API Delevan 6498-024 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan 6498-024 is a laminated core power transformer rated at 175VA with dual primary and secondary windings. The transformer provides selectable output configurations through parallel (12V, 14.6A) or series (24V, 7.3A) winding connections. Primary voltage options include 115V or 230V, with 4000Vrms isolation rating. This component is designed for chassis mount applications with solder and quick connect termination options.

The 6498-024 carries an obsolete product status. Identification of active equivalent components is necessary to ensure continued availability, compliance with current regulatory standards, and access to reliable supply chain inventory.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 6498-024 with the active 6498R-024 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both components share identical specifications across all critical functional parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Identical power rating (175VA)
• Matching primary voltage options (115V, 230V)
• Identical secondary voltage configurations (Parallel 12V, Series 24V)
• Matching output current ratings (Parallel 14.6A, Series 7.3A)
• Equivalent isolation voltage (4000Vrms)
• Identical winding configuration (Dual primary, Dual secondary)

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Identical core type (Laminated)
• Matching physical dimensions (79.38mm L x 73.03mm W)
• Identical height specification (95.25mm seated maximum)
• Equivalent mounting type (Chassis Mount)
• Matching termination options (Solder, Quick Connect)

The 6498R-024 represents the active production equivalent with current regulatory compliance and improved supply chain availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6498R-024 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 6498-024. Selection of the 6498R-024 is supported by the following factors:

Functional Equivalence: All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, ensuring direct functional replacement without circuit redesign or mechanical modification.
