LNX2L122MSEGBB

The LNX2L122MSEGBB from Nichicon is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LNX series, offering 1.2 mF capacitance at a 550 V rating. Engineered for industrial power systems, this radial can with screw terminals is intended for applications that require extra-high voltage capability and elevated ripple handling.

Key value comes from its combination of high voltage (550 V), significant capacitance (1,200 µF), and rated ripple current performance, alongside a 5,000-hour endurance at +85°C for parts rated 500 V and 550 V. It is RoHS compliant and in mass production.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1.2 mF (1,200 µF) nominal capacitance with a 550 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Screw Terminal Package: Radial can with screw terminals (M5 nominal bolt for φ63.5 diameter) for secure, low-resistance electrical and mechanical connections.
• High Ripple Current: Rated for 5.0 A low-frequency ripple at 120 Hz and 7.0 A high-frequency ripple at 100 kHz, supporting demanding power-conversion loads.
• Endurance & Temperature Range: Designed for 5,000 hours life at +85°C for 500 V and 550 V parts; operating temperature range from −25°C to +85°C.
• Leakage & Loss Characteristics: Specified leakage current of 2,430 µA and a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• Form Factor: Size φ63.5 × 110 mm (L: 11 × D: 6.35 cm), can-style radial package for panel or chassis mounting with available bracket dimensions in the LNX series.
• Compliance & Availability: RoHS compliant and currently in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies: Energy storage and smoothing in industrial AC–DC and DC–DC power supplies where high-voltage filtering and ripple handling are required.
• Inverter Circuitry: DC-link and filter capacitor use in inverter systems, leveraging the part’s high voltage rating and high ripple current capability.
• High-Voltage Power Conversion: Applications that require extra-high voltage capacitance and robust terminal connections for reliable power-electronic operation.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering: Bulk filtering and decoupling in equipment that benefits from a large capacitance and screw-terminal mounting.

Unique Advantages

• Extra-high Voltage Capability: 550 V rating supports high-voltage designs without the need for series stacking of lower-voltage capacitors.
• High Ripple Endurance: Rated ripple currents of 5 A (120 Hz) and 7 A (100 kHz) reduce thermal stress in demanding power-conversion environments.
• Secure Screw-Terminal Connection: Screw terminals provide robust electrical contact and mechanical reliability for heavy-current and vibration-prone installations.
• Proven Endurance for 550 V Parts: Specified 5,000-hour life at +85°C for 500 V and 550 V ratings, enabling predictable long-term performance in suitable operating conditions.
• Series Scalability and Options: LNX series covers rated voltages from 350 to 550 V and capacitances from 1,000 to 27,000 µF, allowing design scaling without changing family architecture.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready: Environmentally compliant and available in mass production for volume deployments.
