Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Capacitance: 2.2 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.138" (4.60 mm) (exact match required)
• Case Diameter: 0.315" (8.00 mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Type: Radial, Can (exact match required)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage Rating: 350 V or higher (substitutes rated at 400 V are acceptable)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C or higher (extended ranges are acceptable)
• Lifetime @ Temperature: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C or longer (extended lifetimes are acceptable)
• Height - Seated (Max): Variations within mechanical envelope constraints

All substitute parts listed maintain the mandatory compatibility parameters while offering equal or improved performance in voltage rating, temperature range, and operational lifetime.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement with Improved Performance: Select 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 or 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 (Rubycon, Active status). Both parts maintain identical mechanical dimensions to the original UVR2V2R2MPD, offer 400 V voltage rating, and provide 15000 hours lifetime at 105°C. Active product status ensures continued availability and supply chain stability.

For Extended Temperature Operation: Select 400LEX2.2MEFC8X11.5 (Rubycon, Active status) when operating temperatures may exceed 85°C. This part supports operation to 125°C with 5000 hours lifetime at that temperature, though height increases to 0.531" (14.60 mm).

For Equivalent Performance with Manufacturer Diversity: Select ESMG401ELL2R2MHB5D or ESMQ401ELL2R2MHB5D (Chemi-Con, Active status) to maintain electrical performance characteristics identical to the original part (2000 Hrs @ 85°C, -40°C to 85°C) while upgrading voltage rating to 400 V. These parts preserve the original mechanical envelope and ripple current specifications.

For Nichicon Product Line Continuation: Select ULD2G2R2MPD (Nichicon) as the manufacturer's direct upgrade path, offering extended lifetime (15000 Hrs @ 105°C) and expanded temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), though marked as "Not For New Designs."

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and maintain through-hole radial can package compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 400 V rated capacitor in place of the 350 V original part? A: Yes. A higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin and is electrically compatible. The 400 V substitutes are direct mechanical and electrical replacements for the 350 V UVR2V2R2MPD.

Q: What is the difference between 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 and 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5? A: Both parts are Rubycon LLE series capacitors with identical electrical specifications (2.2 µF, 400 V, 15000 Hrs @ 105°C) and mechanical dimensions. The designation difference reflects internal manufacturing variations but does not affect substitution compatibility.

Q: Does the height difference between 0.512" and 0.531" affect PCB layout? A: Height variations of 0.019" (0.50 mm) may require verification against PCB clearance constraints, particularly in space-constrained applications. Confirm available vertical clearance before selecting parts with increased height.

Q: Why is the UVR2V2R2MPD marked "Not For New Designs"? A: This designation indicates the part has been superseded by improved alternatives in the manufacturer's portfolio. Active-status substitutes offer superior performance characteristics and assured long-term availability.

Q: Are all listed substitutes ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All substitute parts listed carry ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Can I mix different manufacturers' parts in the same circuit? A: Yes. All listed substitutes maintain identical capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, and mechanical compatibility. Mixing manufacturers is acceptable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint, though procurement and inventory management may favor single-source selection.

Q: What is the significance of ripple current specifications? A: Ripple current capacity determines the maximum AC current the capacitor can safely handle at specified frequencies. The original part and Chemi-Con substitutes specify 38 mA @ 120 Hz; Rubycon parts specify 40 mA @ 120 Hz. Higher ripple current capability provides additional design margin in high-frequency applications.
