24FB4460 Film Capacitor 60µF 440VAC Radial

Part Overview

The Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) 24FB4460 is a 60 µF polypropylene film capacitor rated for 440V AC operation with radial, can-style construction. This part is obsolete and no longer in active production. Locating alternative components with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications is necessary to maintain system functionality in applications requiring motor run and power factor correction circuits.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Equivalent substitutes for the 24FB4460 are identified based on strict alignment across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 60 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 440V AC (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Dielectric type: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)
• Package style: Radial, Can construction (exact match required)
• Mounting configuration: Chassis Mount with holder/bracket requirement (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 70°C (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.813" (20.64mm) maximum deviation of ±0.003" (0.076mm) acceptable for mechanical interchange

The 24FB4460 is listed in the MPF series. Direct manufacturer equivalents maintain the same electrical performance specifications while offering improved product availability through active production status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

24FB4460A-F (Parametric Equivalent)

The 24FB4460A-F maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the original 24FB4460, including the same series designation (MPF), physical dimensions, and lead spacing. This part is in active production status and carries ROHS3 compliance certification. The 24FB4460A-F is the direct successor within the same product line and is the preferred choice where exact physical and electrical interchange is required.

SFT44T60K475B-F (Functional Equivalent)

The SFT44T60K475B-F represents a different series (SF) within the CDE product portfolio and delivers the same electrical performance across capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, dielectric material, and operating temperature specifications. Physical dimensions vary slightly: lead spacing is 0.070mm shorter, diameter is 0.13mm smaller, and height is 3.30mm shorter. This part is in active production and carries ROHS3 compliance. The SFT44T60K475B-F is suitable where electrical performance is the primary selection criterion and minor dimensional variations are acceptable within the mechanical mounting envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 24FB4460A-F directly replace the 24FB4460 in existing installations?

A: Yes. The 24FB4460A-F is identical in electrical and mechanical specifications, including capacitance, voltage rating, physical dimensions, lead spacing, and mounting configuration. Direct substitution is appropriate for systems where the original part is no longer obtainable.

Q: What is the difference between the 24FB4460A-F and SFT44T60K475B-F?

A: Both parts deliver identical electrical performance in terms of capacitance (60 µF), voltage rating (440V AC), tolerance (±10%), dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 70°C). The 24FB4460A-F maintains the original physical footprint and dimensions exactly. The SFT44T60K475B-F differs in physical dimensions: the lead spacing is 0.070mm shorter, diameter is 0.13mm smaller, and seated height is 3.30mm shorter. Both parts use the same termination style (quick connect/disconnect) and mounting method (chassis mount with holder/bracket).

Q: Does the dimensional variation in the SFT44T60K475B-F affect circuit board layout?

A: The dimensional differences (lead spacing of 0.810" versus 0.813", diameter difference of 0.13mm, and height difference of 3.30mm) must be evaluated within the specific mechanical mounting envelope of the target application. The lead spacing tolerance is within standard manufacturing acceptable variation for radial component footprints. Height and diameter variations should be verified against available mounting space and holder/bracket clearance in the target installation.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 24FB4460A-F and SFT44T60K475B-F carry ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current electronic materials restrictions. The original 24FB4460 does not carry RoHS compliance status.

Q: Which applications are these film capacitors designed for?

A: These 60 µF, 440V AC polypropylene metallized film capacitors are specified for motor run and power factor correction (PFC) applications. The radial, can-style construction with quick-connect termination is standard for industrial motor capacitor installations requiring chassis mount configuration with holder/bracket support.
