Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the R-FAC40BN1 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Base Type: G13 connector is mandatory for mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Voltage Rating: 100VAC operation is required for direct retrofit applications
• Luminous Output: 1980 lumens establishes the brightness performance baseline
• Power Consumption: 22W defines the electrical load characteristics
• Color Temperature: 5000K (cool white) specifies the light spectrum for application matching
• Physical Dimensions: 1.413" diameter × 47.717" length ensures fixture compatibility
• Configuration: Fluorescent tube form factor is essential for retrofit applications

Equivalent parts must match all seven parameters without deviation. The R-FAC40BN1 itself represents the only parametric equivalent currently identified from the provided data set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The R-FAC40BN1 is classified as obsolete. For retrofit lighting applications requiring a 22W LED fluorescent tube with G13 base, 100VAC operation, and 5000K color temperature, the parametric equivalent R-FAC40BN1 maintains full compliance with REACH regulations and carries an MSL rating of 1, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Selection of equivalent parts should prioritize exact parameter matching across all electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure fixture compatibility and performance consistency in retrofit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the R-FAC40BN1 be used as a direct replacement in existing G13 fixtures?

A: Yes, the R-FAC40BN1 is designed for retrofit applications and operates at 100VAC with a G13 base, making it compatible with standard G13 fixture configurations. Physical dimensions (1.413" diameter × 47.717" length) must be verified against the fixture specifications.

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

A: The 5000K specification indicates cool white light output. This parameter must match the application requirement; fixtures designed for different color temperatures (warm white, daylight, etc.) may not provide the intended lighting performance.

Q: Why is the G13 base type critical for substitution?

A: The G13 base is the mechanical and electrical connector interface between the tube and the fixture. Mismatched base types prevent proper installation and electrical connection, making base type a non-negotiable substitution criterion.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for component handling?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life and requires no special moisture control during storage or handling. This simplifies inventory management and reduces storage constraints.

Q: Is the R-FAC40BN1 still available for procurement?

A: The R-FAC40BN1 is listed as obsolete. Availability should be confirmed with authorized distributors. The parametric equivalent R-FAC40BN1 shares identical specifications and may be available through component suppliers.
