LNY2G102MSEF

The LNY2G102MSEF is a screw-terminal, aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 1000 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a robust radial can with screw terminals, making it suitable for equipment that requires high-voltage bulk capacitance in a compact package.

With a rated temperature range of −40°C to 85°C and a specified load life of 2000 hours at 85°C under rated ripple conditions, this part targets designs where reliable high-voltage energy storage and ripple handling are required while supporting equipment downsizing objectives.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1000 µF nominal capacitance at a 400 V rating for high-voltage bulk energy storage.
• Screw-Terminal Mounting: Radial can package with screw terminals and M5 nominal bolt threading for secure, high-current connections.
• Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 6.4 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 8.96 A (10 kHz), supporting applications with significant ripple demands.
• Endurance: Rated for 2000 hours of operation at 85°C with applied rated ripple current, providing defined life performance for thermal/ripple stress conditions.
• Operational Temperature Range: −40°C to +85°C specified for use across a wide ambient range.
• Electrical Loss and Leakage: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.25 and leakage current 1890 µA, enabling assessment of dissipation and off-state current.
• Form Factor: Compact footprint with dimensions φ51 × 60 mm (diameter × length) for space-conscious equipment layouts.
• Compliance: RoHS compliant for regulatory alignment in applicable markets.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power equipment: Provides bulk capacitance and energy buffering in power conversion and distribution assemblies requiring 400 V rated capacitors.
• Equipment downsizing: Higher capacitance in a compact screw-terminal can supports reduced system size where board space and enclosure volume are constrained.
• High-ripple environments: Suited to circuits that experience sustained ripple currents, leveraging the specified low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 1000 µF at 400 V supplies substantial stored energy for power smoothing and hold-up functions without increasing package count.
• Secure screw-terminal connections: M5-compatible screw terminals ensure reliable mechanical and electrical connections for high-current paths.
• Defined ripple endurance: Explicit low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings combined with a 2000-hour life at 85°C simplify thermal and reliability planning.
• Wide operating temperature: −40°C to +85°C rating supports use in varied ambient conditions while maintaining performance metrics.
• Measured loss and leakage specs: Specified tan δ (0.25) and leakage current (1890 µA) allow predictable dissipation and standby current budgeting.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance aids integration into products targeting restricted-substance requirements.
