Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 2-1609991-3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Capacitance value of 1 µF
• Axial-threaded terminal package configuration
• M8 thread size for mechanical mounting
• Current rating of 100 A minimum
• DC resistance (DCR) of 2mOhm maximum

Voltage Consideration: The original part is rated for 130V. Substitute parts with higher voltage ratings (such as 600V) are electrically compatible and provide enhanced safety margin in applications operating at or below 130V.

Temperature Range: The original part operates from -40°C to 60°C. Substitute parts with extended temperature ranges remain compatible for applications within the original temperature specification.

The EPCOS - TDK Electronics B85321A2205A101 meets all mandatory compatibility parameters while offering enhanced electrical performance and active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EPCOS - TDK Electronics B85321A2205A101 is the identified equivalent substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 2-1609991-3. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The substitute part maintains active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete original part.

Electrical Compatibility: The substitute maintains identical capacitance (1 µF) and current rating (100 A). The elevated voltage rating (600V versus 130V) provides operational margin for applications within the original 130V specification.

Compliance: The substitute part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement in regulated markets.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts feature identical axial-threaded terminal packaging, enabling direct mechanical integration into existing mounting configurations.

Temperature Performance: The substitute part extends the operating temperature range to -40°C to 85°C, providing enhanced thermal performance beyond the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EPCOS B85321A2205A101 directly replace the TE Connectivity 2-1609991-3 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (1 µF), current rating (100 A), and axial-threaded terminal package configuration with M8 thread size. The substitute part is electrically and mechanically compatible for applications operating at or below 130V.

Q: What is the significance of the higher voltage rating on the substitute part?

A: The EPCOS substitute is rated for 600V compared to the original 130V rating. This higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin and does not affect compatibility in applications operating at the original 130V specification.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The substitute part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, whereas the original part is REACH unaffected. Organizations subject to ROHS3 and REACH regulations should verify that the substitute part meets their specific compliance requirements.

Q: Does the extended temperature range of the substitute part affect its use in the original application?

A: No. The substitute part operates across -40°C to 85°C, which encompasses the original part's -40°C to 60°C range. Applications operating within the original temperature specification remain fully compatible.

Q: What is the availability status of each part?

A: The original TE Connectivity part is classified as obsolete. The EPCOS substitute maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability for new procurement and system support.
