LPX102M160H1P3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LPX102M160H1P3 is a 1000 µF, 160 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) in the LPX series. This radial, can-style snap-in capacitor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring through-hole mounting. The part is currently active in production with 838 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are required due to inventory constraints, application-specific lifetime requirements, or design optimization needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LPX102M160H1P3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Capacitance value: 1000 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 160 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• ESR @ 120 Hz: 199 mOhm (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package style: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.394" (10.00 mm) (exact match required)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 85°C (exact match required)

The substitute part SLPX102M160E3P3 meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Differences in physical dimensions (can diameter and height) and lifetime rating do not preclude substitution when mechanical envelope constraints are not limiting factors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (LPX102M160H1P3): The LPX102M160H1P3 is the specified part and remains the first choice when available. It is active in production, ROHS3 compliant, and REACH unaffected. Current inventory is 838 units.

Substitute Selection (SLPX102M160E3P3): The SLPX102M160E3P3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the LPX102M160H1P3 for all critical substitution parameters. Both parts are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics, are ROHS3 compliant, and REACH unaffected. The SLPX102M160E3P3 offers extended lifetime (3000 Hrs @ 85°C versus 1000 Hrs @ 85°C) and higher ripple current ratings. Current inventory is 974 units.

Dimensional Considerations: The SLPX102M160E3P3 has a smaller diameter (1.181" versus 1.378") but greater height (1.181" versus 0.984"). PCB layout and mechanical envelope constraints must be evaluated before substitution. Both parts maintain identical lead spacing (0.394" / 10.00 mm) and through-hole mounting compatibility.

Compliance Status: Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected requirements. No regulatory barriers exist to substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SLPX102M160E3P3 be used as a direct replacement for LPX102M160H1P3?

A: Yes, for electrical circuit function. Both parts have identical capacitance (1000 µF), voltage rating (160 V), tolerance (±20%), ESR (199 mOhm @ 120 Hz), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). Lead spacing is identical at 0.394" (10.00 mm). Physical dimensions differ; verify PCB layout constraints before substitution.

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

A: The primary differences are physical dimensions and lifetime rating. The LPX102M160H1P3 has a larger diameter (35.00 mm) and shorter height (25.00 mm). The SLPX102M160E3P3 has a smaller diameter (30.00 mm) and greater height (30.00 mm). The SLPX102M160E3P3 offers extended lifetime (3000 Hrs @ 85°C versus 1000 Hrs @ 85°C) and higher ripple current capacity.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both LPX102M160H1P3 and SLPX102M160E3P3 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: Does the extended lifetime of SLPX102M160E3P3 affect circuit performance?

A: No. Extended lifetime indicates longer operational durability under specified thermal conditions. It does not alter electrical performance or circuit behavior.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Lead spacing is identical, enabling through-hole mounting compatibility. However, different physical dimensions (diameter and height) may require PCB layout verification. Mechanical envelope constraints must be evaluated for each application.

Q: What is the significance of the different series designations (LPX versus SLPX)?

A: Series designation indicates product line classification within Cornell Dubilier Electronics' portfolio. Both series meet the specified electrical and mechanical requirements for substitution.
