Overview of LNU2H272MSEG – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Screw Terminal, 2700 µF, 500 V
The LNU2H272MSEG is a high-voltage aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal can designed for industrial power applications. It provides 2700 µF capacitance at a 500 V rating with a robust screw-terminal package suited to high-current, high-frequency power environments.
Targeted at inverter circuitry, motor-drive and regenerative systems, this capacitor combines high ripple-current capability, long endurance at elevated temperature, and a compact high-voltage form factor for space-constrained power designs.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) rated at 500 V with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C), suitable for high-voltage DC bus applications.
- High Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 9.6 A at 120 Hz and 13.44 A at 10 kHz to handle both low-frequency and high-frequency AC components in power converters.
- Endurance at Elevated Temperature — 5000 hours life rating at 105°C under rated ripple conditions, designed for sustained operation in hot industrial environments.
- Wide Operating Range — Operating temperature from −40°C to +105°C for reliable performance across typical industrial temperature extremes.
- Electrical Characteristics — Specified tan δ (DF) of 0.2 and leakage current of 3480 µA, with polarized construction for DC bus and energy storage roles.
- Robust Screw-Terminal Package — Radial can with screw terminals and M5 stud compatibility for secure, high-current connections in power assemblies.
- Compact High-Voltage Form Factor — φ63.5 × 135 mm footprint (diameter × length) provides a smaller high-voltage solution within the LNU series.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for use in regulated global applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Power Supplies — Bulk and smoothing capacitor for inverter-fed power supplies where high voltage and sustained ripple handling are required.
- Inverters and Motor Drives — DC bus support and energy buffering in inverter circuitry and AC servomotor drives.
- Regenerative Systems — Handles high-frequency regenerative voltage and charge-discharge stress encountered in braking and energy-recovery systems.
- High-Speed Charge–Discharge Circuits — Designed to cope with repetitive high-speed charge and discharge loading in power conversion topologies.
Unique Advantages
- High-voltage capability in a compact can: 500 V rating with a φ63.5 × 135 mm envelope enables high-voltage DC bus designs without an oversized footprint.
- Dual-frequency ripple handling: Substantial ripple ratings at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz reduce thermal stress and extend service life under mixed-frequency loading.
- Long life at elevated temperature: 5000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple current supports continuous operation in demanding industrial environments.
- Screw-terminal robustness: M5-compatible screw terminals provide secure, low-resistance connections for high-current power assemblies.
- Wide ambient range: −40°C to +105°C operating range maintains electrical stability across common industrial temperature extremes.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports use in markets with restricted substances requirements.
