Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UVZ2G2R2MPD is determined by the following core parameters:

Electrical Match: Capacitance (2.2 µF), voltage rating (400 V), and tolerance (±20%) must be identical
Mechanical Compatibility: Lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm), diameter (0.394" / 10.00 mm), and through-hole mounting must be maintained
Environmental Compliance: Operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) and RoHS3 compliance required
Polarization: Polar configuration must be preserved

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on physical dimensions and performance characteristics:

Group A (Identical Footprint): UPM2G2R2MPD and SEK2R2M400ST maintain the same lead spacing (5.00 mm) and diameter (10.00 mm) as the main part, ensuring direct PCB compatibility.

Group B (Alternate Footprint): UVY2G2R2MPD, EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D, MAL214252286E3, and MAL214272286E3 feature reduced lead spacing (4.60 mm) and smaller diameter (8.00 mm), requiring PCB layout verification before substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Footprint Replacement (Preferred)

SEK2R2M400ST (Cornell Dubilier Electronics) provides direct PCB compatibility with identical lead spacing (5.00 mm) and diameter (10.00 mm). This part is currently active and RoHS3 compliant. It maintains the same 2000-hour lifetime specification at 105°C as the UVZ2G2R2MPD.

Extended Lifetime Alternative

UPM2G2R2MPD (Nichicon) offers identical electrical and mechanical specifications with an extended 5000-hour lifetime at 105°C. However, this part is classified as obsolete and features increased height (0.669" vs. 0.492"), requiring PCB clearance verification. It is RoHS3 compliant.

Compact Footprint Alternatives

MAL214252286E3 and MAL214272286E3 (Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components) are active parts with 2500-hour lifetimes and reduced physical dimensions (lead spacing 4.60 mm, diameter 8.00 mm). These require PCB layout modification but offer superior availability and extended operational life. Both are RoHS3 compliant.

Reduced Lifetime Compact Option

UVY2G2R2MPD (Nichicon) and EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D (Chemi-Con) feature compact dimensions but reduced 1000-hour lifetimes at 105°C. These are suitable only for applications with lower thermal stress requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SEK2R2M400ST replace UVZ2G2R2MPD without PCB modification?

A: Yes. SEK2R2M400ST maintains identical lead spacing (5.00 mm), diameter (10.00 mm), and through-hole mounting configuration. Direct substitution is possible without PCB layout changes.

Q: What is the primary difference between Group A and Group B substitutes?

A: Group A parts (UPM2G2R2MPD, SEK2R2M400ST) retain the original 5.00 mm lead spacing and 10.00 mm diameter, enabling direct PCB compatibility. Group B parts (UVY2G2R2MPD, EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D, MAL214252286E3, MAL214272286E3) feature reduced lead spacing (4.60 mm) and diameter (8.00 mm), requiring PCB footprint verification and potential layout redesign.

Q: Why is UPM2G2R2MPD classified as obsolete despite superior specifications?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions and is independent of technical performance. UPM2G2R2MPD remains functionally viable with extended 5000-hour lifetime but may have limited future availability.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts meet RoHS3 compliance requirements, matching the environmental standard of the UVZ2G2R2MPD.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term availability?

A: MAL214252286E3 and MAL214272286E3 (Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components) are classified as active parts with extended 2500-hour lifetimes, indicating continued manufacturing and supply support.

Q: Can compact footprint parts be used in existing PCB designs?

A: Compact footprint substitutes (Group B) require PCB layout verification. Lead spacing reduction from 5.00 mm to 4.60 mm and diameter reduction from 10.00 mm to 8.00 mm may conflict with existing pad patterns and component clearances. PCB redesign may be necessary.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for all substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 105°C, matching the UVZ2G2R2MPD specification.
