Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 2VR1 qualifies as a substitute for the Qualtek 854-02/001 based on the following critical parameters:

• Filter Type: Both are single-phase EMC/EMI line filters
• Configuration: Both feature two-stage design
• Current Rating: Both rated at 2A
• Frequency: Both operate at 50/60Hz
• Mounting: Both are chassis-mount with quick-connect termination
• Voltage Compatibility: The 2VR1 is rated for 250VAC, which falls within the voltage range of the main part (115V/250VAC)
• Regulatory Compliance: Both hold CSA, UR, and VDE approvals
• RoHS Status: Both are ROHS3 compliant

The 2VR1 operates within the same functional envelope and meets all critical electrical and mechanical substitution criteria for general-purpose applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Qualtek 854-02/001 and TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 2VR1 are active products with full regulatory compliance (CSA, UR, VDE approvals) and ROHS3 certification. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Voltage Requirements: The Qualtek part supports both 115V and 250VAC operation, while the 2VR1 is rated for 250VAC only. For 115VAC-only applications, the Qualtek 854-02/001 is the appropriate choice.
• Operating Temperature Range: The Qualtek part operates across -25°C to 85°C, providing broader temperature coverage than the 2VR1 (-10°C to 40°C). Applications requiring extended temperature performance should specify the Qualtek part.
• Inductance Characteristics: The Qualtek part provides 2.4mH inductance compared to 1.078mH for the 2VR1. Filter performance characteristics may differ based on application-specific EMI/EMC requirements.
• Inventory Availability: The 2VR1 has higher stock availability (2666 units) compared to the Qualtek part (823 units).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity Corcom 2VR1 replace the Qualtek 854-02/001 in all applications?

A: The 2VR1 is a functional substitute for applications operating at 250VAC within the -10°C to 40°C temperature range. Applications requiring 115VAC operation or extended temperature performance (-25°C to 85°C) must use the Qualtek 854-02/001.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that determine substitutability?

A: Current rating (2A), voltage class (250VAC minimum), frequency (50/60Hz), filter configuration (two-stage single-phase), and termination style (quick-connect) are the primary parameters. Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there differences in filtering performance between these parts?

A: The inductance values differ (2.4mH vs. 1.078mH), which may affect frequency response characteristics. Application-specific EMI/EMC filtering requirements should be evaluated against the inductance specifications.

Q: Do both parts have the same regulatory approvals?

A: Yes, both parts hold CSA, UR, and VDE approvals and are ROHS3 compliant, meeting equivalent regulatory requirements for general-purpose applications.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these parts?

A: The Qualtek 854-02/001 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 2VR1 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.
