LNY2V153MSEH

The LNY2V153MSEH is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a screw-terminal radial-can package delivering 15,000 µF at 350 V. It is part of Nichicon's LNY series designed for higher capacitance in a screw-terminal format and is intended for general-purpose applications.

Key engineering attributes include a rated temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, a specified load life of 2000 hours at 85 °C under rated ripple current, and RoHS compliance—features that address high-capacitance, high-voltage needs where secure screw-terminal connections are required.

Key Features

• High Capacitance: 15,000 µF rated capacitance provides substantial bulk energy storage for high-voltage systems.
• 350 V Rated Voltage: Designed and specified for 350 V operation to support higher-voltage power applications.
• Screw-Terminal Mounting: Radial can with screw terminals offers robust, secure connections suitable for high-current and serviceable assemblies.
• Operating Temperature Range: Specified for −40 °C to +85 °C for broad environmental tolerance.
• Load Life Performance: Endurance defined as 2000 hours at 85 °C with DC bias plus rated ripple current applied; parameters (capacitance, tan δ, leakage) are specified after endurance test.
• Ripple Current Ratings: 28 A at 120 Hz and 39.2 A at 10 kHz, supporting significant ripple handling in high-current applications.
• Capacitance Tolerance: ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C) for predictable design margins.
• Leakage Current Specification: After 5 minutes at rated voltage, leakage is not more than 3√(C·V) µA or 5 mA, whichever is smaller (at 20 °C).
• Insulation and Voltage Proof: Insulation resistance >100 MΩ at DC 500 V (terminal to bracket) and no abnormality under AC 2500 V for 1 minute (terminal to bracket).
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements (2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Equipment: Provides bulk capacitance and energy storage where a high-voltage, high-capacitance screw-terminal capacitor is required.
• Equipment Downsizing: The LNY series is suited for equipment downsizing by offering higher capacitance in the screw-terminal form factor.
• High-Ripple Power Modules: With rated ripple current at 120 Hz and 10 kHz, it supports designs requiring significant ripple handling in high-voltage circuits.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Bulk Storage: 15,000 µF at 350 V supplies large capacitance in a single component, reducing the number of parts required for bulk energy needs.
• Secure, Serviceable Connections: Screw-terminal mounting enables reliable mechanical and electrical connections that are readily serviceable in the field.
• Defined Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 2000-hour load life at 85 °C provides a measurable reliability metric for thermal and ripple-stressed designs.
• High Ripple Capability: Ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies help maintain performance in power conversion and filtering applications.
• Clear Electrical Limits: Leakage, insulation resistance, and voltage-proof specifications are provided for predictable validation and safety margin planning.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports designs targeting restricted-substance requirements.
