Overview of LQS2G271MELC25 – 400 V, 270 µF Snap‑in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (105°C)
The LQS2G271MELC25 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap‑in terminal, radial can package optimized for high‑speed charge–discharge applications. It is rated 270 µF at 400 V with polarization and is designed for continuous operation up to 105°C.
Engineered for power‑electronics environments, this capacitor is suited for high‑frequency regenerative voltage handling in AC servomotors and general inverters, equipment operating in fluctuating voltage areas, and rectifier circuits such as voltage doublers. The part is RoHS‑compliant.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance at a 400 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C), providing bulk energy storage for power circuits.
- High‑Temperature Operation — Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C, supporting elevated ambient temperatures common in power conversion equipment.
- High‑speed Charge–Discharge Design — Specified as a 105°C high‑speed charge–discharge snap‑in type, suitable for repeated charge–discharge cycles in regenerative and inverter applications.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple currents of 1.22 A at 120 Hz and 1.745 A at 50 kHz, enabling effective handling of both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple in power supplies and inverters.
- Endurance & Reliability — Endurance specified as 3000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current; charge–discharge endurance verified for 50 million cycles under specified conditions.
- Mounting & Package — Snap‑in terminal, radial can construction for robust board mounting in power assemblies; compact footprint with dimensions L: 2.5 × D: 3.5 cm.
- Environmental Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- AC servomotor drives — Used in regenerative circuits to absorb and release energy during frequent braking and acceleration cycles.
- Inverter power stages — Bulk energy storage and ripple filtering in general inverter topologies for industrial drives and power conversion.
- Voltage‑doubler rectifiers — Suited for rectifier circuits where voltage fluctuation and high‑frequency components are present.
- Equipment in fluctuating‑voltage environments — Stabilizes DC links and mitigates transient events in systems subject to variable line conditions.
Unique Advantages
- Designed for frequent charge–discharge — Endurance testing for 50 million charge–discharge cycles (specified conditions) supports use in regenerative and high‑cycle applications.
- High‑temperature durability — 3000‑hour endurance at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable long‑term performance in hot operating environments.
- Wide ripple‑handling range — Specified ripple current performance at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz accommodates a broad set of power‑electronics switching frequencies.
- Robust snap‑in packaging — Radial, snap‑in can simplifies mechanical mounting and connection in power assemblies while maintaining a compact footprint.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS conformity supports deployment in designs targeting restricted‑substance compliance requirements.
