GT-21001V Line Filter Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The GT-21001V is a single-phase EMC/EMI line filter manufactured by KEMET, rated for 250VAC at 10A with chassis mount configuration and threaded post (M4) termination. This component is designated as Last Time Buy, indicating discontinued production status. The GT-21001V series filters are designed for general-purpose applications requiring electromagnetic compatibility and electromagnetic interference suppression in single-phase power distribution systems.

Due to Last Time Buy status, identifying equivalent substitute parts with compatible electrical and mechanical specifications is necessary for ongoing procurement and system design continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the GT-21001V is based on the following critical parameters that must remain compatible:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Filter Type: Single Phase
• Configuration: Single Stage
• Voltage - Rated AC: 250V
• Current Rating: 10 A
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Allowable Variations:

• Termination Style: May differ (threaded post to terminal block)
• Voltage - Rated DC: Substitute may have higher DC rating
• Operating Temperature Range: Substitute may have extended range
• Approval Agencies: Substitute may have equivalent or additional certifications
• Product Status: Substitute should be Active or current production

The GTX-2100-Y03 meets all mandatory matching parameters while providing enhanced specifications in DC voltage rating and operating temperature range, with alternative terminal block termination suitable for chassis mount applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: GTX-2100-Y03

The GTX-2100-Y03 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the GT-21001V. Both components share identical electrical specifications for single-phase, single-stage filtration at 250VAC and 10A current rating, meeting the core functional requirements for EMC/EMI line filtering applications.

Compliance and Certification: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and hold equivalent regulatory approvals (TUV, UL). The GTX-2100-Y03 includes cUL certification in addition to standard UL approval, providing expanded North American regulatory coverage. The substitute is in Active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Specification Enhancements: The GTX-2100-Y03 provides a higher DC voltage rating (560V versus unspecified for GT-21001V) and an extended lower operating temperature limit (-25°C versus -20°C), offering improved performance margins for demanding applications.

Termination Consideration: The primary difference is termination style: the GT-21001V uses threaded post (M4) termination, while the GTX-2100-Y03 uses terminal block termination. Both are suitable for chassis mount applications. System integration must account for this mechanical interface change during component substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the GTX-2100-Y03 directly replace the GT-21001V in existing designs?

A: The GTX-2100-Y03 is electrically equivalent for 250VAC, 10A single-phase filtering applications. The termination style differs (terminal block versus threaded post M4), requiring mechanical interface modification during integration. Chassis mount configuration remains consistent.

Q: What is the significance of the higher 560V DC rating on the GTX-2100-Y03?

A: The 560V DC rating on the substitute provides additional voltage margin and application flexibility. This specification does not affect 250VAC operation but allows the component to function in higher DC voltage environments if required by future system modifications.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: The GTX-2100-Y03 extends the lower temperature limit to -25°C compared to the GT-21001V at -20°C. Both maintain the upper limit of 55°C. The substitute offers improved performance in cold environment applications.

Q: Why is the GT-21001V designated as Last Time Buy?

A: Last Time Buy status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production of the GT-21001V series. The GTX-2100-Y03 represents the current production equivalent, ensuring continued availability and support for new and replacement applications.

Q: Do both parts hold equivalent regulatory approvals?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and hold TUV and UL certifications. The GTX-2100-Y03 includes cUL certification, providing expanded Canadian regulatory recognition. All approvals are suitable for general-purpose industrial and commercial applications.

Q: What packaging format is used for both components?

A: Both the GT-21001V and GTX-2100-Y03 are supplied in box packaging for chassis mount line filter applications.
