LNY2G332MSEG

The LNY2G332MSEG is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal radial can designed for general-purpose applications that require high capacitance at elevated voltage. As part of Nichicon’s LNY series, it offers a 400 V rating and 3300 µF capacitance in a compact screw-terminal package suited for equipment downsizing.

This part is specified for operation from –40°C to +85°C with a rated load life of 2000 hours at 85°C under applied ripple current, making it appropriate for designs that demand sustained performance at elevated ambient temperature.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 3.3 mF (3300 µF) capacitance with a rated voltage of 400 V and tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C), providing substantial energy storage for high-voltage applications.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 13 A at 120 Hz and 18.2 A at 10 kHz to support designs with significant AC ripple burden.
• Temperature and Life — Operating temperature range from –40°C to +85°C and a specified load life of 2000 hours at 85°C with applied ripple current.
• Mounting and Package — Screw terminal radial can (can-type with screw terminals) for robust electrical and mechanical connections; packaged for straightforward mounting with separate bracket supply.
• Mechanical Size — Body dimensions L: 9.5 cm × D: 6.35 cm, offering a high-capacitance solution in a compact footprint for the series.
• Reliability and Safety Characteristics — Leakage current specified as not more than 3√CV (µA) or 5 mA (whichever is smaller) after 5 minutes at 20°C; insulation resistance >100 MΩ at DC 500 V between terminal and bracket.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), meeting current restricted-substances requirements.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose equipment — For circuits requiring a 400 V, 3300 µF screw-terminal electrolytic for energy storage and filtering in general-purpose designs.
• Equipment downsizing — High capacitance in a compact screw-terminal can to support reductions in overall equipment size where large capacitance is needed.
• High-ripple environments — Suitable for applications with significant ripple currents, leveraging rated ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage energy storage: 400 V rating combined with 3300 µF capacitance enables substantial DC link and smoothing capability within a single component.
• Designed for high ripple: Specified ripple currents (13 A at 120 Hz, 18.2 A at 10 kHz) reduce the need for parallel components when managing AC ripple loads.
• Compact, serviceable mounting: Screw-terminal radial can construction offers secure electrical connections and straightforward replacement or maintenance.
• Elevated-temperature endurance: 2000-hour load life at 85°C under applied ripple current provides predictable long-term performance in warm operating conditions.
• RoHS compliance: Meets current restricted-substances directives for environmentally conscious designs and supply chain compliance.
