Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the ECE-P2GP182HX is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 1800 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 400 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime Rating: 3000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

The substitute part 382LX182M400B092V from Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 382LX182M400B092V from Cornell Dubilier Electronics is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete ECE-P2GP182HX. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (1800 µF, 400 V, ±20% tolerance) and mechanical compatibility (Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead, Through Hole mounting).

The CDE substitute offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The height difference (94.00mm vs. 80.00mm) must be verified against PCB layout constraints before implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 382LX182M400B092V be used as a direct replacement for the ECE-P2GP182HX?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical capacitance (1800 µF), voltage rating (400 V), tolerance (±20%), package type (Radial, Can - Snap-In - 5 Lead), and operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C). Physical dimensions are compatible with the exception of seated height, which must be verified against PCB clearance.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The ECE-P2GP182HX is obsolete, while the 382LX182M400B092V is active. The CDE part has a maximum seated height of 94.00mm compared to 80.00mm for the Panasonic part. PCB layout must accommodate this height difference.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 382LX182M400B092V is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Compliance status for the ECE-P2GP182HX is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Do the ripple current ratings differ?

A: Ripple current specifications are provided at different frequency points. At 120 Hz, the CDE part rates 7.35 A versus 7.09 A for the Panasonic part. Both parts exceed the original specification, supporting equivalent thermal performance.

Q: What mounting considerations apply to this substitution?

A: Both parts use Through Hole mounting with identical lead spacing and snap-in mechanical design. Verify PCB hole pattern and clearance for the increased height of the substitute part before board layout finalization.
