Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 6839BPE-10PK is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Voltage Rating: 28V (exact match required)
• MSCP (Mean Spherical Candle Power): 0.13 (luminous intensity specification)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Lens Size: T-1 (physical envelope)
• Lens Style: Round with Domed Top (optical geometry)
• Lead Style: Radial - Bi-Pin .100 (electrical connection and mounting interface)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• REACH Unaffected status
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1

The substitute part 6839BPE meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters and maintains equivalent compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 6839BPE serves as a direct functional equivalent to the 6839BPE-10PK. Both components are manufactured by VCC and share identical electrical specifications (28V, 0.13 MSCP), mechanical configuration (T-1 lens, Round with Domed Top, Radial Bi-Pin .100 leads), and compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, MSL 1).

The primary distinction between the two parts is packaging: the 6839BPE-10PK is supplied in a 10-pack configuration, while the 6839BPE is available in bulk packaging. For applications requiring individual units or quantities not aligned with 10-pack multiples, the bulk 6839BPE provides equivalent performance with flexible quantity selection.

Both parts carry "Not For New Designs" status, indicating they are suitable for maintenance and repair of existing systems but should not be specified for new product development.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6839BPE (bulk) directly replace the 6839BPE-10PK (10-pack)?

A: Yes. The 6839BPE is electrically and mechanically identical to the individual lamps contained in the 6839BPE-10PK. The difference is packaging format only. The bulk 6839BPE allows procurement of exact quantities needed without purchasing full 10-pack units.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical voltage ratings (28V), luminous intensity (0.13 MSCP), and optical characteristics (Clear color, T-1 Round with Domed Top lens).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both the 6839BPE-10PK and 6839BPE are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What is the mechanical compatibility between these parts?

A: Both parts use identical lead styles (Radial - Bi-Pin .100) and lens sizes (T-1), ensuring direct mechanical compatibility in any application designed for either part number.

Q: Why is the 6839BPE-10PK discontinued?

A: The discontinuation reflects end-of-life status in the distribution channel. The individual component 6839BPE remains available in bulk packaging for ongoing support of legacy systems.

Q: Can I use the 6839BPE in applications originally designed for the 6839BPE-10PK?

A: Yes. The 6839BPE is functionally equivalent and can be used as a direct replacement. Procurement should be based on required quantity and packaging preference.
