DP2-60E Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DP2-60E is a digital vacuum sensor manufactured by Panasonic Industrial Automation Sales, designed for industrial automation applications requiring vacuum pressure measurement. This component operates across a 12V to 24V supply range and delivers analog voltage output through PNP open collector configuration. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for system maintenance, redesign, and procurement planning.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The E8F2-AN0B from Omron Automation and Safety qualifies as a functional substitute for the DP2-60E based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Core Specifications:

• Pressure Type: Both measure vacuum
• Operating Pressure: Both rated at -14.65 PSI (-101 kPa)
• Output Type: Both provide PNP - Open Collector output
• Voltage Supply: Both operate on 12V ~ 24V
• Port Style: Both use threaded connections
• RoHS Compliance: Both are RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

Substitution Basis: The E8F2-AN0B maintains electrical compatibility through identical supply voltage range and output signal type. Both sensors measure vacuum pressure at the same operating point (-101 kPa), ensuring functional equivalence in pressure measurement applications. The threaded port configuration on both units supports direct mechanical integration in existing manifold systems.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The E8F2-AN0B is an active product from Omron Automation and Safety, providing supply chain continuity for applications currently using the obsolete DP2-60E. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, supporting regulatory requirements across industrial automation deployments.

The E8F2-AN0B operates within the same vacuum pressure range and supply voltage specifications as the DP2-60E, ensuring functional compatibility in existing control circuits. The active product status of the E8F2-AN0B provides long-term availability and technical support advantages over the obsolete DP2-60E.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E8F2-AN0B directly replace the DP2-60E in existing installations?

A: The E8F2-AN0B provides functional equivalence for vacuum pressure measurement at -101 kPa with identical 12V ~ 24V supply voltage and PNP open collector output. Port configuration differences (BSPP vs. BSPT threading) require mechanical adapter evaluation for direct manifold integration.

Q: What are the key differences between these two sensors?

A: The E8F2-AN0B specifies output range (1 V ~ 5 V) and accuracy (±3%), which are not provided for the DP2-60E. The E8F2-AN0B uses cable termination versus connector termination on the DP2-60E. Maximum pressure rating differs: DP2-60E at -490 kPa versus E8F2-AN0B at -400 kPa. Operating temperature ranges vary slightly: DP2-60E from -10°C to 50°C versus E8F2-AN0B from 0°C to 55°C.

Q: Are both sensors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the DP2-60E and E8F2-AN0B are RoHS Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What should be considered when selecting between these alternatives?

A: Selection should account for port thread type compatibility with existing manifold systems, termination style requirements (connector vs. cable), and operating temperature range needs. The E8F2-AN0B's active product status ensures ongoing availability and technical support.
