Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 0224005.MXUSLP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 5 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating (AC): 250 V (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2AG, 5mm x 15mm (Axial) (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 100A (exact match required)
• Melting I²t: 17 (exact match required)

The substitute part 0224005.MXUP meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters and is classified as a parametric equivalent. Both parts are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. and maintain identical functional specifications for direct circuit board replacement.

The 0224005.MXUP carries approval agencies CE, CSA, and UL. The 0224005.MXUSLP carries approval agencies CE, CSA, METI, and UL. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and identical performance characteristics across all critical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0224005.MXUP be used as a direct replacement for 0224005.MXUSLP?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical current rating (5A), voltage rating (250V AC), fuse type (cartridge glass), package format (2AG, 5mm x 15mm), response time (fast blow), breaking capacity (100A), and melting I²t (17). Direct substitution is supported for through-hole circuit board applications.

Q: Are there differences in regulatory approvals between these parts?

A: The 0224005.MXUSLP includes METI approval in addition to CE, CSA, and UL certifications. The 0224005.MXUP carries CE, CSA, and UL approvals. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection should consider specific regional regulatory requirements for the end application.

Q: What is the significance of the 2AG package designation?

A: The 2AG package specifies a glass cartridge fuse with 5mm diameter and 15mm length in axial through-hole configuration. This standardized package format ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility across both substitute parts for direct board-level replacement without design modification.

Q: Are the electrical characteristics identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical DC cold resistance (0.0186 Ohms), melting I²t (17), breaking capacity at rated voltage (100A), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). Electrical performance is equivalent for circuit protection applications.
