Equivalent & Substitute Parts for UVZ2C220MPH

Part Overview

The Nichicon UVZ2C220MPH is a 22 µF, 160 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package with through-hole mounting. This part operates across -40°C to 105°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C and is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, equivalent and substitute parts from active manufacturers are necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications requiring 22 µF capacitance at 160 V or higher voltage ratings with compatible mechanical dimensions and electrical performance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (160 V Rating):

UVZ2C220MPD1AA is the primary parametric equivalent, offering identical electrical specifications to the obsolete UVZ2C220MPH while maintaining active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part preserves the original 2000-hour lifetime at 105°C and 160 V rating with matching mechanical dimensions.

160LLE22MEFC10X12.5 (Rubycon) and EKXF161ELL220MJC5S (Chemi-Con) provide direct electrical equivalence at 160 V with extended lifetime ratings of 15000 hours at 105°C. Both are ROHS3 compliant and active products. Height dimensions are reduced (0.571" and 0.551" respectively), which may provide PCB layout advantages in space-constrained applications.

SEK220M160ST (Cornell Dubilier Electronics) maintains 160 V rating and 2000-hour lifetime with ROHS3 compliance and active status. Height is 0.630", intermediate between the original and the extended-lifetime alternatives.

For Voltage Upgrade Applications:

UCY2D220MPD (Nichicon, 200 V) and UCY2E220MPD (Nichicon, 250 V) provide voltage margin improvements with extended 12000-hour lifetime at 105°C. Both are ROHS3 compliant and active products. Mechanical dimensions remain compatible with the original part.

200PX22MCC10X16 (Rubycon, 200 V) and 250PX22MEFC10X16 (Rubycon, 250 V) offer voltage upgrades with 2000-hour lifetime matching the original specification. Both are ROHS3 compliant and active products. Height is 0.709", slightly taller than the original.

B43858C2226M000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics, 200 V) provides 5000-hour lifetime at 105°C with ROHS3 compliance and active status. Height is 0.669", closely matching the original dimension.

B43866C1226M (EPCOS - TDK Electronics, 160 V) maintains the original voltage rating with extended operating temperature range to 125°C and 3000-hour lifetime at 125°C. ROHS3 compliant and active product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a higher voltage-rated capacitor as a substitute for the UVZ2C220MPH?

A: Yes. Higher voltage ratings (200 V or 250 V) are acceptable substitutes provided all other parameters remain compatible: 22 µF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, identical lead spacing (5.00 mm), can diameter (10.00 mm), through-hole mounting, and radial package. Higher voltage ratings provide additional safety margin in the circuit.

Q: What is the difference between the parametric equivalent UVZ2C220MPD1AA and the original UVZ2C220MPH?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical: 22 µF, 160 V, ±20% tolerance, 2000-hour lifetime at 105°C, and matching dimensions. The primary difference is product status: UVZ2C220MPD1AA is active with ROHS3 compliance, while UVZ2C220MPH is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant.

Q: Are there height restrictions I should consider when selecting a substitute?

A: The original UVZ2C220MPH has a maximum seated height of 0.689" (17.50 mm). Substitute parts with reduced heights (160LLE22MEFC10X12.5 at 0.571", EKXF161ELL220MJC5S at 0.551", SEK220M160ST at 0.630") will fit in the same PCB footprint with clearance margin. Parts with increased heights (200PX22MCC10X16 and 250PX22MEFC10X16 at 0.709") may require PCB layout verification to confirm adequate clearance.

Q: What is the significance of extended lifetime ratings (12000 hours vs. 2000 hours)?

A: Lifetime rating indicates the expected operational duration at the specified temperature (105°C or 125°C) before capacitance degradation reaches the tolerance limit. Extended lifetime ratings (12000 hours) provide longer service life and greater reliability margin compared to the original 2000-hour specification. This is particularly relevant for applications requiring extended operational periods or higher reliability margins.

Q: Can I substitute a capacitor with a different operating temperature range?

A: The original UVZ2C220MPH operates from -40°C to 105°C. Substitute parts with identical or wider temperature ranges are acceptable. B43866C1226M extends the upper operating limit to 125°C, which is compatible for applications operating within the original -40°C to 105°C range and provides additional thermal margin for higher-temperature environments.

Q: What does ROHS3 compliance mean for this capacitor?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements, restricting the use of specific hazardous materials. All active substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant, while the original UVZ2C220MPH is RoHS non-compliant. ROHS3 compliance is required for many modern applications and regulatory environments.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain the radial, can package with through-hole mounting and identical lead spacing (5.00 mm) and can diameter (10.00 mm). Packaging format compatibility is guaranteed across all listed substitutes.
