LED Fluorescent Tube Replacement R-FAC20BN1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ROHM Semiconductor R-FAC20BN1 is an LED fluorescent tube replacement designed for retrofit lighting applications. This component delivers 890 lumens at 11 watts with a cool white color temperature (5000K) and operates on 100VAC input. The product features a G13 base type and standard linear fluorescent tube dimensions of 1.413" diameter by 23.380" length (35.90mm x 594.00mm).

The R-FAC20BN1 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain continuity in retrofit lighting installations where this specific model is no longer available from the original manufacturer.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the R-FAC20BN1 LED fluorescent tube is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Physical Dimensions: 1.413" diameter x 23.380" length (35.90mm x 594.00mm) — mechanical fit in existing fixtures
• Base Type: G13 — socket compatibility
• Voltage Rating: 100VAC — electrical compatibility with existing ballast or driver circuits
• Color Temperature: 5000K (White, Cool) — visual consistency in retrofit applications
• Luminous Output: 890 lumens — brightness performance equivalence
• Power Consumption: 11 watts — energy efficiency matching
• Configuration: Fluorescent Tube — form factor and application category

Only components matching all of these parameters across the specified tolerances qualify as true parametric equivalents for direct substitution in retrofit lighting installations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The R-FAC20BN1 is an obsolete product. When sourcing replacement components for retrofit lighting applications, prioritize parts that maintain identical electrical specifications (100VAC input), mechanical dimensions (1.413" x 23.380"), and base type (G13) to ensure direct compatibility with existing fixture installations.

Both the main part and its parametric equivalent carry REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, indicating compliance with applicable regulatory frameworks for electronic components in lighting applications. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) indicates no special handling requirements during storage or installation.

Selection should be based strictly on the matching of all specified parameters. No deviations from the dimensional, electrical, or optical specifications listed above are permissible for direct substitution in retrofit lighting installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes a part a true equivalent to the R-FAC20BN1?

A: A true parametric equivalent must match all critical specifications: 1.413" diameter x 23.380" length, G13 base type, 100VAC operation, 5000K color temperature, 890 lumens output, and 11-watt power consumption. Any deviation from these parameters disqualifies a component from direct substitution.

Q: Can I use a different base type with an adapter?

A: No. The G13 base type is integral to mechanical and electrical compatibility with retrofit lighting fixtures. Adapters introduce additional failure points and are not acceptable for engineering-grade substitution.

Q: Does the obsolete status affect compatibility?

A: Obsolete status indicates the product is no longer manufactured. However, it does not affect the technical compatibility of equivalent parts that meet all specified parameters. Equivalent parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Q: What is the significance of the 5000K color temperature specification?

A: The 5000K specification defines the visual appearance as cool white light. This parameter must be matched exactly in retrofit applications to maintain consistent lighting characteristics across installations. Deviations in color temperature are not acceptable for direct substitution.

Q: Are there any special handling requirements for this component?

A: The Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) classification indicates no special moisture protection or storage conditions are required. Standard handling practices for electronic components are sufficient.

Q: What do the REACH and ECCN classifications mean for component selection?

A: REACH Unaffected status confirms the component is not subject to REACH regulatory restrictions. EAR99 ECCN classification indicates the component is not subject to U.S. export control restrictions. These certifications confirm regulatory compliance for standard commercial applications.
