CPCL10DFC Pressure Sensor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CPCL10DFC is a differential pressure sensor manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, designed for board mount applications requiring low-pressure measurement with analog output. This component operates on a Wheatstone Bridge output configuration, delivering 0 mV to 20 mV signals at 12V supply voltage.

The CPCL10DFC is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality, ensure supply chain continuity, and support legacy equipment maintenance where original components are no longer available from primary sources.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CPCL10DFC is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Pressure Measurement Capability: Operating pressure of 0.36 PSI (2.49 kPa) differential must be maintained. Maximum pressure rating of 5 PSI (34.47 kPa) establishes the upper limit for safe operation.

Output Signal Characteristics: Wheatstone Bridge output configuration with 0 mV to 20 mV output range at 12V supply voltage defines the signal interface. Substitute parts must deliver equivalent analog output within this specification.

Electrical Interface: Supply voltage range of 3V to 16V establishes compatibility with existing power delivery systems. Output impedance and signal conditioning must remain consistent with the original design.

Physical Integration: Through-hole mounting with 4-SIP module package and PC pin termination style ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility with printed circuit board layouts designed for the CPCL10DFC.

Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range of -25°C to 85°C and RoHS compliance status must be maintained for regulatory and operational continuity.

Port Configuration: Male barbed tube ports at 0.16" (4.06 mm) diameter establish the pneumatic interface. Substitute parts with equivalent port specifications ensure direct mechanical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI manufactured by Amphenol All Sensors Corporation is listed as an equivalent substitute for the obsolete CPCL10DFC. Both components share identical pressure measurement specifications, output signal characteristics, and environmental operating parameters.

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts deliver Wheatstone Bridge output in the 0 mV to 20 mV range at 12V. The substitute operates at a fixed 16V supply voltage, which falls within the original CPCL10DFC supply range of 3V to 16V. Existing power delivery circuits designed for the CPCL10DFC will support the substitute component.

Mechanical Integration: Both components use identical 4-SIP module packaging with PC pin termination for through-hole mounting. PCB layouts designed for the CPCL10DFC will accommodate the substitute without modification to mounting footprints or electrical traces.

Regulatory Compliance: Both the CPCL10DFC and 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). Substitution maintains compliance with environmental and regulatory requirements.

Pneumatic Interface Considerations: The substitute part features a 0.18" (4.57 mm) male barbless tube port, compared to the original 0.16" (4.06 mm) male barbed port. This represents a 0.02" (0.51 mm) diameter increase and a change in port style from barbed to barbless. Pneumatic tubing connections must be evaluated for compatibility with the larger port diameter and different retention mechanism.

Product Status: The CPCL10DFC is obsolete. The 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI is active production status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI be directly installed in place of the CPCL10DFC without circuit modifications?

A: Yes, for electrical and mounting aspects. Both components share identical Wheatstone Bridge output, 0 mV to 20 mV signal range, 4-SIP module packaging, and PC pin termination. The substitute operates at 16V, which is within the original supply voltage range of 3V to 16V. No circuit modifications are required for electrical integration.

Q: What is the impact of the port size difference between the two sensors?

A: The CPCL10DFC uses 0.16" (4.06 mm) male barbed ports, while the 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI uses 0.18" (4.57 mm) male barbless ports. This 0.02" (0.51 mm) diameter increase requires evaluation of existing pneumatic tubing connections. Tubing sized for 0.16" ports may not provide adequate seal or retention on 0.18" barbless ports. Pneumatic interface compatibility must be verified before substitution.

Q: Does the barbless port style affect system performance?

A: Port style differences (barbed versus barbless) affect the mechanical retention method for pneumatic tubing. Barbed ports use mechanical interference for retention, while barbless ports rely on compression fittings or other retention mechanisms. System design must accommodate the different port style to ensure reliable pneumatic connections.

Q: Is the improved accuracy of the substitute part (±1% versus ±2%) a concern for system compatibility?

A: No. The substitute part offers improved accuracy, which is a performance enhancement. Systems designed to accept ±2% accuracy will operate correctly with a component providing ±1% accuracy. This represents a beneficial change in measurement precision.

Q: Are there any supply voltage considerations when substituting these parts?

A: The CPCL10DFC accepts supply voltages from 3V to 16V. The 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI operates at a fixed 16V. If the original system supplies voltage below 16V, the substitute will not function. Verify that the power delivery circuit provides 16V before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The CPCL10DFC is obsolete, meaning Honeywell no longer manufactures or supports this component. The 10 INCH-D-CGRADE-MINI is active production status, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and supply chain reliability for future procurement and system maintenance.
