MGSY28 LED Midget Groove Yellow 28V Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MGSY28 is an active LED lamp replacement component manufactured by APEM Inc., designed for midget groove base applications. This yellow LED operates at 28V forward voltage and delivers 630 millicandela output in a T-1 3/4 form factor. The component is ROHS3 compliant and carries unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), making it suitable for general industrial and commercial lighting applications. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling direct replacement in compatible fixtures.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MGSY28 are identified based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Base Type: Midget Groove (mechanical compatibility)
• Color: Yellow (optical specification)
• Size / Dimension: T-1 3/4 (form factor)
• Configuration: Single (electrical architecture)
• Millicandela Rating: 630mcd (luminous intensity)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (environmental rating)

The MGSY24 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute because it maintains identical mechanical, optical, and environmental specifications. The primary difference is the forward voltage rating (24V versus 28V), which represents a distinct electrical variant within the same product family. This voltage difference does not affect mechanical interchangeability but requires verification of circuit compatibility in the target application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MGSY28 and MGSY24 maintain active product status with identical RoHS3 and REACH compliance certifications. Selection between these parts depends on circuit voltage specification. The MGSY28 is specified for 28V applications, while the MGSY24 is specified for 24V applications. Both components share identical mechanical, optical, and environmental ratings, ensuring form-factor and base-type compatibility within their respective voltage classes. Component selection must align with the designed forward voltage of the target circuit to ensure proper LED operation and circuit protection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MGSY24 replace MGSY28 in any application? A: MGSY24 and MGSY28 are mechanically and optically identical but differ in forward voltage specification. Substitution is only valid when the target circuit is designed for 24V operation. Direct substitution in a 28V circuit will result in incorrect LED operation.

Q: What determines compatibility between these LED lamp replacements? A: Compatibility is determined by base type (Midget Groove), color (Yellow), form factor (T-1 3/4), luminous intensity (630mcd), and forward voltage rating. All parameters must align with the target fixture specification.

Q: Are both parts suitable for industrial applications? A: Both MGSY28 and MGSY24 are active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, making them suitable for general industrial and commercial lighting applications where environmental conditions do not exceed MSL 1 specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the Midget Groove base type? A: Midget Groove is a mechanical specification that defines the physical socket interface. Only components with identical base type can be mechanically interchanged in the same fixture.

Q: Does packaging affect substitution eligibility? A: Packaging (Bag for MGSY24 versus standard for MGSY28) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. It reflects storage and distribution format only.
