Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the VCC 8098 is based on electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The primary substitution parameters are:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Voltage Rating: 14V (exact match required)
• Luminous Intensity: 0.15 MSCP (exact match required)

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Lens Size: RT-1 or equivalent T-1 configuration
• Lead Termination: Radial bi-pin or wire terminal configurations
• Physical Form Factor: Round lens geometry

The CEC Industries 8111 provides electrical equivalence through matching voltage rating and luminous intensity specifications. While the lead style differs from the original radial bi-pin configuration to a wire terminal format, both termination styles accommodate standard lamp socket applications within the specified electrical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CEC Industries 8111 serves as a functional substitute for the obsolete VCC 8098 based on matching electrical specifications: identical 14V voltage rating and 0.15 MSCP luminous intensity output. Both components are incandescent lamps with clear lens coloring, ensuring optical performance equivalence.

The primary distinction between these components is the lead termination style. The VCC 8098 employs radial bi-pin configuration at 0.050 inch spacing, while the CEC Industries 8111 utilizes wire terminal leads. This mechanical difference requires socket or connector compatibility assessment during integration. The CEC Industries 8111 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete VCC 8098.

RoHS3 compliance is confirmed for the VCC 8098. Compliance status for the CEC Industries 8111 is not specified in available documentation and should be verified against specific application requirements if regulatory compliance is mandated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CEC Industries 8111 directly replace the VCC 8098 without modification?

A: Electrical substitution is valid based on matching 14V voltage rating and 0.15 MSCP output. Mechanical compatibility depends on the socket or connector type in the target application. The wire terminal leads of the CEC Industries 8111 differ from the radial bi-pin configuration of the VCC 8098, requiring assessment of the receiving socket design.

Q: What are the critical parameters for lamp substitution?

A: Voltage rating and luminous intensity (MSCP) are the primary electrical parameters determining substitution validity. Both the VCC 8098 and CEC Industries 8111 match at 14V and 0.15 MSCP. Lead termination style and lens size are mechanical parameters that must align with the application's socket or connector specifications.

Q: Is the CEC Industries 8111 available in the same packaging as the VCC 8098?

A: The CEC Industries 8111 is packaged as a box of 10 units. Original packaging specifications for the VCC 8098 are not detailed in available documentation. Packaging compatibility should be evaluated based on specific procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Does the CEC Industries 8111 meet RoHS3 compliance requirements?

A: RoHS3 compliance is confirmed for the VCC 8098. The RoHS status of the CEC Industries 8111 is not specified in provided documentation. Applications requiring verified RoHS3 compliance should confirm this specification with the manufacturer or authorized distributor.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level of the substitute part?

A: The VCC 8098 has a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited moisture tolerance. The MSL for the CEC Industries 8111 is listed as Not Applicable, typical for wire terminal lamp configurations. Storage and handling requirements should follow the specifications provided by the component manufacturer.
