Overview of LNU2G123MTEJ – 12,000 µF, 400 V Screw‑Terminal Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (105°C)
The LNU2G123MTEJ is a screw‑terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's LNU series. It is a high‑voltage, stud‑bolt mount, radial can capacitor rated at 12,000 µF and 400 V, engineered for industrial power electronics.
Designed for demanding inverter and regenerative applications, this capacitor combines high ripple handling and a 105°C, 5,000‑hour load life to support sustained operation in industrial power supplies, AC servomotor regenerative circuits, and general inverter systems.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 12,000 µF (12 mF) nominal with ±20% tolerance.
- Voltage Rating — Rated for 400 V DC operation.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated operating range −40°C to +105°C with a specified load life of 5,000 hours at 105°C.
- Ripple Current Capability — 30.1 A at 120 Hz and 42.14 A at 10 kHz, supporting high current and high frequency ripple conditions.
- Package & Mounting — Radial can with screw terminals and stud bolt mount for secure mechanical installation and high current connections.
- Physical Size — Large can: φ90 × 165 mm (L: 16.5 × D: 9 cm), designed for high‑energy storage in a compact LNU series footprint.
- Endurance & Reliability — Meets endurance criteria after D.C. bias plus rated ripple current for 5,000 hours at 105°C (capacitance and tan δ limits specified by datasheet).
- Leakage & Insulation — Leakage current specification: after 5 minutes, ≤ 3√(C·V) µA or 5 mA (whichever is smaller); insulation resistance >100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket.
- Compliance — RoHS‑compliant.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Inverters — Bulk energy storage and smoothing for power supplies used in inverters and drive electronics.
- AC Servomotor Regenerative Circuits — Handles high‑frequency regenerative voltages and rapid charge/discharge cycles in motor control systems.
