Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the VCC 7009 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Voltage Rating: 28V (exact match required)
• MSCP Output: 0.15 (exact match required)
• Current Rating: Functional equivalence at specified voltage

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Lead Style: Wire Terminal configuration
• Lens Size: T-1 or RT-1 classification (functionally equivalent in 28V lamp category)
• Color: Clear (standard specification)

Regulatory & Compliance:

• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 or equivalent
• REACH Status: Unaffected or compliant

The CEC Industries 6838 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching voltage rating (28V), identical MSCP output (0.15), compatible wire terminal lead style, and equivalent lens size classification (T-1 as functional equivalent to RT-1 in this product category). Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: CEC Industries 6838

The CEC Industries 6838 is the designated substitute for the obsolete VCC 7009. Selection is based on:

1. Electrical Match: Both components operate at 28V with 0.15 MSCP output, ensuring functional equivalence in lighting applications.

2. Mechanical Compatibility: Wire terminal lead style is consistent between both parts. Lens size classification (T-1 versus RT-1) represents a functional equivalent within the 28V incandescent lamp category.

3. Product Status: The CEC Industries 6838 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

4. Regulatory Compliance: The VCC 7009 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The CEC Industries 6838 should be verified for equivalent compliance status during procurement.

5. Inventory Availability: Both components are available in stock (VCC 7009: 984 Pcs; CEC Industries 6838: 950 Pcs).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CEC Industries 6838 directly replace the VCC 7009 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical voltage rating (28V) and light output (0.15 MSCP). Wire terminal lead styles are compatible. Mechanical fit should be confirmed based on specific socket or terminal configuration in the application.

Q: What is the difference between RT-1 and T-1 lens sizes?

A: RT-1 and T-1 represent different lens shape classifications. In the 28V incandescent lamp category with matching voltage and MSCP specifications, these are functionally equivalent for lighting output and electrical performance.

Q: Why is the VCC 7009 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The CEC Industries 6838 provides functional continuity for applications requiring 28V, 0.15 MSCP incandescent lamps with wire terminal configuration.

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

A: The VCC 7009 is confirmed ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Compliance documentation for the CEC Industries 6838 should be obtained from the manufacturer during procurement to ensure regulatory alignment with your application requirements.

Q: What is the current rating for these lamps?

A: The VCC 7009 specification does not include explicit current rating data. The CEC Industries 6838 is specified at 0.024A at 28V. This should be verified against your application's electrical requirements.

Q: Can these lamps be used interchangeably in all 28V lighting circuits?

A: Interchangeability depends on specific circuit design, socket type, and terminal configuration. Both components feature wire terminal leads and identical electrical ratings (28V, 0.15 MSCP), supporting direct substitution in compatible applications. Physical fit verification is required for each installation.
