API Delevan 6052-012 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan 6052-012 is a laminated core power transformer rated at 6VA with dual primary and secondary windings. This through-hole mounted component provides selectable output configurations through parallel (6.3V, 900mA) or series (12.6V, 450mA) winding connections. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing design support and procurement requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 6052-012 is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish functional interchangeability:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Power rating: 6VA
• Primary voltage options: 115V, 230V
• Secondary voltage configurations: Parallel 6.3V and Series 12.6V
• Output current capacity: Parallel 900mA, Series 450mA
• Isolation voltage: 1500Vrms
• Winding configuration: Dual primary, dual secondary

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Core type: Laminated
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Physical dimensions: 34.93mm L × 28.58mm W × 23.80mm H

Compliance Considerations: Substitute parts may differ in product status (active vs. obsolete) and RoHS compliance classification, provided all electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6052R-012 is a direct functional equivalent to the 6052-012 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the 6052-012 is classified as obsolete, while the 6052R-012 is active production.

Compliance Advantage: The 6052R-012 carries ROHS3 compliance certification, whereas the 6052-012 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements, the 6052R-012 provides compliance alignment without electrical or mechanical compromise.

Inventory Availability: The 6052R-012 maintains active inventory status (660 pcs in stock) compared to the 6052-012 (978 pcs, obsolete status). For new designs or long-term production planning, the 6052R-012 ensures sustained component availability.

Electrical Equivalence: Both transformers deliver identical performance across all specified parameters: 6VA power capacity, dual primary/secondary winding configuration, selectable output voltage (6.3V parallel or 12.6V series), and 1500Vrms isolation rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6052R-012 replace the 6052-012 in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. The 6052R-012 is electrically and mechanically identical to the 6052-012. All voltage ratings, current capacities, winding configurations, mounting specifications, and physical dimensions match exactly. Direct substitution is valid for PCB layouts and circuit schematics.

Q: What is the significance of the "R" designation in the 6052R-012 part number?

A: The "R" suffix indicates the active production variant with ROHS3 compliance. The electrical and mechanical specifications remain unchanged from the original 6052-012 design.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences between these transformers?

A: No. Both parts share identical dimensions: 34.93mm length, 28.58mm width, and 23.80mm seated height. PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are interchangeable.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect circuit performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and manufacturing process, not electrical performance. Both transformers deliver identical voltage regulation, current capacity, and isolation characteristics.

Q: Can I use the 6052R-012 in applications requiring RoHS certification?

A: Yes. The 6052R-012 is ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications with RoHS regulatory requirements. The 6052-012 is not RoHS compliant and may not meet regulatory requirements in certain jurisdictions.

Q: What output voltage configurations are available with these transformers?

A: Both transformers provide dual secondary winding configuration enabling two output modes: parallel connection (6.3V at 900mA) or series connection (12.6V at 450mA). Primary voltage selection is 115V or 230V.

Q: Is the 6052R-012 available for immediate procurement?

A: Yes. The 6052R-012 is classified as active product status with 660 pieces in current inventory. The 6052-012 is obsolete and subject to limited availability.
