API Delevan 4922-05L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan 4922-05L is a 2.2 µH unshielded drum core wirewound inductor rated for 3.7 A continuous current with a maximum DC resistance of 29 mOhm. This surface mount component operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is specified with ±15% inductance tolerance. The part is currently in active production status with 804 pieces available in inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the same product category. Alternative models may be required due to inventory availability, compliance requirements, or supply chain considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 4922-05L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Inductance value: 2.2 µH
• Inductance tolerance: ±15%
• Current rating: 3.7 A minimum
• Saturation current: 3.7 A minimum
• DC resistance: 29 mOhm maximum

Mechanical Parameters:

• Core type: Drum core, wirewound
• Core material: Ferrite
• Shielding configuration: Unshielded
• Mounting type: Surface mount
• Package dimensions: 0.505" L x 0.240" W (12.82 mm x 6.09 mm)
• Height seated maximum: 0.230" (5.84 mm)
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1

Environmental Parameters:

• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C
• Inductance test frequency: 1 kHz

The 4922R-05L meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters and is therefore classified as a direct substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

4922-05L Selection Criteria: The 4922-05L is suitable for applications where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable or where legacy component specifications are required. Current inventory of 804 pieces supports immediate availability for standard procurement cycles.

4922R-05L Selection Criteria: The 4922R-05L is the preferred substitute when ROHS3 compliance is mandated by design requirements or regulatory standards. This variant maintains electrical and mechanical equivalence while meeting modern environmental compliance standards. Higher inventory availability (2100 pieces) provides extended supply security.

Substitution Decision Basis: Selection between these parts is determined solely by compliance requirements and inventory availability. Both parts are manufactured by API Delevan Inc. and maintain identical electrical performance, current ratings, thermal characteristics, and physical dimensions. The primary differentiator is RoHS compliance status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 4922R-05L replace the 4922-05L in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 4922R-05L is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 4922-05L. All critical parameters including inductance, current rating, DC resistance, core material, dimensions, and operating temperature range are identical. The parts are interchangeable from a functional standpoint.

Q: What is the difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. The 4922-05L is RoHS non-compliant, while the 4922R-05L is ROHS3 compliant. Secondary differences include inventory levels and series designation (4922 versus 4922R). All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions: 0.505" L x 0.240" W (12.82 mm x 6.09 mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.230" (5.84 mm). Both are packaged in Tape & Reel format and mount identically on PCBs.

Q: Which part should I specify for new designs?

A: Specify the 4922R-05L for new designs unless legacy component specifications explicitly require the 4922-05L. The 4922R-05L provides ROHS3 compliance and higher inventory availability while maintaining complete electrical and mechanical equivalence.

Q: Are the current ratings identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 3.7 A continuous current with identical saturation current (Isat) of 3.7 A and maximum DC resistance of 29 mOhm.

Q: Do these parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C with identical thermal characteristics.

Q: Is the inductance tolerance the same?

A: Yes. Both parts specify ±15% inductance tolerance at 1 kHz test frequency.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same production batch?

A: Yes. From an electrical and mechanical standpoint, these parts are fully interchangeable. However, design documentation and compliance requirements should be reviewed to ensure RoHS status does not create conflicts within the assembly or end-product specifications.
