ECE-P2GA182HX Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ECE-P2GA182HX is a 1800 µF, 400 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components in the T-HA series. This radial, can-style snap-in capacitor with 5 leads is designed for general purpose applications requiring high capacitance and voltage ratings. The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing system maintenance, repairs, and component sourcing.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 383LX182M400B082VS from Cornell Dubilier Electronics is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete ECE-P2GA182HX. The substitute part maintains all critical electrical specifications: 1800 µF capacitance, 400 V voltage rating, ±20% tolerance, and identical operating temperature range. Both parts share the same package configuration (Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead) and mounting type (Through Hole), ensuring mechanical compatibility in existing designs.

The primary advantage of the 383LX182M400B082VS is its active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The substitute part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The maximum seated height difference of 0.078" (2.00mm) between the two parts is negligible for most applications and does not impact functional performance or board layout compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 383LX182M400B082VS directly replace the ECE-P2GA182HX in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (1800 µF), voltage rating (400 V), tolerance (±20%), package configuration (Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead), and mounting type (Through Hole). The 0.078" height difference does not affect compatibility.

Q: What is the reason for substitution?

A: The ECE-P2GA182HX is obsolete. The 383LX182M400B082VS is an active product from Cornell Dubilier Electronics, providing reliable long-term availability.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences?

A: No. Both parts are rated for 3000 Hrs @ 105°C and operate across the same temperature range (-25°C ~ 105°C). The ESR specification is not provided for the substitute part; however, all other electrical parameters are identical.

Q: What are the compliance certifications for the substitute part?

A: The 383LX182M400B082VS is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Are the snap-in lead configurations identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use the Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead configuration, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing PCB designs and mounting hardware.
