Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 2D7UL is classified as a parametric equivalent to the 2C7UL based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 7A (identical)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 480V (identical)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 250V (identical)
• Breaker Type: Thermal Magnetic (identical)
• Number of Poles: 2 (identical)
• Actuator Type: Lever (identical)
• Mounting Type: DIN Rail (identical)
• Approval Agencies: CE, cULus, UL489 (identical)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)

Both parts belong to the Altech Corporation UL series and maintain full compliance with the same regulatory standards. The 2D7UL is suitable as a direct substitute where the 2C7UL is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 2C7UL and 2D7UL maintain active production status and are fully compliant with CE, cULus, and UL489 certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and supply chain requirements. Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH regulatory requirements. The 2C7UL currently has higher inventory availability at 1,021 units compared to 976 units for the 2D7UL. Either part is suitable for applications requiring a 7A, 480V AC / 250V DC, 2-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker with lever actuation on DIN Rail mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2D7UL be used as a direct replacement for the 2C7UL?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 7A current rating, 480V AC / 250V DC voltage ratings, 2-pole configuration, lever actuation, thermal magnetic operation, and DIN Rail mounting. Both hold identical regulatory certifications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both the 2C7UL and 2D7UL carry CE, cULus, and UL489 approvals, maintain ROHS3 compliance, and are REACH unaffected.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this circuit breaker category?

A: Substitution is valid when the following parameters match: current rating, AC voltage rating, DC voltage rating, breaker type, number of poles, actuator type, mounting type, and regulatory certifications.

Q: Which part should be selected based on availability?

A: The 2C7UL has 1,021 units in stock, while the 2D7UL has 976 units available. Selection should prioritize current inventory levels and delivery requirements.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same mounting configuration?

A: Yes. Both parts use DIN Rail mounting and are mechanically compatible with standard DIN Rail installations.
