LNX2H222MSEGBB

The LNX2H222MSEGBB is a Nichicon LNX series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal can, rated 2200 µF at 500 V with a ±20% tolerance. Designed for general-purpose and industrial power applications, it delivers high ripple-current capability and extended endurance for demanding high-voltage circuits.

Key attributes include a polarized screw-terminal package, high-frequency and low-frequency ripple handling, and a 5000‑hour endurance at 85 °C, making it suitable where sustained high-voltage smoothing and reliable DC bias performance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage – 2.2 mF (2200 µF) rated at 500 V with ±20% tolerance for high-voltage energy storage and smoothing.
• High Ripple Current – Specified ripple current of 7.7 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 10.78 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support heavy AC ripple and switching environments.
• Loss Tangent – tan δ = 0.2 (DF) measured at 20 °C and 120 Hz, providing a defined dissipation characteristic for thermal and performance planning.
• Long Endurance – Rated for 5000 hours at 85 °C (endurance condition for 500 V/550 V parts), with specified limits on capacitance change, tan δ increase, and leakage current after the endurance test.
• Leakage Current – Specified leakage current of 3140 µA to help quantify standby losses and initial charge behavior.
• Robust Mechanical Package – Screw terminal, radial can construction (φ63.5 × 130 mm) for secure, low-resistance terminations and straightforward mounting.
• Operating Range & Compliance – Operates from −25 °C to +85 °C and is RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial power supplies – Used for bulk smoothing and energy buffering in inverter circuitry and other industrial supply stages where high voltage and ripple handling are required.
• Power conversion modules – Provides DC-link smoothing and ripple suppression in high-voltage converters and switching power equipment.
• General-purpose high-voltage systems – Suitable for designers needing a polarized, screw-terminal capacitor for reliable energy storage in high-voltage assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 500 V rating enables use in elevated-voltage circuits without series stacking.
• Demonstrated ripple performance: 7.7 A @120 Hz and 10.78 A @100 kHz ripple specifications allow designers to size components against measured ripple loads.
• Endurance at elevated temperature: 5000‑hour life at 85 °C for 500 V parts provides predictable aging characteristics under sustained thermal stress.
• Screw-terminal mounting: Robust termination for low-impedance, secure connections in heavy-current or field-serviceable installations.
• Quantified leakage and loss: Specified leakage current (3140 µA) and tan δ (0.2 at 20 °C/120 Hz) support thermal budgeting and efficiency calculations.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental directives for lead-free assembly requirements.
