KEMET products are particularly stable and allow a shelf life in excess of three years at 40°C. See sectional specification under each product series for specific data. ## **Re-age (Reforming) Procedure** Apply the rated voltage to the capacitor at room temperature for a period of one hour or until the leakage current has fallen to a steady value below the specified limit. During re-aging, a maximum charging current of twice the specified leakage current or 5 mA (whichever is greater) is suggested. ## **Reliability** The reliability of a component can be defined as the probability that it will perform satisfactorily under a given set of conditions for a given length of time. In practice, it is impossible to predict with absolute certainty how any individual component will perform. Therefore, we must utilize probability theory. It is also necessary to clearly define the level of stress involved (e.g., operating voltage, ripple current, temperature, and time.) Finally, the meaning of satisfactory performance must be defined by specifying a set of conditions, which determine the end of life of the component. KEMET provides an online life calculator that can be used to predict hours of life for a given part number in specific application conditions.

As an environmentally conscious company, KEMET is working continuously with improvements concerning the environmental effects of both our capacitors and their production. In Europe (RoHS Directive) and in some other geographical areas such as China, legislation has been put in place to prevent the use of some hazardous materials, such as lead (Pb), in electronic equipment. All products in this catalog are produced to help our customers' obligations to guarantee their products and fulfill these legislative requirements. The only material of concern in our products has been lead (Pb), which has been removed from all designs to fulfill the requirement of containing less than 0.1% of lead in any homogeneous material. KEMET will closely follow any changes in legislation worldwide and make any necessary changes in its products, whenever needed. Some customer segments such as medical, military and automotive electronics may still require the use of lead in electrode coatings. To clarify the situation and distinguish products from each other, a special symbol is used on the packaging labels for RoHS compatible capacitors. Due to customer requirements, there may appear additional markings such as lead-free (LF), or lead-free wires (LFW) on the label. © KEMET Electronics Corporation • One East Broward Boulevard Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA • 954-766-2800 • www.kemet.com A4079_ALA7D • 3/19/2025 7 Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors – ALA7D, +85°C ## **Table 1 – Ratings & Part Number Reference** **==> picture [542 x 523] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Rated Case ESR Impedance<br>Size Ripple Current<br>VDC Capacitance Size Maximum Maximum Part Number SPQ<br>100 Hz Code 100 Hz 10 kHz 100 Hz 10 kHz<br>20°C (µF) D x L (mm) 85°C (A) 85°C (A) 20°C (mΩ) 20°C (mΩ)<br>400 360 CC 30 x 35 1.8 3.9 488 299 ALA7D(1)361CC400 160<br>400 430 CD 30 x 40 2.0 4.4 409 250 ALA7D(1)431CD400 160<br>400 470 DC 35 x 35 2.2 4.6 380 235 ALA7D(1)471DC400 100<br>400 510 CE 30 x 45 2.2 4.8 345 212 ALA7D(1)511CE400 160<br>400 560 DD 35 x 40 2.5 5.2 319 197 ALA7D(1)561DD400 100<br>400 620 CF 30 x 50 2.6 5.5 285 175 ALA7D(1)621CF400 160<br>400 680 DE 35 x 45 2.8 5.8 263 1628 ALA7D(1)681DE400 100<br>400 820 DF 35 x 50 3.2 6.5 220 136 ALA7D(1)821DF400 100<br>400 820 EE 40 x 45 3.3 6.2 246 161 ALA7D(1)821EE400 72<br>400 1000 EF 40 x 50 3.7 6.8 203 133 ALA7D(1)102EF400 36<br>450 300 CC 30 x 35 1.7 4.0 504 296 ALA7D(1)301CC450 160<br>450 360 CD 30 x 40 2.0 4.5 420 247 ALA7D(1)361CD450 160<br>450 390 DC 35 x 35 2.1 4.6 394 233 ALA7D(1)391DC450 100<br>450 430 CE 30 x 45 2.2 5.0 353 207 ALA7D(1)431CE450 160<br>450 470 CF 30 x 50 2.3 5.2 322 189 ALA7D(1)471CF450 160<br>450 470 DD 35 x 40 2.4 5.2 327 194 ALA7D(1)471DD450 100<br>450 560 DE 35 x 45 2.7 5.8 275 163 ALA7D(1)561DE450 100<br>450 680 DF 35 x 50 3.1 6.5 228 135 ALA7D(1)681DF450 100<br>450 680 EE 40 x 45 3.1 6.1 259 164 ALA7D(1)681EE450 72<br>450 820 EF 40 x 50 3.5 6.8 216 137 ALA7D(1)821EF450 36<br>500 240 CC 30 x 35 1.5 3.0 1032 780 ALA7D(1)241CC500 160<br>500 270 CD 30 x 40 1.7 2.9 916 693 ALA7D(1)271CD500 160<br>500 330 CE 30 x 45 1.9 3.7 751 568 ALA7D(1)331CE500 160<br>500 330 DC 35 x 35 1.9 3.7 757 574 ALA7D(1)331DC500 100<br>500 390 CF 30 x 50 2.1 4.1 636 481 ALA7D(1)391CF500 160<br>500 390 DD 35 x 40 2.1 4.0 640 485 ALA7D(1)391DD500 100<br>500 470 DE 35 x 45 2.5 4.6 532 403 ALA7D(1)471DE500 100<br>500 510 DF 35 x 50 2.6 4.8 490 371 ALA7D(1)511DF500 100<br>500 560 EE 40 x 45 2.9 5.4 428 320 ALA7D(1)561EE500 72<br>500 680 EF 40 x 50 3.3 6.0 354 265 ALA7D(1)681EF500 36<br>550 180 CC 30 x 35 1.4 3.0 943 651 ALA7D(1)181CC550 160<br>550 220 CD 30 x 40 1.6 3.5 772 533 ALA7D(1)221CD550 160<br>550 240 DC 35 x 35 1.8 3.7 713 494 ALA7D(1)241DC550 100<br>550 270 CE 30 x 45 1.9 3.9 630 435 ALA7D(1)271CE550 160<br>550 300 CF 30 x 50 2.0 4.3 567 392 ALA7D(1)301CF550 160<br>550 300 DD 35 x 40 2.1 4.2 572 396 ALA7D(1)301DD550 100<br>550 360 DE 35 x 45 2.3 4.8 477 331 ALA7D(1)361DE550 100<br>550 390 DF 35 x 50 2.5 5.1 440 305 ALA7D(1)391DF550 100<br>550 470 EE 40 x 45 2.8 5.5 375 261 ALA7D(1)471EE550 72<br>550 560 EF 40 x 50 3.2 6.1 315 220 ALA7D(1)561EF550 36<br>600 130 CC 30 x 35 1.4 3.0 980 676 ALA7D(1)131CC600 160<br>600 160 CD 30 x 40 1.6 3.5 797 550 ALA7D(1)161CD600 160<br>600 180 CE 30 x 45 1.7 3.8 708 488 ALA7D(1)181CE600 160<br>600 180 DC 35 x 35 1.8 3.7 714 494 ALA7D(1)181DC600 100<br>600 220 CF 30 x 50 2.0 4.3 580 400 ALA7D(1)221CF600 160<br>600 220 DD 35 x 40 2.0 4.2 585 405 ALA7D(1)221DD600 100<br>600 240 DE 35 x 45 2.2 4.6 535 370 ALA7D(1)241DE600 100<br>600 300 DF 35 x 50 2.5 5.2 430 297 ALA7D(1)301DF600 100<br>600 330 EE 40 x 45 2.7 5.4 399 277 ALA7D(1)331EE600 36<br>600 390 EF 40 x 50 3.0 6.0 339 235 ALA7D(1)391EF600 36<br>VDC Rated Capacitance Size Code Case Size Ripple Current ESR Impedance Part Number SPQ<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> _(1) Termination code: See Termination Tables for available options._ © KEMET Electronics Corporation • One East Broward Boulevard Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA • 954-766-2800 • www.kemet.com A4079_ALA7D • 3/19/2025 8 Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors – ALA7D, +85°C ## **Mechanical Data** ## **Polarity & Reversed Voltage** Aluminium electrolytic capacitors manufactured for use in DC applications contain an anode foil and a cathode foil. As such, they are polarized devices and must be connected with the +ve to the anode foil and the -ve to the cathode foil. If this were to be reversed, then the electrolytic process that took place in forming the oxide layer on the anode would be recreated in trying to form an oxide layer on the cathode. In forming the cathode foil in this way, heat would be generated and gas given off within the capacitor, usually leading to catastrophic failure. The cathode foil already possesses a thin stabilized oxide layer. This thin oxide layer is equivalent to a forming voltage of approximately 2 V. As a result, the capacitor can withstand a voltage reversal of up to 2 V for short periods. Above this voltage, the formation process will commence. Aluminium electrolytic capacitors can also be manufactured for the use in intermittent AC applications by using two anode foils in place of one anode and one cathode. ## **Mounting Position** The capacitor can be mounted upright or inclined to a horizontal position. Special attention for the safety vent coverage, which this ensures that internal gas generated can escape when the pressure reaches a certain value due to overstress or catastrophic failure. All mounting positions must allow the safety vent to work properly. ## **Insulating Resistance** ≥ 100 MΩ at 100 VDC across insulating sleeve ## **Voltage Proof** > = 3,500 VDC across insulating sleeve > = 2,500 VAC across insulating sleeve ## **Safety Vent** A safety vent for overpressure is featured on the base (opposing end to the terminals). This is a weakened area in the bottom of the can that is designed to relieve build-up of internal pressure due to overstress or catastrophic failure. © KEMET Electronics Corporation • One East Broward Boulevard Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA • 954-766-2800 • www.kemet.com A4079_ALA7D • 3/19/2025 9 Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors – ALA7D, +85°C ## **Marking** **==> picture [295 x 124] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> KEMET Logo<br>Polarity Stripe (−)<br>Rated Capacitance, 470uF -20+20% fam<br>Capacitance Tolerance<br>500 vpbc = Rated Voltage (VDC)<br>Series, Capacitance<br>ALA7DA 471 DE cull<br>Code, Voltage Code<br>40/085/56 f= Climatic Category<br>Date of Manufacture,<br>Batch Number 1811 18082045<br>Made in the<br>European Union<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> _*Image for reference only.

Both the anode and cathode foils are then interleaved with absorbent paper and wound into a cylinder. During the winding process, aluminum tabs are attached to each foil to provide the electrical contact. The deck, complete with terminals, is attached to the tabs and then folded down to rest on top of the winding. The complete winding is impregnated with electrolyte before being housed in a suitable container, usually an aluminum can, and sealed. Throughout the process, all materials inside the housing must be maintained at the highest purity and be compatible with the electrolyte. Each capacitor is aged and tested before being sleeved and packed. The purpose of aging is to repair any damage in the oxide layer and thus reduce the leakage current to a very low level. Aging is normally carried out at the rated temperature of the capacitor and is accomplished by applying voltage to the device while carefully controlling the supply current. The process may take several hours to complete. Damage to the oxide layer can occur due to variety of reasons: - Slitting of the anode foil after forming - Attaching the tabs to the anode foil - Minor mechanical damage caused during winding A sample from each batch is taken by the quality department after completion of the production process. This sample size is controlled by the use of recognized sampling tables defi ned in BS 6001. The following tests are applied and may be varied at the request of the customer. In this case the batch, or special procedure, will determine the course of action. ## Electrical: Mechanical/Visual: - Leakage current - Overall dimensions - Torque test of mounting stud - Capacitance - Print detail - ESR - Impedance - Box labels - Tan Delta - Packaging, including packed quantity **==> picture [253 x 179] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Extended cathode<br>Anode foil<br>Foil tabs<br>Tissues<br>Cathode foil<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [204 x 374] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Etching<br>Forming<br>Winding<br>Decking<br>Impregnation<br>Assembly<br>Aging<br>Testing<br>Sleeving<br>Packing<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> © KEMET Electronics Corporation • One East Broward Boulevard Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA • 954-766-2800 • www.kemet.com A4079_ALA7D • 3/19/2025 11 Snap-In Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors – ALA7D, +85°C ## ## **Disclaimer** All product specifi cations, statements, information and data (collectively, the “Information”) in this datasheet are subject to change.

Accordingly, customer applications which require a high degree of reliability or safety should employ suitable designs or other safeguards (such as installation of protective circuitry or redundancies) in order to ensure that the failure of an electrical component does not result in a risk of personal injury or property damage. Although all product–related warnings, cautions and notes must be observed, the customer should not assume that all safety measures are indicated or that other measures may not be required. KEMET requires its products to be packaged and shipped on pallets. This is because KEMET’s products are specifi cally designed to be packed onto pallets during shipment. If for any reason, the products are removed from pallets by the shipping party and shipped to the end customer, then additional external protection is required. In this instance, an external box with two carton layers and an upwards orientation sticker must be used by the shipping party, with the empty space fi lled with fi lling material, and afterwards sealing the box. If this packing and packaging guideline is not followed by the shipping party, the shipping party, and not KEMET, will be held responsible for any packaging, packing and/or product damages upon delivery of the products to the end customer. KEMET hereby disclaims any liability for damages to the products or otherwise that have been, or threaten to be, infl icted, result from or are in any way related to the packaging, packing or damage by the shipping party in contravention of the packing and packaging guidelines herein. _KEMET is a registered trademark of KEMET Electronics Corporation._ © KEMET Electronics Corporation • One East Broward Boulevard Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA • 954-766-2800 • www.kemet.com A4079_ALA7D • 3/19/2025 12
