Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is based strictly on the following key parameters: panel mount category, LED indicator type, red lamp color, forward voltage rating of 2V, round panel cutout shape, and similar panel cutout dimensions (8.13mm versus 8.00mm for the substitute). Compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulations, as well as an identical ECCN code (EAR99), ensure regulatory compatibility. Type, function, color, cutout specifications, and compliance are the allowed electrical and mechanical parameters for substitution in this category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection can be made based on the part status (VL300GP600 is obsolete, Q8P5CXXHR02E is active), ROHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status. Both parts share the same regulatory compliance and ECCN categorization, supporting direct substitution within the specified category constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What key parameters justify the substitution of Q8P5CXXHR02E for VL300GP600?
A1: Key substitution parameters are LED type, red lamp color, 2V forward voltage, round panel cutout shape, comparable panel cutout size (8.13mm and 8.00mm), and matching ROHS3/REACH compliance.

Q2: Is the panel cutout compatibility maintained between the main and substitute part?
A2: Yes, the panel cutout dimensions are 0.32" (8.13mm) for VL300GP600 and 0.315" (8.00mm) for Q8P5CXXHR02E, both supporting 8mm panel mount requirements.

Q3: Are there any differences in electrical parameters that affect substitution?
A3: Both parts operate at 2V; however, the nominal maximum current is 40mA for VL300GP600 and 20mA for Q8P5CXXHR02E.

Q4: Do both parts fulfill environmental and export compliance?
A4: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and have ECCN code EAR99.

Q5: What should be considered with respect to product status?
A5: VL300GP600 is obsolete, making Q8P5CXXHR02E valid for ongoing designs and replacements due to its active status and matching compliance criteria.
