What is LLS2G221MELA used for?
The LLS2G221MELA is used as a bulk energy storage and filtering capacitor in industrial power supplies, motor drives, and UPS systems operating from 400 V DC bus rails where 220 µF of capacitance is needed for ripple suppression. Its 25 mm radial through-hole package is well suited for chassis-mounted power conversion stages and inverter output filter banks. The Nichicon LS series aluminum wet electrolytic construction provides long service life in high-voltage rectifier circuits and DC link applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What voltage and capacitance ratings make the LLS2G221MELA suitable for a 400 V DC bus power supply?
The LLS2G221MELA is rated at 400 V DC working voltage with 220 µF capacitance, making it directly applicable to 400 V DC link capacitor banks in industrial variable-speed drives, three-phase rectifiers, and switching power supplies. The 220 µF value provides sufficient bulk storage to hold the DC bus voltage ripple within acceptable limits at typical 50 Hz or 60 Hz rectification frequencies, and the 0.88 mA maximum leakage current keeps standby losses low at full rated voltage.
How does the 25 mm diameter through-hole radial package of the LLS2G221MELA affect PCB layout in a motor drive design?
The 25 mm body diameter of the LLS2G221MELA requires a PCB pad footprint with 10 mm lead spacing and a clearance area of at least 26 mm to allow insertion and soldering without interference. In motor drive designs, engineers typically cluster these radial capacitors near the DC bus rectifier output, standing them upright to minimize PCB area consumption and allowing natural convection cooling around the 25 mm cylindrical body. The through-hole lead structure provides excellent mechanical retention against the vibration levels common in motor-drive enclosures.
Which compliance certifications does the LLS2G221MELA carry and why do they matter for European equipment procurement?
The LLS2G221MELA carries RoHS compliance (Pb-free code: Yes, JESD-609 code: e3) and REACH compliance, which are mandatory for equipment sold in the European Union and increasingly required by major OEM procurement specifications. The e3 JESD-609 designation confirms the component is manufactured with lead-free solder-compatible terminations, allowing it to pass through SAC305 or similar lead-free reflow and wave soldering processes without risk of non-compliance during final product CE marking audits.
