LNX2G472MSEHBB

The LNX2G472MSEHBB from Nichicon is a screw‑terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LNX series, rated at 4700 µF and 400 V. It is designed for general-purpose use in industrial power electronics where extra‑high voltage and high ripple handling are required.

Built for long service life, this radial can capacitor delivers 20,000 hours of endurance at +85°C under rated ripple conditions and is supplied in cardboard packing for mass production handling.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 4700 µF (4.7 mF) nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage for high‑voltage smoothing and energy storage.
• Screw Terminal Mounting — Radial can package with screw terminals provides secure electrical connections suitable for heavy current paths and robust installations.
• Long Endurance — Specified lifetime of 20,000 hours at +85°C when operated with rated ripple current, supporting extended service intervals.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current up to 12.3 A at 120 Hz and 17.22 A at 100 kHz to handle demanding AC ripple and switching loads.
• Operating Range — Specified operating temperature from −25 °C to +85 °C and capacitance tolerance of ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Leakage Current Specified — Leakage current after 5 minutes is limited to not more than 3√(C·V) µA or 5 mA, whichever is smaller (at 20 °C), ensuring predictable standby characteristics.
• Form Factor — Can dimensions: φ76.2 × 130 L (height 130 mm), suitable where high capacitance and voltage require a larger radial can form.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction for environmental compliance in production volumes.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — Energy smoothing and bulk storage in industrial power supplies where sustained ripple performance and 400 V rating are required.
• Inverter Circuitry — DC link and smoothing applications in inverter circuitry that demand high ripple current endurance and extended lifetime at +85 °C.
• General‑Purpose Power Electronics — Use where a robust, polarized electrolytic with screw terminals and long endurance is needed for high‑voltage designs.

Unique Advantages

• Extended operational life: 20,000 hours at +85 °C under rated ripple conditions reduces replacement frequency and supports longer maintenance intervals.
• Robust ripple handling: High ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies enable stable performance with switching supplies and high‑frequency workloads.
• Secure screw‑terminal connections: Facilitates reliable, low‑impedance termination for high current pathways and simplified field installation.
• High voltage capability: 400 V rating supports extra‑high voltage smoothing and DC link applications common in power electronics.
• Predictable leakage behavior: Defined leakage current limits provide designers with quantifiable standby and recovery characteristics.
• Production‑friendly packaging: Cardboard packing and mass‑production availability simplify procurement and board‑level integration for volume manufacturing.
