PVC10282 Film Capacitor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVC10282 is an 8200 pF polyester film capacitor rated for 1000V DC operation with ±10% tolerance, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. The radial through-hole configuration and general-purpose application profile make this capacitor suitable for replacement with modern equivalents meeting the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute identification for the PVC10282 is based on the following electrical and mechanical criteria:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Capacitance value of 8200 pF (exact match required)
• DC voltage rating of 1000V or higher
• Tolerance specification of ±10% or tighter
• Through-hole radial mounting configuration
• Lead spacing compatible with 0.689" (17.50mm) PCB hole patterns
• RoHS3 compliance for regulatory alignment

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

• Operating temperature range encompassing -55°C to 125°C
• Dielectric material suitable for general-purpose applications
• PC pin termination for standard PCB assembly

The substitute part B32671L0822J000 meets all primary matching criteria while offering enhanced specifications in certain parameters, enabling direct functional replacement in the PVC10282 application space.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Substitution Feasibility:

The B32671L0822J000 qualifies as a functional equivalent for the PVC10282 based on matching capacitance (8200 pF), DC voltage rating (1000V), and through-hole radial mounting configuration. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability compared to the obsolete PVC10282.

Key Considerations for Implementation:

1. Lead Spacing Difference: The substitute part features 0.394" (10.00mm) lead spacing versus the original 0.689" (17.50mm). PCB layout modification is required to accommodate this dimensional change. Verify hole pattern compatibility before design finalization.

2. Dielectric Material Change: The substitute uses polypropylene (PP) metallized dielectric instead of polyester. Both materials are suitable for general-purpose applications. The polypropylene variant offers superior performance in high-frequency and switching applications, providing enhanced capability for the same footprint.

3. Temperature Range: The substitute operates to 110°C maximum versus 125°C for the original. Applications requiring operation above 110°C require confirmation that the substitute meets thermal requirements.

4. Tolerance Improvement: The substitute provides ±5% tolerance compared to ±10% for the original, offering tighter capacitance control without additional cost impact.

5. Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B32671L0822J000 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the PVC10282?

A: Direct drop-in replacement is not possible due to different lead spacing (0.394" versus 0.689"). PCB layout modification is required. The substitute is electrically and functionally equivalent but requires physical design accommodation.

Q: What is the impact of changing from polyester to polypropylene dielectric?

A: Polypropylene dielectric offers superior performance in high-frequency and switching applications compared to polyester. For general-purpose DC applications, both materials perform equivalently. The substitute's metallized construction provides additional benefits in pulse and high dV/dT environments.

Q: Does the tighter ±5% tolerance of the substitute create any compatibility issues?

A: No. Tighter tolerance is a performance enhancement. Any circuit designed to accept ±10% tolerance will function correctly with ±5% tolerance components. This represents an improvement in capacitance stability.

Q: Is the reduced maximum operating temperature (110°C versus 125°C) a limitation?

A: This depends on application requirements. For circuits operating below 110°C, no limitation exists. Applications requiring sustained operation above 110°C must verify that the substitute meets thermal specifications or select alternative components.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the PVC10282 and B32671L0822J000 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Q: What is the physical size difference between these parts?

A: The PVC10282 measures 0.480" diameter by 0.902" length. The B32671L0822J000 measures 0.512" length by 0.236" width with 0.472" seated height. The substitute is more compact, allowing for improved PCB space utilization in redesigned layouts.

Q: Can I use the substitute in high-frequency or switching applications?

A: Yes. The B32671L0822J000 is specifically rated for high-frequency, switching, high-pulse, and high dV/dT applications. The original PVC10282 is designated for general-purpose use. The substitute provides enhanced capability for demanding electrical environments.
