Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the UVZ2D4R7MPD is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters:

Capacitance: 4.7 µF (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
Voltage Rating: 200 V minimum (equal or higher voltage acceptable)
Package Type: Radial, Can (exact match required)
Lead Spacing: 0.138" (4.60mm) (exact match required)
Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)

Secondary Considerations:

Physical dimensions (diameter and height)
Lifetime rating at operating temperature
Ripple current specifications
Product status and compliance certifications

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories: Upgrade parts (higher voltage or improved lifetime), Similar parts (same voltage with dimensional variations), and Direct equivalents (same specifications from alternative manufacturers).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Voltage, 200 V):

SEK4R7M200ST from Cornell Dubilier Electronics is the primary direct equivalent. This part maintains identical capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and lead spacing. It offers improved lifetime (2000 hours at 105°C versus 1000 hours) and Active product status, making it suitable for new designs. Physical height is reduced to 0.433 inches, which may provide board layout advantages.

For Voltage Upgrade Applications:

UVC2G4R7MPD (Nichicon, 400 V) provides the highest voltage rating with Active product status and doubled lifetime (2000 hours at 105°C). This part is recommended when circuit design permits higher voltage operation and extended component life is required.

UVZ2E4R7MPD (Nichicon, 250 V) offers a moderate voltage increase with maintained 1000-hour lifetime rating. Lead spacing and package dimensions remain identical to the original part.

UVY2V4R7MPD (Nichicon, 350 V) provides intermediate voltage rating with Active product status consideration through its cross-reference network.

For Alternative Manufacturer Selection:

Rubycon PX series parts (250PX4.7MEFC8X11.5, 350PX4.7MEFC8X11.5, 400PX4.7MEFC8X11.5) maintain identical lead spacing and diameter while offering Active product status. Height increases to 0.531 inches. These parts are suitable when board layout accommodates the increased height.

Rubycon LEX series (250LEX4.7MEFC8X9) provides extended lifetime (4000 hours at 125°C) with reduced height (0.433 inches) and extended operating temperature range to 125°C.

Product Status Considerations:

Parts marked as Active (UVC2G4R7MPD, SEK4R7M200ST, 250PX4.7MEFC8X11.5, 350PX4.7MEFC8X11.5, 400PX4.7MEFC8X11.5, 400PX4R7MEFC8X11.5) are recommended for new designs. Parts marked as Not For New Designs or Obsolete should be used only for legacy system maintenance.

All listed parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a higher voltage rated capacitor as a substitute?

A: Yes. A capacitor with higher voltage rating than the original specification can be used in the same circuit. The UVZ2D4R7MPD operates at 200 V; substitutes rated at 250 V, 350 V, or 400 V are electrically compatible. Higher voltage ratings provide additional safety margin and do not degrade circuit performance.

Q: What is the impact of different physical dimensions on board layout?

A: The UVZ2D4R7MPD has a height of 0.512 inches. SEK4R7M200ST and 250LEX4.7MEFC8X9 reduce this to 0.433 inches, allowing tighter board spacing. Rubycon PX series parts increase height to 0.531 inches, requiring additional vertical clearance. All parts maintain identical lead spacing (0.138 inches) and diameter (0.315 inches), ensuring footprint compatibility on PCBs designed for standard radial can packages.

Q: Does lifetime rating affect component selection?

A: Lifetime rating indicates expected operational duration at maximum rated temperature. The original UVZ2D4R7MPD is rated 1000 hours at 105°C. SEK4R7M200ST extends this to 2000 hours at the same temperature. Rubycon LEX series extends to 4000 hours at 125°C. Extended lifetime ratings provide longer service intervals and reduced maintenance frequency in applications operating continuously at elevated temperatures.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, matching the original UVZ2D4R7MPD specification. This ensures compatibility with regulatory requirements and environmental standards across all listed alternatives.

Q: What is the difference between Nichicon and alternative manufacturer parts?

A: Nichicon UVZ, UVC, and UVY series parts are direct manufacturer alternatives. Cornell Dubilier SEK series and Rubycon LEX and PX series are alternative manufacturers offering equivalent electrical specifications. Selection between manufacturers depends on supply chain availability, cost considerations, and specific application requirements. All listed parts meet the same electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria.

Q: Can I substitute UVY2D4R7MED for the UVZ2D4R7MPD?

A: UVY2D4R7MED has different lead spacing (0.098 inches versus 0.138 inches) and smaller physical dimensions. While electrically equivalent at 200 V, 4.7 µF, the different lead spacing makes it incompatible with PCBs designed for the UVZ2D4R7MPD footprint. This part is suitable only for new designs with modified PCB layouts.
