Engineering Selection Recommendations

BXRC-27H2000-D-73 as Primary Substitute:

The BXRC-27H2000-D-73 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete BXRC-27H2000-C-03. Selection is based on the following engineering factors:

  1. Dimensional Compatibility: Identical physical footprint (36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height) and light emitting surface (13.20mm diameter) ensure direct mechanical fit in existing fixtures and assemblies.

  2. Optical Compatibility: Matching color temperature (2700K), CRI (97), viewing angle (120°), and flat lens type preserve lighting performance characteristics and color consistency in decorative applications.

  3. Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage (30.9V) and maximum current (1.0A) fall within acceptable operating ranges for driver circuits designed for the original part. The substitute operates at lower forward voltage, reducing power dissipation.

  4. Product Status: The substitute is Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the Obsolete status of the original part.

  5. Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status. The substitute adds ROHS3 Compliance certification, meeting current environmental standards.

  6. Performance Enhancement: The substitute delivers 38% higher luminous flux (1674 lm vs. 1210 lm) and 46% higher efficiency (108 lm/W vs. 74 lm/W), providing improved lighting output without circuit redesign.

  7. Packaging: The substitute is supplied in Tray packaging with connector integration, supporting automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BXRC-27H2000-D-73 be used as a direct replacement for BXRC-27H2000-C-03?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical physical dimensions (36.20mm diameter, 1.90mm height), color temperature (2700K), CRI (97), and viewing angle (120°). Electrical parameters (forward voltage 30.9V vs. 32.5V, maximum current 1.0A vs. 1.05A) are compatible with standard driver circuits. Mechanical fit and optical performance are preserved.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The substitute (BXRC-27H2000-D-73) is from the Gen 7 Décor Series™ versus the Ultra Vero® 13 series of the original. The substitute delivers higher luminous flux (1674 lm vs. 1210 lm at 500mA) and efficiency (108 lm/W vs. 74 lm/W). The substitute is Active product status versus Obsolete. The substitute includes connector integration and ROHS3 compliance certification.

Q: Are there electrical circuit modifications required?

A: No circuit modifications are required. The substitute operates at 30.9V typical forward voltage compared to 32.5V for the original, a 1.6V difference within normal driver tolerance. Maximum current specification (1.0A vs. 1.05A) is compatible with existing power supply designs.

Q: What is the impact of higher luminous flux in the substitute?

A: The substitute produces 38% more light output (1674 lm vs. 1210 lm) at identical test current (500mA). In fixed-current driver applications, this results in increased brightness. In constant-brightness applications with current-limiting drivers, the substitute may operate at lower current, reducing power consumption and heat generation.

Q: Are packaging differences significant?

A: The original part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in Tray packaging with connector integration. Connector presence simplifies assembly in automated processes but does not affect compatibility with existing solder-based interconnections if connectors are not utilized.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 compliance on the substitute?

A: ROHS3 Compliance indicates the substitute meets current European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. This certification supports compliance requirements for products sold in regulated markets and reflects current manufacturing standards.

Q: Can the substitute be used in existing fixture designs without modification?

A: Yes. Identical physical dimensions, color temperature, CRI, and viewing angle ensure the substitute functions in existing decorative lighting fixtures without optical or mechanical redesign. Electrical compatibility is maintained across standard driver circuits.

Q: What is the test temperature difference between the parts?

A: The original part specifies luminous flux at 25°C test temperature. The substitute specifies luminous flux at 85°C test temperature. The higher test temperature for the substitute reflects real-world operating conditions and demonstrates performance stability across the thermal operating range.
