UVZ2V2R2MPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UVZ2V2R2MPD is a 2.2 µF, 350 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package manufactured by Nichicon. This component is classified as Not For New Designs, indicating it has been superseded in the product lifecycle. The UVZ series offers a 1000-hour lifetime rating at 105°C with general-purpose applications in through-hole configurations. Due to its obsolescence status, equivalent and substitute parts with improved specifications or active product status are available to ensure design continuity and long-term supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 400 V rated capacitor in place of the 350 V UVZ2V2R2MPD?

A: Yes. A higher voltage rating (400 V) is electrically compatible with a 350 V application. The capacitor will operate within its rated specifications with additional voltage margin. Mechanical dimensions must remain identical for direct substitution without PCB modification.

Q: What is the difference between ULD2G2R2MPD and UVY2G2R2MPD?

A: Both are 2.2 µF, 400 V Nichicon substitutes with identical mechanical dimensions (0.138" lead spacing, 0.315" case diameter, 0.512" height). The primary difference is lifetime: ULD2G2R2MPD offers 15000 hours at 105°C, while UVY2G2R2MPD offers 1000 hour at 105°C. ULD2G2R2MPD is the preferred upgrade for applications requiring extended operational life.

Q: Are Rubycon 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 and 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both are identical in electrical specifications (2.2 µF, 400 V, ±20%, 15000 Hrs @ 105°C) and mechanical dimensions (0.138" lead spacing, 0.315" case diameter, 0.512" height). Both are Active products with ROHS3 compliance. The 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 has significantly higher inventory availability.

Q: Can I use 400LEX2.2MEFC8X11.5 if my PCB has limited vertical clearance?

A: The 400LEX2.2MEFC8X11.5 has a maximum seated height of 0.531" (14.60mm), compared to the UVZ2V2R2MPD at 0.512" (13.00mm). This 0.019" (0.50mm) increase requires verification of available PCB clearance. If clearance is insufficient, use 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 or 400PX2.2MEFC8X11.5, which maintain the original 0.512" height.

Q: Why is 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 recommended over other substitutes?

A: The 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 combines multiple advantages: Active product status ensuring long-term availability, 15000-hour lifetime at 105°C for extended reliability, 400 V rating providing voltage margin, identical mechanical dimensions for direct PCB substitution, ROHS3 compliance, and the highest inventory level (99,967 pcs) among available options.

Q: Is the UPW2V2R2MPD a suitable substitute?

A: No. Although the UPW2V2R2MPD shares the same capacitance (2.2 µF) and voltage rating (350 V), it has significantly different mechanical dimensions: lead spacing of 0.197" (5.00mm) versus 0.138" (4.60mm), case diameter of 0.394" (10.00mm) versus 0.315" (8.00mm), and height of 0.630" (16.00mm) versus 0.512" (13.00mm). Additionally, it is classified as Obsolete. Complete PCB redesign would be required.

Q: What is the impact of using a capacitor with extended operating temperature range?

A: The 400LEX2.2MEFC8X11.5 extends the operating range to -40°C ~ 125°C compared to the UVZ2V2R2MPD at -40°C ~ 105°C. This provides additional thermal margin for applications subject to elevated ambient temperatures or internal heat generation. The extended range does not negatively impact performance in standard -40°C ~ 105°C applications.
