Applications
The UPW2V101MRD is suited for bulk energy storage and filtering in industrial power supplies, AC-DC converters, and motor drives where 100 µF at high voltage is required in a through-hole radial package. Its aluminum wet electrolytic construction makes it ideal for applications demanding high capacitance density and low equivalent series resistance for ripple current absorption. It is also used in UPS systems, variable frequency drives, and heavy-duty relay driver circuits where a 20 mm diameter radial component fits the PCB layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the capacitance and voltage rating of the UPW2V101MRD, and what circuit types does that suit?
The UPW2V101MRD is rated at 100 µF capacitance with a high-voltage aluminum wet electrolytic construction, housed in a 20 mm diameter radial leaded package. This combination of 100 µF bulk capacitance and radial leaded form factor makes it suitable for bulk filtering in AC-DC power supplies, motor drive input stages, and industrial UPS systems where large capacitance must absorb significant ripple current.
What is the leakage current of the UPW2V101MRD, and why does it matter for power efficiency?
The UPW2V101MRD has a specified leakage current of 1.5 mA, which represents the DC current flowing through the dielectric under rated voltage. In high-voltage industrial power supplies operating continuously, keeping leakage below 2 mA minimizes quiescent power dissipation and thermal rise across the capacitor bank, extending component lifetime and improving overall power conversion efficiency in 24/7 operational environments.
Is the UPW2V101MRD RoHS compliant, and what are its environmental compliance ratings?
The UPW2V101MRD carries a Pb-free (lead-free) code of Yes, confirming it is manufactured without lead solder in the terminal finish, which satisfies RoHS Directive requirements for most markets. However, its REACH compliance code is listed as Not Compliant, which designers should verify against their regional regulatory requirements before specifying this 100 µF aluminum electrolytic capacitor in products sold in REACH-regulated markets.
What dielectric material does the UPW2V101MRD use, and how does that affect its application suitability?
The UPW2V101MRD uses an aluminum wet electrolytic dielectric, which provides the highest volumetric capacitance efficiency among passive components, delivering 100 µF in a 20 mm radial body. Wet aluminum electrolytic capacitors support higher ripple current ratings and wider temperature performance compared to dry or solid electrolytic alternatives, making them preferred for industrial filtering and energy storage in harsh-environment motor drives and power converters.
Can the UPW2V101MRD be used in automated PCB assembly, and what packaging considerations apply?
The UPW2V101MRD is a radial leaded component with a 20 mm diameter body, designed for through-hole PCB insertion rather than SMT reflow. It is compatible with automated radial insertion equipment commonly found in industrial PCB manufacturing lines, but requires wave soldering rather than reflow. Its non solvent-proof designation means designers should avoid exposing this 100 µF capacitor to board cleaning solvents after assembly, which is a standard constraint for wet aluminum electrolytic components.
