a rated voltage range up to DC525 V) in a radial can with screw terminals.
Engineered for inverter and motor‑control environments, this capacitor is optimized for high ripple and high‑frequency regenerative voltages, with a 105°C operating rating and a specified load life of 5,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple conditions. It is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 12,000 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 400 V; rated voltage range specified up to DC525 V.
- High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for continuous operation from −40°C to +105°C with a specified load life of 5,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current.
- Ripple Current Capability — High ripple handling: 30.1 A at 120 Hz and 42.14 A at 10 kHz, enabling robust smoothing and energy buffering in high‑power circuits.
- High‑Frequency & Charge‑Discharge Performance — Designed to cope with high‑speed charge‑discharge and high‑frequency regenerative voltages typical of AC servomotor and inverter applications; endurance verified for 50 million charge‑discharge cycles (ΔV = rated ±0.3, 3 Hz).
- Mechanical & Mounting — Radial can package with screw terminals for secure, low‑impedance connections; physical dimensions L: 16.5 × D: 9 cm and a seated height of 6.496 inch are provided for mechanical planning.
- Reliability & Safety — Leakage current after 5 minutes at rated voltage is limited to 3√(C·V) µA or 5 mA, whichever is smaller; insulation resistance greater than 100 MΩ at DC 500 V and voltage proof of AC 2500 V for 1 minute between terminal and bracket.
- Compact High‑Voltage Design — High‑voltage capability in a smaller footprint than the LNT series, enabling space‑constrained power designs.
- Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies — Energy storage and filtering for inverter front‑ends and DC bus stabilization in industrial power supplies.
- Inverter and Motor Drive Systems — Handles high‑frequency regenerative voltages and supports rapid charge‑discharge cycles in AC servomotor and general inverter applications.
- Regenerative Braking and Energy Recovery — Buffers and absorbs high‑frequency regenerated energy from motor control systems.
Unique Advantages
- High Voltage Range: Rated to 400 V with variants up to DC525 V, enabling use across a wide set of medium‑voltage power designs.
- High Ripple Handling: Specified ripple current up to 42.14 A at 10 kHz reduces the need for parallel capacitance in high‑power circuits.
- Long High‑Temperature Life: 5,000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated ripple current provides predictable lifetime performance in hot operating environments.
- Charge‑Discharge Durability: Verified performance after 50 million charge‑discharge cycles supports applications with frequent energy pulsing.
- Smaller Footprint Compared to LNT: Delivers high‑voltage capability in a more compact package, helping optimize chassis space in dense power assemblies.
- Measured Safety Margins: Defined leakage current limits, insulation resistance, and voltage proof values give clear engineering constraints for system design.
