UPT2P271MHD6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UPT2P271MHD6 is a 270 µF, 220 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package manufactured by Nichicon. This component is rated for 5000 hours at 105°C and is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and ripple current handling. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or application-specific mechanical considerations necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining electrical performance specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPT2P271MHD6 is determined by strict equivalence in the following electrical parameters:

• Capacitance: 270 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 220 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Lifetime: 5000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Ripple Current Specifications: 880 mA @ 120 Hz and 1.408 A @ 10 kHz (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Type: Radial, Can (exact match required)

The substitute part UPT2P271MHD meets all electrical equivalence criteria. Mechanical variations in physical dimensions (can diameter and height) are permissible when PCB layout and enclosure constraints allow accommodation of the alternate form factor.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both UPT2P271MHD6 and UPT2P271MHD are active production parts from Nichicon with identical electrical specifications and full regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH unaffected). Selection between these parts is based on mechanical fit requirements:

• UPT2P271MHD6 is specified when PCB layout and enclosure design accommodate a 18.00 mm diameter can with 37.00 mm seated height.
• UPT2P271MHD is specified when space constraints require a smaller diameter (16.00 mm) can, accepting the increased seated height (41.50 mm).

Both parts maintain identical lead spacing (7.50 mm) and through-hole mounting compatibility. Inventory availability and lead time considerations may also influence selection between these electrically equivalent alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are UPT2P271MHD6 and UPT2P271MHD electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical capacitance (270 µF), voltage rating (220 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (5000 Hrs @ 105°C), operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 105°C), and ripple current specifications (880 mA @ 120 Hz, 1.408 A @ 10 kHz).

Q: What are the mechanical differences between these parts?

A: The UPT2P271MHD6 has a can diameter of 18.00 mm and seated height of 37.00 mm. The UPT2P271MHD has a can diameter of 16.00 mm and seated height of 41.50 mm. Lead spacing remains constant at 7.50 mm for both parts.

Q: Can I use UPT2P271MHD in place of UPT2P271MHD6 on an existing PCB?

A: Substitution is possible only if the PCB layout and enclosure design accommodate the smaller diameter (16.00 mm) and taller height (41.50 mm) of the UPT2P271MHD. Lead hole spacing is identical, so through-hole mounting compatibility is maintained.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both UPT2P271MHD6 and UPT2P271MHD are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What applications are these capacitors suitable for?

A: Both parts are rated for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and ripple current handling at 220 V with extended thermal life at 105°C.
