Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 2E50UM are identified as parametric equivalents within the Altech V-EA series. The 2D50UM and 2G50UM share identical electrical ratings (50A, 480V AC, 60V DC), mechanical configuration (2-pole, lever-actuated, DIN rail mount), and regulatory certifications (CSA, UL508). These parts differ only in their base product designation (2D50 and 2G50 respectively) while maintaining full compatibility across all specified parameters. Substitution is valid based on matching current rating, voltage ratings, breaker type, mounting configuration, and approval certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—2E50UM, 2D50UM, and 2G50UM—are active products with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these equivalents may be based on inventory availability and packaging considerations. The 2E50UM maintains 1161 units in stock, the 2D50UM has 710 units available, and the 2G50UM has 1054 units in stock. All parts carry CSA and UL508 certifications, confirming compliance for industrial control applications. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status apply uniformly across all three options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 2D50UM and 2G50UM be used as direct replacements for 2E50UM? A: Yes. All three parts share identical current ratings (50A), voltage ratings (480V AC, 60V DC), breaker type (thermal magnetic), mounting configuration (DIN rail, 2-pole, lever actuator), and regulatory certifications (CSA, UL508). They are parametric equivalents within the V-EA series.

Q: What distinguishes these three part numbers if they are equivalent? A: The parts differ only in their base product designation (2E50, 2D50, 2G50). All other electrical, mechanical, and regulatory parameters are identical. The designation difference does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory differences between these parts? A: All three parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Inventory levels differ: 2E50UM (1161 pcs), 2D50UM (710 pcs), and 2G50UM (1054 pcs). Selection may depend on required quantity and delivery timeline.

Q: Do all three parts meet the same regulatory standards? A: Yes. All three parts carry CSA and UL508 approvals, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status. They are suitable for identical applications requiring these certifications.

Q: Can these parts be mixed in the same installation? A: Yes. Since all three parts are parametric equivalents with matching electrical ratings, voltage ratings, and mechanical configurations, they can be used interchangeably within the same circuit or installation.
