Overview of LQSW6271MELC25 – 420 V, 270 µF Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The LQSW6271MELC25 is a Nichicon LQS series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a snap-in terminal can, rated 270 µF at 420 V. It is engineered for high-speed charge–discharge environments and continuous operation up to 105°C.

Intended for industrial power electronics, the part is well suited to high-frequency regenerative circuits for AC servomotors and general inverters, equipment operating in voltage‑fluctuating areas, and rectifier circuits such as voltage doublers. It combines high-voltage energy buffering with elevated temperature and ripple-handling capability.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage: 270 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 420 V, with tolerance ±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C.
  • Snap‑in Terminal Package: Radial, can-type snap-in mounting for secure board installation and reliable mechanical retention.
  • High‑Temperature Operation: Rated for operation from −25°C to +105°C to support demanding thermal environments.
  • High‑speed Charge–Discharge Design: Part of the LQS series specified for high-speed charge–discharge performance, suited to regenerative and switching applications.
  • Endurance at Elevated Temperature: Specified lifetime of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions.
  • Ripple Current Capability: Rated ripple currents of 1.25 A at 120 Hz and 1.788 A at 50 kHz for both low‑ and high‑frequency filtering and buffering.
  • Polarized Electrolytic: Polarized construction appropriate for DC link, rectifier and energy‑storage roles in power circuits.
  • RoHS Compliant: Conforms to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
  • Compact Footprint: Package size approximately L: 2.5 × D: 3.5 cm for power-dense board layouts.

Typical Applications

  • AC Servomotor Drives: Energy buffering and regenerative voltage handling in servo inverter DC links and braking circuits.
  • General Inverters: DC link and smoothing capacitor for industrial inverters where high ripple and charge–discharge robustness are required.
  • Voltage‑Doubler Rectifiers: Use in rectifier circuits that require high‑voltage DC storage and repeated charge–discharge cycles.
  • Industrial Equipment in Fluctuating Voltage Environments: Stabilizing and energy‑absorbing capacitor for systems exposed to large or rapid voltage swings.

Unique Advantages

  • High‑voltage energy storage: 420 V rating provides margin for 400 V‑class power systems and DC link applications.
  • Designed for repeated charge–discharge: LQS series specification targets high‑speed charge–discharge behavior suitable for regenerative circuits.
  • Thermal durability: Rated to 105°C with a 3000‑hour endurance specification, supporting continuous operation in hot industrial environments.
  • Broad ripple performance: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 50 kHz enables effective filtering across low and high switching frequencies.
  • Secure snap‑in mounting: Radial snap‑in can simplifies assembly and provides a mechanically robust connection for power boards.
  • Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity for use in designs that require restricted‑substance compliance.
