LED Panel Indicator MPR3BWDW12.0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MPR3BWDW12.0 is an LED panel indicator manufactured by Bivar Inc., classified as an active product in the T-1 (3mm) LED category. This blue diffused lens indicator is designed for panel-mount applications with 12-inch wire leads. The part operates at 4V with a maximum current of 25mA and provides 10 millicandela output at a 35° viewing angle.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and regulatory compliance are maintained across the same product category. The availability of alternative part numbers ensures supply chain continuity and design flexibility for panel indicator applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MPR3BWDW12.0 are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence:

• Forward voltage: 4V
• Maximum current: 25mA
• Millicandela output: 10mcd
• Peak wavelength: 430nm (blue spectrum)

Mechanical Equivalence:

• Lens size: 3mm, T-1 form factor
• Lens style: Round with domed top
• Panel cutout shape: Round
• Panel cutout dimensions: 0.24" (6.10mm)
• Termination: Wire leads, 12-inch length (304.80mm)
• Lens transparency: Diffused

Regulatory & Compliance Equivalence:

• RoHS3 compliance
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)
• ECCN classification: EAR99

The substitute part MPC3BWDW12.0 maintains identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and regulatory compliance status, differing only in the series designation (MPC3 versus MPR3) while preserving all functional and physical characteristics required for direct substitution in panel-mount LED indicator applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MPR3BWDW12.0 and MPC3BWDW12.0 are active products manufactured by Bivar Inc. with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical differentiation.

The MPR3BWDW12.0 maintains current inventory of 1,045 pieces. The MPC3BWDW12.0 substitute provides higher inventory availability at 3,202 pieces, supporting applications requiring larger quantities or extended lead-time mitigation.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance requirements (4V, 25mA, 10mcd output) and mechanical specifications (3mm T-1 form factor, 0.24-inch panel cutout, 12-inch wire leads). Regulatory compliance is equivalent across both part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MPC3BWDW12.0 be used as a direct replacement for MPR3BWDW12.0?

A: Yes. The MPC3BWDW12.0 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical ratings (4V, 25mA), mechanical dimensions (3mm T-1 lens, 0.24-inch panel cutout, 12-inch wire leads), and regulatory compliance (ROHS3). No circuit modifications or panel redesign are required.

Q: What are the key parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by equivalence in: forward voltage (4V), maximum current (25mA), lens size and style (3mm T-1 round domed), panel cutout dimensions (0.24 inches), wire lead length (12 inches), color (blue diffused), millicandela output (10mcd), and regulatory compliance (ROHS3, MSL 1).

Q: Are there differences in performance between MPR3BWDW12.0 and MPC3BWDW12.0?

A: No performance differences exist. Both parts deliver identical optical output (10mcd at 430nm peak wavelength, 35° viewing angle), electrical characteristics, and mechanical compatibility. The series designation change (MPR3 to MPC3) reflects product line organization without affecting functional specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the 12-inch wire lead length?

A: The 12-inch (304.80mm) termination length is a fixed mechanical specification for both parts. This dimension determines panel-to-component distance and must be verified against application layout requirements. Substitution is valid only when wire lead length remains 12 inches.

Q: Are both parts suitable for panel-mount applications?

A: Yes. Both MPR3BWDW12.0 and MPC3BWDW12.0 are designed for panel mounting with round cutout dimensions of 0.24 inches (6.10mm). The diffused blue lens and domed top are standard for indicator applications requiring uniform light distribution across a 35° viewing angle.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited), indicating no moisture-related handling restrictions. ECCN classification is EAR99 for both part numbers.
