Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the VL1CKGP300 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Voltage rating of 2V and current rating of 40mA maximum or lower
• Mechanical Compatibility: Round panel cutout shape with 0.24" (6.10mm) dimensions to fit existing panel openings
• Optical Compatibility: Green lamp color for consistent visual indication
• Environmental Compliance: IP67 ingress protection rating and ROHS3 compliance
• Manufacturer Consistency: APEM Inc. product line for supply chain continuity

The substitute part Q6F7CXXG02E meets these core substitution criteria while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original VL1CKGP300 specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Q6F7CXXG02E serves as a direct substitute for the obsolete VL1CKGP300 based on the following engineering criteria:

• Electrical Compatibility: The substitute operates at identical voltage (2V) with reduced maximum current (20mA vs 40mA), ensuring safe operation within existing circuit designs
• Mechanical Fit: Both components share identical panel cutout dimensions (0.24"/6.10mm), enabling direct panel mounting without mechanical modification
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, satisfying environmental and manufacturing standards
• Supply Status: The Q6F7CXXG02E is classified as active product with 3000 units in stock, providing reliable long-term availability compared to the obsolete VL1CKGP300

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Q6F7CXXG02E replace VL1CKGP300 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical panel cutout dimensions (6.10mm), voltage rating (2V), and ingress protection (IP67). The substitute operates at lower maximum current (20mA), which is compatible with circuits designed for the original 40mA specification.

Q: What are the differences in lens specifications?

A: The VL1CKGP300 features a 5.50mm diameter lens, while the Q6F7CXXG02E uses a 3mm T-1 lens with diffused transparency and 100° viewing angle. These optical differences may affect brightness distribution and viewing characteristics in the application.

Q: Does the substitute require circuit modifications?

A: No circuit modifications are required. The Q6F7CXXG02E operates at the same voltage and lower current, making it directly compatible with existing power supply and current-limiting designs.

Q: What is the significance of the wire lead termination on the substitute?

A: The Q6F7CXXG02E includes 7.87" (200.00mm) wire leads for connection, whereas the original VL1CKGP300 termination style is not specified. Integration method should be verified based on your specific panel assembly requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both VL1CKGP300 and Q6F7CXXG02E are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental regulations for electronic component manufacturing and use.
