API Delevan 6494-010 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan 6494-010 is a laminated core power transformer rated at 25VA with dual primary and secondary windings. This component is classified as obsolete and is no longer in active production. The 6494-010 features chassis mount configuration with solder and quick connect termination options, designed for applications requiring 115V or 130V primary input with configurable secondary output in parallel (5V) or series (10V) modes.

Due to its obsolete status, sourcing new original inventory of the 6494-010 is subject to availability constraints. Identification of active equivalent models ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability for ongoing production and maintenance applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 6494-010 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The primary criteria for substitution include:

Electrical Equivalence:

• Identical power rating (25VA)
• Matching secondary winding configuration (dual windings with parallel 5V and series 10V output capability)
• Identical maximum output current specifications (parallel 5A, series 2.5A)
• Equivalent isolation voltage rating (4000Vrms)

Mechanical Equivalence:

• Identical mounting type (chassis mount)
• Matching termination style (solder and quick connect)
• Identical physical dimensions (71.44mm L × 47.63mm W × 58.74mm H maximum height)

Primary Voltage Compatibility: The 6494-010 accepts 115V or 130V primary input. Substitute parts must support at least the 115V primary voltage requirement to ensure functional compatibility in existing designs.

The API Delevan 6494R-010 meets all substitution criteria while offering active product status and improved compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The API Delevan 6494R-010 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 6494-010 model. Selection of the 6494R-010 is supported by the following factors:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters are identical between the two models, including power rating, secondary output configurations, current ratings, and isolation voltage. Physical dimensions and mounting characteristics are unchanged, ensuring direct mechanical compatibility in existing chassis designs.

Product Status: The 6494R-010 maintains active production status with confirmed inventory availability (1138 pieces in stock), eliminating supply chain risk associated with the obsolete 6494-010.

Regulatory Compliance: The 6494R-010 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing improved environmental and regulatory alignment compared to the non-compliant 6494-010. The EAR99 export classification provides standard regulatory treatment for international applications.

Primary Voltage Consideration: While the 6494R-010 offers expanded primary voltage options (115V and 230V) compared to the 6494-010 (115V and 130V), both models support the standard 115V primary voltage. Applications requiring 130V primary input must confirm that 115V operation is acceptable for the intended circuit design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6494R-010 directly replace the 6494-010 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6494R-010 provides identical electrical output specifications and physical dimensions. Both models feature dual primary and secondary windings with matching 5V parallel and 10V series output configurations, identical current ratings, and equivalent isolation voltage. Chassis mount and termination styles are unchanged.

Q: What is the primary voltage difference between these models?

A: The 6494-010 supports 115V or 130V primary input. The 6494R-010 supports 115V or 230V primary input. Both models operate at 115V, which is the standard industrial primary voltage. Applications originally designed for 130V primary input require circuit evaluation to confirm compatibility with 115V operation.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two models?

A: Yes. The 6494-010 is RoHS non-compliant. The 6494R-010 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. For applications subject to environmental or regulatory requirements, the 6494R-010 provides improved compliance status.

Q: Will the 6494R-010 fit in the same physical space as the 6494-010?

A: Yes. Both models have identical dimensions: 71.44mm length, 47.63mm width, and 58.74mm maximum seated height. No mechanical redesign or chassis modification is required.

Q: What termination options are available on the 6494R-010?

A: The 6494R-010 provides both solder and quick connect termination styles, matching the 6494-010 configuration. Component selection depends on the specific circuit board or chassis connection method used in the application.

Q: Is the 6494R-010 currently available?

A: Yes. The 6494R-010 is an active product with 1138 pieces in stock, providing reliable supply availability compared to the obsolete 6494-010.
