MF200-BCG24H LED Lamp T-1 3/4 Flange 24V Green Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MF200-BCG24H is an active production LED lamp manufactured by Visual Communications Company (VCC). This component is a T-1 3/4 form factor indicator lamp with midget flange base, designed for general purpose lighting applications requiring 24V forward voltage operation. The lamp emits green light at 565nm wavelength with 80 millicandela output rating.

Substitute parts become necessary when system voltage requirements differ from the primary 24V specification, or when inventory availability requires alternative voltage-rated variants within the same product family. All substitute parts maintain identical mechanical, optical, and compliance characteristics while varying only in forward voltage rating.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the MF200 series is determined by strict adherence to the following invariant parameters:

Parameters that must remain identical across all substitutes:

• Series designation (MF200)
• Size / Dimension (T-1 3/4)
• Base Type (Midget Flange)
• Color (Green)
• Wavelength (565nm)
• Millicandela Rating (80mcd)
• Configuration (Single)
• Applications (General Purpose Lighting)
• RoHS Status (ROHS3 Compliant)
• REACH Status (REACH Unaffected)

Parameter that varies to define substitution:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf) Typical: 24V, 12V, or 5V

The MF200-BCG24H can be substituted with MF200-BCG12H or MF200-BCG5H when the system operating voltage differs from 24V. Each variant maintains identical mechanical mounting, optical output characteristics, and regulatory compliance while accommodating different power supply voltages.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MF200-BCG24H Selection Criteria: Select this part for systems operating at 24V DC supply voltage. All three variants (24V, 12V, 5V) maintain active production status and full ROHS3 compliance with REACH unaffected designation, ensuring regulatory compliance across all voltage options.

MF200-BCG12H Selection Criteria: Select this part for systems operating at 12V DC supply voltage. This variant is functionally equivalent to MF200-BCG24H with identical mechanical, optical, and compliance characteristics.

MF200-BCG5H Selection Criteria: Select this part for systems operating at 5V DC supply voltage. This variant is functionally equivalent to MF200-BCG24H with identical mechanical, optical, and compliance characteristics.

All three parts are manufactured by VCC, carry active product status, and meet ROHS3 and REACH compliance requirements. Selection is determined solely by system voltage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MF200-BCG12H be used in place of MF200-BCG24H?

A: MF200-BCG12H can be used only if the system power supply voltage is 12V. The forward voltage rating must match the system supply voltage. Mechanical fit, optical output, and all other specifications are identical. Do not use in 24V systems.

Q: What determines compatibility between MF200 series variants?

A: Compatibility is determined by matching the forward voltage rating (Vf) to the system supply voltage. All MF200 variants with identical series designation, T-1 3/4 size, midget flange base, green color, 565nm wavelength, and 80mcd rating are mechanically and optically interchangeable when voltage requirements are met.

Q: Are all three voltage variants (5V, 12V, 24V) in active production?

A: Yes. MF200-BCG24H, MF200-BCG12H, and MF200-BCG5H all carry active product status from Visual Communications Company.

Q: Do all variants meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three variants are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Compliance status is identical across all voltage ratings.

Q: What is the packaging format for these parts?

A: All variants are supplied in bulk packaging format.

Q: Can I use MF200-BCG5H in a 24V system?

A: No. The forward voltage rating must match the system supply voltage. Using MF200-BCG5H in a 24V system will result in component failure or non-operation.
