Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 25CPV240

Part Overview

The 25CPV240 is a solid-state relay (SSR) manufactured by Sensata-Crydom, configured as a SPST-NO (1 Form A) device in a hockey puck package. It is designed for AC load switching applications with a rated load current of 25 A and load voltage range of 180 V to 280 V. The device accepts a 0–5 VDC control input and features screw terminal connections.

The 25CPV240 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for replacement and new designs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 25CPV240 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain compatible:

• Circuit Configuration: SPST-NO (1 Form A) topology must be maintained
• Control Voltage: 0–5 VDC input specification
• Load Voltage Range: 180 V–280 V AC operation
• Package Type: Hockey puck form factor for mechanical fit
• Mounting Type: Chassis mount configuration
• Termination Style: Screw terminal connections

The MCPC2450A qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. While the MCPC2450A has a higher load current rating of 50 A (compared to 25 A for the 25CPV240), this represents an upward-compatible specification that does not compromise the original application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MCPC2450A is the designated manufacturer-recommended substitute for the 25CPV240. Selection of the MCPC2450A is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The MCPC2450A is active and currently manufactured, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.
• Compliance: The MCPC2450A is RoHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.
• Electrical Compatibility: All critical electrical parameters—control voltage, load voltage range, and circuit configuration—are identical to the 25CPV240.
• Mechanical Compatibility: The hockey puck package and screw terminal configuration ensure direct mechanical fit in existing designs.
• Current Rating: The 50 A load current rating of the MCPC2450A exceeds the 25 A requirement of the original application, providing margin and enhanced capability without compromising performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MCPC2450A directly replace the 25CPV240 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The MCPC2450A maintains identical control voltage (0–5 VDC), load voltage range (180 V–280 V), circuit configuration (SPST-NO), package type (hockey puck), and termination style (screw terminal). The higher current rating of the MCPC2450A does not prevent direct substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the higher 50 A current rating on the MCPC2450A?

A: The MCPC2450A is rated for 50 A load current, while the 25CPV240 is rated for 25 A. This represents an upward-compatible specification. Applications designed for 25 A operation will function within the MCPC2450A's capability envelope.

Q: Are there differences in control input requirements between the two parts?

A: No. Both the 25CPV240 and MCPC2450A accept 0–5 VDC control input and maintain identical load voltage operation at 180 V–280 V AC.

Q: Does the hockey puck package ensure mechanical interchangeability?

A: Yes. Both parts use the hockey puck form factor with chassis mount configuration and screw terminal connections, ensuring mechanical fit in existing designs without modification.

Q: What is the compliance status of the MCPC2450A?

A: The MCPC2450A is RoHS3 compliant and REACH affected, meeting current environmental regulations for electronic components.
