Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 225MABA02KHS is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Equivalence Criteria:

• Capacitance value: 2.2 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 600V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP) metallized (required for application compatibility)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole Radial (required for PCB compatibility)
• Lead Spacing: 1.083" (27.50mm) (required for footprint compatibility)
• Termination: PC Pins (required for soldering compatibility)

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 100°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)
• RoHS3 Compliance: Required for regulatory compliance
• Physical dimensions: Acceptable within reasonable tolerance for board layout

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: parametric equivalents (matching all primary criteria) and functional substitutes (meeting voltage and capacitance requirements with acceptable dimensional variations).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MABA024220KHL (Nichicon) - Parametric Equivalent:

The MABA024220KHL represents a direct parametric equivalent to the 225MABA02KHS. This component matches all primary electrical specifications: 2.2 µF capacitance, ±10% tolerance, 600V DC rating, and polypropylene metallized dielectric. Physical dimensions, lead spacing, and termination are identical. Operating temperature range is equivalent at -40°C ~ 100°C. The part is ROHS3 compliant and currently in active production status with 918 units in stock. This substitute is suitable for direct replacement in motor run applications without circuit modification.

B32924B4225K000 (EPCOS - TDK) - Functional Substitute:

The B32924B4225K000 functions as a substitute with enhanced electrical ratings. It provides 2.2 µF capacitance with ±10% tolerance, but offers higher voltage ratings (650V DC, 350V AC) compared to the original specification (600V DC, 320V AC). The dielectric material is polypropylene without specified metallization. Lead spacing and termination are compatible. Operating temperature range extends to 110°C. This part is rated for EMI/RFI suppression applications with X2 classification and is currently in active production with 1667 units in stock. The higher voltage rating provides design margin but may not be necessary for applications designed for 600V operation. Physical dimensions show minor variation (width 0.827" vs. 0.551"), requiring verification of board layout compatibility.

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are available from active production sources, addressing the obsolescence of the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MABA024220KHL directly replace the 225MABA02KHS without any circuit modifications?

A: Yes. The MABA024220KHL is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical ratings (2.2 µF, ±10%, 600V DC), dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 100°C), and physical dimensions. Lead spacing and termination are identical. Direct substitution is supported without circuit changes.

Q: What is the difference between the B32924B4225K000 and the original 225MABA02KHS?

A: The B32924B4225K000 provides higher voltage ratings (650V DC vs. 600V DC; 350V AC vs. 320V AC) and extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C vs. -40°C ~ 100°C). The dielectric material is polypropylene without specified metallization. Physical width is larger (0.827" vs. 0.551"), requiring board layout verification. Capacitance, tolerance, lead spacing, and termination are identical.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The 225MABA02KHS, B32924B4225K000, and MABA024220KHL are all ROHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for motor run applications?

A: The MABA024220KHL is the recommended selection for motor run applications, as it is a parametric equivalent with matching electrical specifications and application classification. The B32924B4225K000 is classified for EMI/RFI suppression applications and may not be optimized for motor run duty.

Q: Does the higher voltage rating of the B32924B4225K000 affect circuit performance?

A: Higher voltage ratings do not negatively affect circuit performance in applications designed for lower voltages. The B32924B4225K000 will function correctly in circuits rated for 600V DC operation. However, the physical dimension difference (width 0.827" vs. 0.551") must be verified against PCB layout constraints before selection.

Q: What is the lead spacing requirement for these capacitors?

A: All three parts feature identical lead spacing of 1.083" (27.50mm), ensuring compatibility with existing PCB footprints designed for the 225MABA02KHS.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for these substitutes?

A: The MABA024220KHL has 918 units in stock, and the B32924B4225K000 has 1667 units in stock. Both are currently available from active production sources, addressing the obsolescence of the original 225MABA02KHS (989 units remaining in stock).
