SCHURTER 0032.0704 Cartridge Fuse Holder - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SCHURTER 0032.0704 is a single-circuit cartridge fuse holder rated for 6.3 A at 250V with panel mount configuration and 5mm x 20mm fuse compatibility. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The part features quick connect termination (0.110" / 2.8mm) and is ROHS3 compliant.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SCHURTER 0032.0704 is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Fuse Type & Size: Must be cartridge type, 5mm x 20mm form factor
  • Mounting Configuration: Panel mount orientation required
  • Termination Interface: Quick connect 0.110" (2.8mm) terminals
  • Voltage Rating: Minimum 250V
  • Number of Circuits: Single circuit (1)

The Littelfuse 85100001009 meets all mechanical and electrical interface requirements. The primary difference is the current rating (10 A versus 6.3 A), which represents a higher capacity variant within the same physical and electrical envelope. This substitution is valid where the system design permits operation at the higher current rating or where the fuse holder will be used with lower-rated fuses.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Littelfuse 85100001009 is the identified equivalent for the obsolete SCHURTER 0032.0704. Selection is supported by:

  • Active Product Status: The Littelfuse part is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 and REACH compliance, meeting current environmental and safety standards.
  • Mechanical Compatibility: Identical fuse size, mounting configuration, and termination interface enable direct physical substitution.
  • Electrical Interface: Both parts operate at 250V with single-circuit configuration and identical quick connect terminals.

The higher current rating of the Littelfuse part (10 A versus 6.3 A) does not preclude substitution; the fuse holder itself is rated for this capacity. System designers must confirm that the application circuit design accommodates or is unaffected by this rating difference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Littelfuse 85100001009 be used as a direct replacement for the SCHURTER 0032.0704?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical fuse size (5mm x 20mm), mounting type (panel mount), termination style (quick connect 0.110"), voltage rating (250V), and circuit count (1). Physical and electrical interfaces are compatible.

Q: What is the significance of the different current ratings (6.3 A vs. 10 A)?

A: The current rating refers to the maximum capacity of the fuse holder itself. The Littelfuse part has a higher capacity rating. In applications where the original 6.3 A rating was selected for circuit protection, the fuse element (not the holder) determines actual protection. The holder can accommodate fuses rated at or below its maximum capacity.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. No compliance barriers exist for substitution.

Q: Why is the SCHURTER part listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The Littelfuse equivalent ensures continued access to functionally identical fuse holder technology.

Q: Does packaging affect substitution eligibility?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect functional compatibility or substitution validity.
