MPR6-3YD110V

Part Overview

The MPR6-3YD110V is a panel-mounted indicator light manufactured by Bivar Inc., featuring a yellow diffused lens with a 45° viewing angle and 110V operation. This product is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components necessary for continued system support and replacement applications. The MPR8-3YD110V serves as an active alternative that maintains core functional compatibility while offering updated design features.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MPR6-3YD110V requires compatibility across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Voltage rating must remain 110V to ensure direct circuit compatibility without modification.

Optical Parameters: Lamp color (yellow), wavelength peak (590nm), and lens transparency (diffused) must be maintained to preserve indicator function and visual consistency within the application.

Mechanical Parameters: Panel cutout shape (round) determines mechanical fit. However, panel cutout dimensions may vary between the original and substitute parts, potentially requiring panel modification or adapter consideration.

Termination Parameters: The original part uses solder lug termination. Substitute parts may employ alternative termination methods (such as quick connect), which impacts board-level integration and requires circuit rework consideration.

The MPR8-3YD110V maintains electrical and optical compatibility while introducing a different panel cutout diameter (0.31" vs. 0.23") and alternative termination style (quick connect vs. solder lug).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MPR8-3YD110V qualifies as a substitute based on matching voltage, lamp color, wavelength, and ingress protection specifications. The substitute part maintains active product status from Bivar Inc., ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete MPR6-3YD110V.

Implementation of the MPR8-3YD110V requires assessment of two mechanical considerations: the panel cutout diameter increases from 0.23" to 0.31", necessitating panel enlargement or adapter modification; the termination style transitions from solder lug to quick connect, requiring circuit board redesign or connector adaptation.

The millicandela rating differs between parts (40mcd for the original, 20mcd for the substitute), resulting in reduced luminous intensity. Applications with brightness-critical requirements must evaluate whether this reduction affects functional performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can the MPR8-3YD110V directly replace the MPR6-3YD110V without modification? Direct replacement without modification is not possible. The panel cutout diameter differs (0.31" vs. 0.23"), and termination style changes from solder lug to quick connect. Both mechanical and electrical integration modifications are necessary.

What are the critical electrical parameters for substitution? The voltage rating must match at 110V. The lamp color and wavelength peak (590nm) must remain identical to preserve indicator function and visual consistency.

How does the difference in millicandela rating affect application suitability? The MPR8-3YD110V provides 20mcd output compared to 40mcd for the MPR6-3YD110V, representing a 50% reduction in brightness. Applications requiring brightness-dependent detection or visibility under high ambient light conditions must evaluate this parameter change.

What panel modifications are required for physical installation? The panel cutout diameter must be enlarged from 0.23" (5.84mm) to 0.31" (7.87mm) to accommodate the substitute part. Existing panel holes require modification or adapter mounting solutions.

How does the quick connect termination differ from solder lug termination? The original part uses solder lug termination for direct board-level soldering. The substitute employs quick connect terminals (0.110" pitch), eliminating soldering but requiring compatible connector hardware and circuit redesign.

Is the MPR8-3YD110V RoHS compliant? The MPR8-3YD110V carries ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements. The original MPR6-3YD110V specification does not list RoHS status.
