6024-048 Power Transformer - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 6024-048 is a laminated core power transformer manufactured by API Delevan Inc., rated for 6VA maximum power with dual primary and secondary windings. The primary winding operates at 115V or 230V, while the secondary winding delivers either 24V (parallel configuration, 250mA maximum) or 48V (series configuration, 125mA maximum). This part is classified as obsolete, making the identification of equivalent substitute components essential for maintaining compatibility in applications requiring this transformer specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 6024-048 is determined by strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching across the following critical specifications:

• Power Rating: 6VA (exact match required)
• Primary Voltage Options: 115V and 230V dual-selectable (exact match required)
• Secondary Voltage Configuration: Parallel 24V at 250mA and Series 48V at 125mA (exact match required)
• Winding Configuration: Dual primary and dual secondary windings (exact match required)
• Core Type: Laminated core construction (exact match required)
• Mounting and Termination: Through-hole mounting with PC pin termination (exact match required)
• Isolation Voltage: 2500Vrms (minimum specification to maintain)
• Physical Dimensions: 41.28mm L × 33.32mm W × 33.32mm H (exact match required for board compatibility)

A substitute part must match all electrical parameters identically and maintain identical physical dimensions and mounting characteristics to ensure form-fit-function compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6024R-048 qualifies as a direct functional equivalent to the 6024-048 based on electrical parameter equivalence and identical mechanical specifications. The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance:

• 6024-048: Obsolete status with RoHS non-compliance designation
• 6024R-048: Active product status with RoHS3 compliance certification

The 6024R-048 represents the current active production part from the same manufacturer within the same series family (6024 series), incorporating modern RoHS3 compliance requirements while maintaining identical electrical performance and physical form factor. Selection of the 6024R-048 provides access to active inventory and current manufacturing status, eliminating obsolescence risk inherent with the 6024-048.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6024R-048 replace the 6024-048 directly?

A: Yes. Both transformers share identical electrical specifications (6VA power rating, 115V/230V primary, 24V parallel/48V series secondary configurations) and physical dimensions (41.28mm L × 33.32mm W × 33.32mm H). They are compatible for direct substitution in through-hole mounted PCB applications without design modification.

Q: What is the significance of the "R" designation in the 6024R series?

A: The 6024R series designation indicates the updated production variant within the API Delevan 6024 transformer family. The 6024R-048 incorporates RoHS3 compliance, distinguishing it as the current active production part while the 6024-048 is classified as obsolete.

Q: Does RoHS3 compliance affect functional performance?

A: RoHS3 compliance affects material composition and manufacturing processes but does not alter the electrical or mechanical specifications provided. Transformer performance parameters (power rating, voltage levels, isolation rating, output current capacity) remain identical between both parts.

Q: Are there inventory availability differences?

A: The 6024-048 has 1012 pieces in stock, while the 6024R-048 has 759 pieces available. However, the 6024-048's obsolete status indicates that stock depletion is possible without future replenishment, while the 6024R-048's active status ensures ongoing availability from the manufacturer.

Q: How do I verify compatibility before installation?

A: Confirm that your application requires a 6VA laminated core transformer with dual primary windings supporting 115V/230V operation and dual secondary windings delivering either 24V at 250mA (parallel) or 48V at 125mA (series). Verify that your PCB layout accommodates the 41.28mm × 33.32mm footprint with through-hole PC pin termination pattern. Both transformers meet these criteria identically.
