Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 6053-012 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Power rating: 12VA
  • Primary voltage configuration: 115V, 230V dual input
  • Secondary voltage output: Parallel 6.3V, Series 12.6V
  • Secondary current capacity: Parallel 1.8A, Series 900mA
  • Winding configuration: Dual primary, dual secondary
  • Core type: Laminated
  • Mounting: Through hole with PC pin termination
  • Physical dimensions: 34.93mm L x 28.58mm W, 30.15mm height maximum

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6053R-012 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 6053-012. Both components are manufactured by API Delevan Inc. and share identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. The 6053R-012 is currently in active production status with 1097 units available in inventory.

The primary distinction between these parts is regulatory compliance. The 6053R-012 is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the 6053-012 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS directives or requiring compliance with current environmental regulations, the 6053R-012 is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain REACH unaffected status and EAR99 export classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6053R-012 directly replace the 6053-012 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6053R-012 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 6053-012. All electrical parameters, winding configurations, output ratings, and physical dimensions are identical. Through-hole mounting and PC pin termination are unchanged.

Q: What is the difference between the 6053-012 and 6053R-012?

A: The primary differences are product status and RoHS compliance. The 6053-012 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. The 6053R-012 is active production and ROHS3 compliant. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting the 6053R-012 for the 6053-012?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Identical dimensions, mounting type, termination style, and electrical ratings ensure direct substitution without circuit board modifications or design changes.

Q: What is the isolation voltage rating for both parts?

A: Both the 6053-012 and 6053R-012 provide 1500Vrms isolation voltage between primary and secondary windings.

Q: Can these transformers be configured for different output voltages?

A: Yes. Both parts feature dual secondary windings that can be connected in parallel for 6.3V output at 1.8A maximum current, or in series for 12.6V output at 900mA maximum current.

Q: What is the maximum power rating?

A: Both transformers are rated at 12VA maximum power.
