Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0ADAP3000-RE is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating: 3 A (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 600 V (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 600 V or higher (equal or greater acceptable)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Ceramic (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 3AB, 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" (Axial) (exact match required)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 10 kA (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (equal or wider range acceptable)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (equal or higher compliance acceptable)

The BK-AHC-V-3-R manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 0ADAP3000-RE and BK-AHC-V-3-R maintain active product status and comply with ROHS3 requirements, supporting long-term design continuity. The 0ADAP3000-RE carries cURus approval, while the BK-AHC-V-3-R carries UL approval. Both certifications are recognized standards for electrical safety compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, procurement lead times, and existing design documentation requirements. Dimensional tolerances (0.266" vs. 0.275" diameter and 1.292" vs. 1.288" height) fall within acceptable mechanical variation for through-hole mounting applications. DC cold resistance values (0.064 Ohms vs. 0.095 Ohms) represent minor electrical parameter differences that do not affect functional substitution in standard overcurrent protection circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BK-AHC-V-3-R replace the 0ADAP3000-RE in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are 3 A, 600 V AC ceramic cartridge fuses with fast-blow response, 10 kA breaking capacity, and identical package dimensions (3AB, 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" axial). Through-hole mounting compatibility is confirmed. Both maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What are the key differences between these two fuses?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer identity (Bel Fuse Inc. vs. Eaton - Electronics Division), approval agency (cURus vs. UL), and minor electrical parameters. The 0ADAP3000-RE specifies 600 V DC rating and 0.064 Ohms DC cold resistance. The BK-AHC-V-3-R does not specify DC voltage rating but carries UL approval. Dimensional tolerances vary slightly (diameter: 0.266" vs. 0.275"; height: 1.292" vs. 1.288").

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with package dimensions?

A: No. Both fuses use the 3AB, 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" (Axial) package specification. Dimensional variations (0.009" diameter difference and 0.004" height difference) are within acceptable mechanical tolerances for through-hole PCB and panel-mount applications.

Q: Which approval agency certification should I specify?

A: Both cURus and UL are recognized electrical safety standards. Selection depends on your application requirements and regional compliance mandates. The 0ADAP3000-RE carries cURus approval; the BK-AHC-V-3-R carries UL approval. Verify your system design documentation for specific certification requirements.

Q: Can I use these fuses interchangeably in production?

A: Yes, provided your design documentation permits cross-manufacturer substitution and both approval certifications are acceptable for your application. Confirm with your quality and compliance teams before implementing design changes.
