PL-624-R-BX Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PL-624-R-BX is a pilot light LED indicator manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for 24V DC applications with a red lamp color and round domed lens. This component features a 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect termination and a 0.55" (13.97mm) round panel cutout. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for system maintenance, repair, and redesign applications where continued operation is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the PL-624-R-BX is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Voltage Rating: 24V DC operation
• Lamp Color: Red indicator function
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: 0.55" (13.97mm) round opening for mechanical fit
• Lens Style: Round with domed top for visual consistency
• Termination Style: Quick connect interface for electrical connection
• Type: LED technology

The substitute part Q14P1CXXHR24E from APEM Inc. satisfies all these core requirements while maintaining mechanical and electrical compatibility with the original PL-624-R-BX installation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Q14P1CXXHR24E is the designated manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete PL-624-R-BX. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The Q14P1CXXHR24E maintains active production status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete PL-624-R-BX.

Compliance & Certifications: The Q14P1CXXHR24E carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components in industrial and commercial applications.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both components share identical panel cutout dimensions (0.55" / 13.97mm) and lens style (round with domed top), enabling direct mechanical substitution in existing panel installations.

Electrical Compatibility: Both components operate at 24V DC with identical voltage ratings and DC ratings classification, ensuring functional equivalence in circuit applications.

Termination Interface: Both components utilize quick connect termination, though connector pin sizes differ (0.250" vs. 0.110"). Connector adaptation may be required depending on existing wiring harness specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Q14P1CXXHR24E directly replace the PL-624-R-BX without panel modification?

A: Yes, the Q14P1CXXHR24E fits the same 0.55" (13.97mm) round panel cutout as the PL-624-R-BX. No panel drilling or enlargement is required for mechanical installation.

Q: What is the difference in quick connect termination between these two parts?

A: The PL-624-R-BX uses 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect terminals, while the Q14P1CXXHR24E uses 0.110" (2.8mm) quick connect terminals. Existing wiring harnesses may require connector replacement or adapter use to achieve proper electrical connection.

Q: Are both parts suitable for 24V DC applications?

A: Yes, both the PL-624-R-BX and Q14P1CXXHR24E are rated for 24V DC operation and are classified under DC ratings.

Q: What is the operational current requirement for the substitute part?

A: The Q14P1CXXHR24E operates at 20mA. The original PL-624-R-BX current specification was not provided in available documentation.

Q: Does the Q14P1CXXHR24E offer improved environmental protection?

A: Yes, the Q14P1CXXHR24E carries an IP67 ingress protection rating, providing enhanced sealing against dust and moisture compared to the PL-624-R-BX, for which ingress protection specifications were not documented.

Q: Are there regulatory compliance differences between the original and substitute?

A: The Q14P1CXXHR24E is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental regulations. Compliance status for the obsolete PL-624-R-BX was not specified in available documentation.
