Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the B43305F2188M60 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 1800 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 250 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package type: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 10.00 mm (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 35.00 mm diameter × 47.00 mm height maximum (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime specification: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

The LLG2E182MELC45 from Nichicon meets all critical substitution criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent.
