• Leakage and Loss — Leakage current specified at 6500 µA, enabling designers to budget standby and leakage power for high-voltage circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.35 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 1.5525 A at 10 kHz, providing defined performance across common ripple regimes.
• Reliability and Endurance — Endurance rated for 2000 hours at 105°C; operational temperature range of −40°C to +105°C for extended high-temperature stability.
• Radial-Lead Package — Can-type radial package, physical size φ25 × 50 mm with lead spacing of 12.5 mm (±0.5 mm), suitable for through-hole mounting and robust mechanical retention.
• Packaging and Compliance — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power systems — For circuits that require a 1000 µF, 160 V aluminum electrolytic in a radial-lead through-hole form factor.
• High-voltage smoothing and energy storage — Suitable where bulk capacitance and defined ripple handling are required at elevated voltages.
• Industrial and instrumentation assemblies — Through-hole mounting and wide operating temperature range support integration into robust, serviceable designs.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage bulk capacitance: 1000 µF at 160 V provides substantial energy storage in a single component, reducing the need for multiple parallel capacitors.
• Defined ripple handling across frequencies: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz let engineers size thermal management and predict performance under real-world ripple conditions.
• Wide operating temperature: Rated from −40°C to +105°C with 2000-hour endurance at 105°C, enabling deployment in applications with elevated ambient temperatures.
• Through-hole robustness: Radial lead and can package with 12.5 mm lead spacing provides mechanical strength for connectors, boards, and serviceable assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance and packaging flexibility: RoHS compliance and choice of bulk or bag packing simplify procurement and assembly needs.
• Compact form factor within series: Part of the UVY series, designed to provide high-capacitance solutions in compact radial cases for space-conscious designs.
