Equivalent & Substitute Parts: VCC 367 Incandescent Lamp

Part Overview

The VCC 367 is an incandescent lamp designed for indicator and signaling applications. This component features a 10V voltage rating with a clear round domed top lens in RT-1 3/4 size, mounted on a midget flange base. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing maintenance and repair operations. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical performance characteristics and mechanical compatibility with existing installations.

Key Parameters

Parameter Value Substitution Relevance
Voltage Rating 10V Critical - must match exactly
MSCP (Mean Spherical Candle Power) 0.08 Critical - determines light output
Lens Style Round with Domed Top Critical - optical and mechanical fit
Lens Size RT-1 3/4 Critical - physical dimensions
Lead Style Midget Flange Critical - electrical connection interface
Type Incandescent Critical - technology type
Color Clear Important - optical transmission
RoHS Status ROHS3 Compliant Regulatory compliance

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the VCC 367 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

  • Voltage Rating: 10V (electrical safety and performance)
  • MSCP: 0.08 (light output intensity)
  • Lead Style: Midget Flange (mechanical and electrical connection)
  • Lens Size: RT-1 3/4 or T-1.75 equivalent (physical fit in fixture)
  • Type: Incandescent (technology compatibility)
  • Color: Clear (optical characteristics)

The CEC Industries 367 qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains all critical electrical parameters (10V, 0.08 MSCP) and mechanical specifications (T-1.75 lens size with SX6S midget flange base). Both parts are designed for identical applications and fixture compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CEC Industries 367 is the direct functional equivalent for the VCC 367. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts operate at 10V with identical 0.08 MSCP light output, ensuring equivalent performance in existing circuits and fixtures.

Mechanical Compatibility: The T-1.75 lens size with SX6S midget flange base provides identical mounting and connection characteristics to the original RT-1 3/4 midget flange configuration.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification, confirming equivalent export control status. The CEC Industries part maintains current production status, ensuring ongoing availability for replacement applications.

Availability: The CEC Industries 367 is in active production with confirmed inventory, whereas the VCC 367 is obsolete. Direct substitution is appropriate for all new installations and maintenance applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CEC Industries 367 be used as a direct replacement for the VCC 367?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. They share identical voltage ratings (10V), light output (0.08 MSCP), lens configuration (T-1.75/RT-1 3/4), and midget flange base specifications. Direct substitution is appropriate without circuit or fixture modifications.

Q: What does the T-1.75 designation mean, and how does it relate to RT-1 3/4?

A: T-1.75 and RT-1 3/4 are equivalent designations for the same lens diameter (1.75 inches or 3/4 inch). The CEC Industries part uses the T-1.75 nomenclature while the VCC part uses RT-1 3/4. Both refer to identical physical dimensions.

Q: Are there any differences in base specifications between the two parts?

A: Both parts use midget flange bases. The CEC Industries part specifies SX6S base designation, which is the standard midget flange configuration compatible with the original VCC 367 fixture interface.

Q: Why is the VCC 367 listed as obsolete?

A: The VCC 367 has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The CEC Industries 367 remains in active production and serves as the current equivalent for this application.

Q: Do both parts have the same regulatory compliance status?

A: Yes. Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and are subject to identical export control regulations. The CEC Industries part is ROHS3 compliant, matching the regulatory status of the original VCC component.

Q: What is the packaging configuration for the CEC Industries substitute?

A: The CEC Industries 367 is supplied in boxes of 10 units, as indicated in the product description. Verify packaging requirements for your specific application needs.
