• Functional Equivalence: Both components serve general purpose transient voltage suppression applications with single circuit configurations

The 2907919 provides enhanced specifications including documented voltage ratings, discharge current capabilities, and multi-agency approvals (CB, CSA, cUR, cURus, EAC, UR), supporting broader application validation and regulatory acceptance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 2905229 being replaced? A: The 2905229 is classified as obsolete. The 2907919 is an active product from the same manufacturer with equivalent form factor and functional characteristics, ensuring continued availability and support.

Q: Are the mounting interfaces identical between 2905229 and 2907919? A: Both parts utilize DIN Rail mounting. The 2907919 is configured as Base + Module, while the 2905229 is specified as Module. Verify mechanical compatibility with your specific DIN Rail installation before substitution.

Q: What are the key electrical differences? A: The 2905229 does not specify voltage or current ratings in the available documentation. The 2907919 provides documented specifications: 264VAC continuous operating voltage, 5 kA nominal discharge current (8/20µS), 10 kA maximum discharge current, and 1.4 kV protection level. Confirm these ratings align with your circuit protection requirements.

Q: Are there compliance differences? A: The 2907919 meets ROHS3 compliance, which supersedes the RoHS compliance of the 2905229. Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.30.8000) classifications. The 2907919 includes multi-agency approvals (CB, CSA, cUR, cURus, EAC, UR) not documented for the 2905229.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these devices? A: The 2905229 does not specify an operating temperature range. The 2907919 operates across -40°C to 80°C. Verify this range is suitable for your application environment.

Q: Can the 2907919 be used as a direct replacement in existing installations? A: Mechanical compatibility with DIN Rail mounting is confirmed. Electrical compatibility depends on your circuit's voltage and current requirements. The 2907919 specifications (264VAC, 5-10 kA discharge current, 1.4 kV protection level) must align with your application parameters.
