RAC03-24SA Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

Manufacturer Part Number: RAC03-24SA
Manufacturer: Recom Power
Category: AC/DC Enclosed Power Converters

The RAC03-24SA is an enclosed AC/DC converter designed for single output (24V, 125mA, 3W) from a universal AC input (90–264VAC). This part, belonging to the POWERLINE RAC03-A (3W) Series, is currently listed as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, it is necessary to identify alternate models with comparable electrical and mechanical parameters to ensure ongoing design support or maintenance requirements where the RAC03-24SA was originally specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are grouped strictly according to matching electrical output, AC input range, power rating, mounting type, RoHS compliance, moisture sensitivity level (MSL), and general enclosure type. Parts are considered equivalents only if these parameters are identical or within the specified operating tolerances found in this product category. Comparison is limited to provided data fields.

Key allowed substitution parameters:

• Voltage and current ratings (Input and Output)
• Power rating
• Number of outputs
• Mounting type and package/case format
• Application and compliance status

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RAC03-24SA and RAC03-24SC are obsolete, but each is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, with unlimited MSL. Electrical characteristics match precisely (input voltage, output voltage, output current, power rating), and both are suitable for ITE (Commercial) applications. Package/Case and operating temperature range differ and must be accounted for relative to mechanical and thermal design constraints. RAC03-24SC provides additional regulatory certifications based on the provided standard numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What electrical parameters must be matched for these AC/DC converter substitutes?
A1: Input voltage range, output voltage, maximum output current, and total output power must be identical for direct substitution.

Q2: Are the mounting methods compatible between RAC03-24SA and RAC03-24SC?
A2: Both use through-hole mounting, but package/case format differs (4-SIP Module vs. 16-DIP Module, 5 Leads).

Q3: Are there differences in operating temperature between the RAC03-24SA and RAC03-24SC?
A3: RAC03-24SA operates from -40°C to 85°C (with derating); RAC03-24SC operates from -25°C to 85°C (with derating).

Q4: What compliance certifications are provided for RAC03-24SC?
A4: RAC03-24SC includes CE, EN, UL approval agency marks and meets standard numbers 60335-1 and 60950-1.

Q5: Is it necessary to account for package size when selecting substitutes?
A5: Yes, physical size and pin configuration differ and must be compatible with the existing board layout.

Q6: Are RAC03-24SA and RAC03-24SC equivalent for ITE (Commercial) applications?
A6: Both are designated for ITE (Commercial) use, matching the applications parameter.
