Nippon LR capacitor

pdul · 6th April 2012, 07:15 PM

I am in the process of replacing all the electrolytics in a Denon PMA-737, from 1984, and in the phonestage is a orange polarized cap with the text 10uf 50v LR. It is 15*6 mm and closed with epoxy instead of the usual rubber.
Brand Nippon Chemicon.
Do any of you guys know what is special about it? And what the LR means?

It is about the double size of what you would expect for a 10uf/50v.
Sorry I can`t post a picture, I am still in the process of getting to know my camera too

Nippon Chemi-Con Corporation / Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
all they say is that it is a "LOW LEAKAGE CURRENT."
replacement cap is LLA type.

I have used Nichicon FG 10uf/100v which have the same leakage as the suggested replacement, and available in my stash
