Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the UVR2C102MRD is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 1000 µF (exact match required)
• Rated voltage: 160 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Lifetime rating: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.984" Dia × 2.047" Height (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.492" (12.50 mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole, Radial, Can package (exact match required)
• Ripple current ratings: 1.9 A @ 120 Hz and 2.185 A @ 10 kHz (exact match required)

The UVK2C102MRD meets all substitution criteria as a parametric equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the UVR2C102MRD and UVK2C102MRD are obsolete products manufactured by Nichicon. The UVK2C102MRD is a direct parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, physical dimensions, and compliance certifications. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Selection between these two obsolete parts should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times, as all technical parameters are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UVK2C102MRD be used as a direct replacement for the UVR2C102MRD?

A: Yes. The UVK2C102MRD is a parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (1000 µF), voltage rating (160 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (2000 Hrs @ 85°C), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), physical dimensions (0.984" Dia × 2.047" Height), lead spacing (0.492"), and ripple current ratings (1.9 A @ 120 Hz, 2.185 A @ 10 kHz). Both are through-hole radial can packages manufactured by Nichicon.

Q: Are there any differences in compliance or certifications between these parts?

A: No. Both the UVR2C102MRD and UVK2C102MRD carry identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, EAR99 ECCN classification, and HTSUS code 8532.22.0040.

Q: What is the significance of the different series designations (UVR vs. UVK)?

A: The series designation indicates the internal product line within Nichicon's portfolio. Despite different series names, the UVK2C102MRD meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for substitution of the UVR2C102MRD.

Q: Are both parts still in production?

A: No. Both the UVR2C102MRD and UVK2C102MRD are obsolete products. Component selection should prioritize available inventory from authorized distributors.

Q: What parameters must remain identical for substitution?

A: Capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, lifetime rating, operating temperature range, polarization, physical dimensions, lead spacing, mounting type, and ripple current specifications must all match exactly for direct substitution in the same circuit application.
