Littelfuse 0225010.H Glass Cartridge Fuse 10A 125VAC 2AG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Littelfuse 0225010.H is a 10A 125VAC glass cartridge fuse in 2AG package format (5mm x 15mm). This component is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of active equivalent alternatives for continued system support and procurement. The part requires a dedicated fuse holder for installation and operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C with fast-blow response characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0225010.H is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 10 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating (AC): 125 V (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Glass (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2AG, 5mm x 15mm (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Requires Holder (exact match required)
• Melting I²t: 116 (exact match required)

All three substitute parts—0225010.HXUP, 0225010.MXUP, and 0225010.VXUP—meet these criteria and are manufactured by Littelfuse Inc. in active product status. These parts are functionally equivalent and mechanically compatible with the original 0225010.H specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts (0225010.HXUP, 0225010.MXUP, 0225010.VXUP) are direct functional replacements for the obsolete 0225010.H. Selection among these equivalents should be based on the following factors:

Product Status: All substitute parts are in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance: The substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance, whereas the original part is RoHS non-compliant. This represents an improvement in environmental and regulatory alignment. All substitute parts maintain the same approval certifications (CE, CSA, PSE, UL) as the original, with expanded regulatory coverage.

Packaging: All substitute parts are supplied in bulk packaging, which may differ from the original part's packaging specification. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Inventory Availability: 0225010.HXUP (2021 pcs), 0225010.MXUP (1779 pcs), and 0225010.VXUP (976 pcs) are all available in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0225010.HXUP, 0225010.MXUP, and 0225010.VXUP be used interchangeably with 0225010.H?

A: Yes. All three parts are parametrically equivalent across current rating, voltage rating, fuse type, package format, response time, and thermal characteristics. They are mechanically and electrically compatible with the original specification.

Q: What is the difference between the three substitute parts?

A: The three substitute parts are functionally identical in all electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences exist only in packaging format (all bulk) and potentially in manufacturing lot or distribution channel. Selection can be based on inventory availability or procurement preference.

Q: Does the change from RoHS non-compliant to ROHS3 compliant affect compatibility?

A: No. ROHS3 compliance is a regulatory and environmental improvement that does not alter the electrical or mechanical performance of the fuse. The substitute parts maintain full compatibility with the original application.

Q: Are there any differences in breaking capacity between the original and substitute parts?

A: Yes. The original 0225010.H specifies 10kA breaking capacity at rated voltage, while the substitute parts specify 500A. Verify that your application's fault current requirements are compatible with the 500A breaking capacity of the substitute parts.

Q: What certifications do the substitute parts carry?

A: The substitute parts carry CE, CSA, PSE, and UL certifications, providing broader regulatory coverage than the original part's CSA, METI, and UL certifications.

Q: Can I mix the original 0225010.H with substitute parts in the same system?

A: From a functional standpoint, yes. However, for consistency and long-term supportability, it is preferable to standardize on one of the active substitute parts, as the original is obsolete and future availability is not assured.
