API Delevan Inc. 6497-010 Power Transformer Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan Inc. 6497-010 is a laminated core power transformer rated at 130VA with dual primary and secondary windings. This component is designed for chassis mount applications with solder and quick connect termination options. The transformer provides selectable output configurations: parallel 5V at 26A or series 10V at 13A, with primary voltage options of 115V or 230V.

The 6497-010 carries an obsolete product status. Identification of active equivalent components is necessary to ensure continued availability, supply chain reliability, and compliance with current regulatory standards for new designs and production requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 6497-010 with the active 6497R-010 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both components share identical electrical specifications: 130VA power rating, dual primary windings supporting 115V and 230V input, dual secondary windings with parallel 5V/26A and series 10V/13A output configurations, laminated core construction, and 4000Vrms isolation voltage.

Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through matching mounting type (chassis mount), termination style (solder and quick connect), and functional dimensions. The 6497R-010 maintains the same physical footprint and height specifications as the original 6497-010, ensuring direct mechanical fit in existing designs.

The primary distinction between these components is product status and regulatory compliance. The 6497-010 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the 6497R-010 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6497R-010 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 6497-010. Selection of the 6497R-010 is appropriate for all applications requiring the electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component.

The 6497R-010 provides the following advantages over the obsolete 6497-010:

Product Availability: The 6497R-010 maintains active product status with confirmed inventory, ensuring reliable supply chain access for current and future production requirements.

Regulatory Compliance: The 6497R-010 is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and material restriction directives. The original 6497-010 is RoHS non-compliant and unsuitable for applications subject to RoHS requirements.

Export Classification: The 6497R-010 carries EAR99 classification, providing clear export control status for international distribution and supply chain planning.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All electrical parameters and mechanical specifications are identical between the two components, confirming direct substitution capability without circuit redesign or mechanical modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 6497-010 and 6497R-010 electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications: 130VA power rating, dual primary windings (115V/230V), dual secondary windings (parallel 5V/26A, series 10V/13A), laminated core construction, and 4000Vrms isolation voltage.

Q: Can the 6497R-010 be used as a direct replacement for the 6497-010 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6497R-010 is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the 6497-010. Mounting type, termination style, and physical dimensions are identical, enabling direct substitution without circuit modification or mechanical redesign.

Q: What is the difference in physical dimensions between these components?

A: The 6497-010 has dimensions of 73.03mm L x 71.44mm W. The 6497R-010 has dimensions of 71.44mm L x 73.03mm W. Both components have identical height specifications of 85.73mm (seated max). The dimensional difference represents a rotation of the component orientation; the footprint area and mounting compatibility remain unchanged.

Q: Why is the 6497-010 listed as obsolete?

A: The 6497-010 has reached end-of-life status. The 6497R-010 is the active replacement component from API Delevan Inc., offering continued product support and supply availability.

Q: Is the 6497R-010 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 6497R-010 is ROHS3 compliant. The original 6497-010 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the 6497R-010 is the appropriate selection.

Q: What is the inventory status of the 6497R-010?

A: The 6497R-010 has 776 pieces of new original stock available, confirming active product status and supply chain availability.

Q: Are both termination styles (solder and quick connect) available on the 6497R-010?

A: Yes. The 6497R-010 supports both solder and quick connect termination styles, matching the termination options of the original 6497-010.

Q: What is the export classification for the 6497R-010?

A: The 6497R-010 carries EAR99 export classification, indicating it is subject to U.S. export control regulations but is generally authorized for export to most destinations.
