Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 6015R-020 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 6015-020 based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution is valid because both components share identical specifications across all critical parameters: 12VA power rating, 115V primary voltage, dual secondary windings with 10V parallel and 20V series configurations, matching output current ratings (1.2A parallel, 600mA series), identical laminated core construction, through-hole mounting, PC pin termination, matching physical dimensions (47.63mm L × 39.67mm W × 36.50mm H), and equivalent 2500Vrms isolation voltage.

The key parameters determining substitutability are: power rating (12VA), primary voltage (115V), secondary voltage configuration (10V/20V), maximum output current (1.2A/600mA), core type (laminated), mounting method (through hole), and termination style (PC pin).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6015R-020 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete 6015-020 due to complete electrical and mechanical parameter alignment combined with superior compliance status. The 6015R-020 holds active product status with API Delevan Inc., ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. The substitute meets RoHS3 compliance requirements, whereas the original 6015-020 is RoHS non-compliant. Both components maintain identical REACH and ECCN classification (EAR99). The 6015R-020 provides equivalent functional performance with improved regulatory compliance for new applications and system redesigns requiring this transformer specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 6015-020 and 6015R-020 pin-compatible? A: Yes. Both components use PC pin termination with identical through-hole mounting configuration and matching physical dimensions (47.63mm L × 39.67mm W × 36.50mm H max seated height). Direct PCB layout compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the difference between the 6015-020 and 6015R-020? A: The components are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all operating parameters. The primary difference is product status: the 6015-020 is obsolete while the 6015R-020 is active. Additionally, the 6015R-020 achieves RoHS3 compliance, whereas the 6015-020 is RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Can the 6015R-020 replace the 6015-020 in existing designs? A: Yes. The 6015R-020 provides direct substitution with identical voltage ratings (115V primary, 10V/20V secondary), current ratings (1.2A parallel, 600mA series), power rating (12VA), isolation voltage (2500Vrms), and core type (laminated). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: Is inventory available for these transformers? A: The 6015-020 (obsolete) has 765 units in stock as new original inventory. The 6015R-020 (active) has 882 units in stock as new original inventory, providing greater supply continuity.

Q: What secondary voltage configurations are supported? A: Both transformers feature dual secondary windings supporting parallel (10V, 1.2A maximum) and series (20V, 600mA maximum) configurations with no center tap.

Q: Are export restrictions or compliance certifications different between these parts? A: Both components share identical ECCN classification (EAR99), identical HTSUS code (8504.31.4035), and identical REACH status (REACH Unaffected). The 6015R-020 provides improved RoHS3 compliance compared to the non-compliant 6015-020.
