CPCL10GFC Pressure Sensor - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CPCL10GFC is a vented gauge pressure sensor manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions. This component operates at 0.36PSI (2.49kPa) with a Wheatstone Bridge output of 0 mV ~ 20 mV at 12V supply. The sensor features temperature compensation and is designed for through-hole board mount applications with a barbed male tube connection (0.15" / 3.8mm).

The CPCL10GFC is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this sensor.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CPCL10GFC must satisfy the following critical parameters to ensure functional compatibility:

Core Compatibility Criteria:

• Operating pressure of 0.36PSI (2.49kPa)
• Vented gauge pressure type
• Wheatstone Bridge output configuration
• Output range of 0 mV ~ 20 mV at 12V supply
• Supply voltage range encompassing 12V operation
• 4-SIP Module package type
• Through-hole mounting capability
• PC Pin termination style
• Operating temperature range of -25°C ~ 85°C
• Temperature compensation feature

The substitute part 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI (Amphenol All Sensors Corporation) meets these core functional requirements. Variations in port size (0.18" vs. 0.15" tube), port style (barbless vs. barbed), accuracy specification (±1% vs. ±2%), maximum pressure rating (20PSI vs. 5PSI), and product status (active vs. obsolete) represent secondary differences that do not prevent functional substitution when mechanical integration is accommodated.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI from Amphenol All Sensors Corporation is a functional substitute for the obsolete CPCL10GFC. Selection of this alternative is supported by the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The CPCL10GFC is obsolete, making the active status of the 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI a significant advantage for ongoing supply chain management and long-term availability.

Regulatory Compliance: Both components are RoHS compliant. The substitute meets ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory standards. Both components carry ECCN EAR99 classification and fall under HTSUS code 9026.20.4000.

Functional Equivalence: Core electrical parameters—operating pressure, output type, output range, and temperature compensation—are identical. Both components operate within the same temperature range and utilize identical package and termination configurations.

Performance Characteristics: The substitute offers improved accuracy (±1% vs. ±2%) and higher maximum pressure rating (20PSI vs. 5PSI), representing enhanced performance margins without compromising the nominal operating point.

Integration Considerations: The port size difference (0.18" vs. 0.15" tube) and port style variation (barbless vs. barbed) require mechanical integration review. The supply voltage specification for the substitute (16V fixed) differs from the original range (3V ~ 16V); however, 12V operation is supported in both cases.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI directly replace the CPCL10GFC without any modifications?

A: Electrical and functional compatibility is confirmed. The 4-SIP module package, PC pin termination, Wheatstone Bridge output, and operating pressure specifications are identical. However, the port connection differs: the substitute uses a 0.18" (4.57mm) barbless tube connection versus the original 0.15" (3.8mm) barbed connection. Mechanical integration assessment is required to confirm tubing compatibility with existing pneumatic connections.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by: operating pressure (0.36PSI), pressure type (vented gauge), output type (Wheatstone Bridge), output range (0 mV ~ 20 mV at 12V), package type (4-SIP Module), mounting method (through hole), termination style (PC pin), and operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C). All these parameters must match between the original and substitute component.

Q: Does the improved accuracy of the substitute (±1% vs. ±2%) affect circuit design?

A: No. The improved accuracy of the substitute represents a performance enhancement. Existing signal conditioning circuits and calibration procedures designed for the original ±2% accuracy specification will function with the substitute. The tighter accuracy tolerance does not introduce incompatibility.

Q: Is the higher maximum pressure rating (20PSI vs. 5PSI) of the substitute a concern?

A: No. The higher maximum pressure rating of the substitute provides additional safety margin and overpressure protection. The nominal operating pressure remains 0.36PSI in both cases. The higher rating does not affect normal operation or introduce incompatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the supply voltage difference (3V ~ 16V vs. 16V)?

A: The original component supports a 3V to 16V supply range, while the substitute operates at a fixed 16V supply. If your system supplies 12V (the typical operating voltage for both components), both parts are compatible. If your system requires operation below 16V or uses variable supply voltages, the fixed 16V specification of the substitute must be verified against your power supply design.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The CPCL10GFC is RoHS compliant. The 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI meets ROHS3 compliance, which represents the current RoHS standard. Both components satisfy environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component use.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The 10 INCH-GF-CGRADE-MINI is supplied in tube packaging. The original CPCL10GFC packaging specification was not detailed in the provided data. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and handling processes.
