LNY2G153MSEJ

The LNY2G153MSEJ from Nichicon is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the LNY series, offering 15,000 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating. Designed for general-purpose high-capacitance, high-voltage applications, it delivers robust ripple-current handling and a long endurance profile for demanding power systems.

Its screw-terminal radial can package, RoHS compliance, and construction tailored for equipment downsizing make it suitable where bulk energy storage, smoothing, and high-voltage filtering are required in commercial and industrial equipment.

Key Features

• High capacitance & voltage: 15,000 µF nominal capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage supports substantial bulk energy storage and DC bus smoothing in high-voltage circuits.
• Robust ripple-current capability: Low-frequency ripple current of 28.3 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 39.62 A (10 kHz) enable reliable operation under continuous ripple loading.
• Endurance and temperature range: Rated for 2,000 hours at 85°C with an operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C to meet extended-life requirements in elevated-heat environments.
• Leakage and dissipation: Specified leakage current up to 5,000 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.25 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz provide predictable electrical characteristics for design validation.
• Screw terminal radial can package: Radial, can-style body with screw terminals enables secure, low-inductance connections and straightforward mechanical mounting.
• Dimensions & form factor: Size φ90 × 190 L (L: 19 × D: 9 cm) provides a compact footprint for a high-capacitance, high-voltage part—helpful when reducing equipment volume.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction to meet environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• High-voltage power supplies: Bulk energy storage and smoothing on DC bus lines where 400 V rating and large capacitance are required.
• Industrial power conversion: Filtering and ripple absorption in inverters, rectifiers, and large motor-drive power stages that demand sustained ripple-current endurance.
• Commercial energy systems: Bulk smoothing and energy buffering in UPS, power-conditioning, and other commercial high-voltage power modules.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial energy storage: 15,000 µF at 400 V provides high stored charge per component, reducing the need for parallel capacitors in bulk-capacitance applications.
• High ripple-current tolerance: Designed to handle 28.3 A (120 Hz) and 39.62 A (10 kHz), supporting continuous ripple-loading scenarios without premature degradation.
• Long rated life at elevated temperature: 2,000 hours at 85°C endurance gives designers a clear thermal life expectation for reliability planning.
• Screw-terminal connectivity: Provides secure electrical and mechanical connections for heavy-current applications and simplifies installation and maintenance.
• Compact high-voltage form factor: φ90 × 190 L body supports equipment downsizing goals while preserving high-capacitance performance.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ and leakage current values allow accurate modeling of losses and standby behavior in system-level designs.
