SCHURTER 3-103-096 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SCHURTER 3-103-096 is a 375 mA surface mount board mount fuse rated for 125 V AC/DC operation. This fast blow fuse is designed for SMD applications with a 2-SMD square end block package configuration. The part is active in production status and widely used in electronic circuit protection applications requiring compact form factors and reliable overcurrent protection.

Substitute parts are identified to address packaging availability, inventory requirements, and operational temperature range considerations while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 3-103-096 are classified into two categories based on electrical and mechanical compatibility:

Upgrade Substitutes (3410.0025.02, 3410.0025.03): These parts maintain identical electrical ratings (375 mA, 125 V AC/DC, fast blow response) and mechanical dimensions. They differ in packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C vs. -55°C to 125°C). Both parts share the same base product number (3410.0025) and approval agency certification (cURus).

Parametric Equivalent (3-103-095): This part is electrically and mechanically identical to the main part, differing only in packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel). It maintains the same series designation (MGA-A), approval agencies (cURus, UL), and all electrical parameters.

All substitutes maintain the same fuse type classification (Board Mount, Cartridge Style Excluded), package configuration (2-SMD, Square End Block), and compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain active production status and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between the main part and substitutes depends on specific application requirements:

For applications requiring extended temperature operation: Parts 3410.0025.02 and 3410.0025.03 support operating temperatures up to 150°C, compared to 125°C for the main part and 3-103-095. Both upgrade substitutes carry cURus certification.

For applications requiring UL certification: The main part 3-103-096 and parametric equivalent 3-103-095 carry dual certification (cURus and UL). Parts 3410.0025.02 and 3410.0025.03 carry cURus certification only.

For packaging format requirements: The main part and upgrade substitutes (3410.0025.02, 3410.0025.03) are supplied in Tape & Reel format. The parametric equivalent 3-103-095 is supplied in Cut Tape format.

All parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within their respective certification and temperature rating constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 3410.0025.02 or 3410.0025.03 be used as direct replacements for 3-103-096?

A: Yes, for applications operating within -55°C to 125°C temperature range. Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings (375 mA, 125 V AC/DC), response time (fast blow), and mechanical dimensions. The extended temperature capability of these parts does not affect operation at lower temperatures. Verify that cURus certification meets your application requirements, as UL certification is not provided for these parts.

Q: What is the difference between 3410.0025.02 and 3410.0025.03?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. They share the same base product number (3410.0025) and differ only in internal variant designation. Both support -55°C to 150°C operating temperature and carry cURus certification.

Q: Can 3-103-095 replace 3-103-096?

A: Yes. These parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions. The only difference is packaging format: 3-103-096 is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while 3-103-095 is supplied in Cut Tape format. Both carry cURus and UL certification.

Q: Are there any resistance or melting I²t differences between these parts?

A: The main part 3-103-096 and parametric equivalent 3-103-095 specify melting I²t of 0.00035. The upgrade substitutes 3410.0025.02 and 3410.0025.03 specify melting I²t of 0.0037 and include DC cold resistance specification of 0.361 Ohms. These differences do not affect functional compatibility for standard circuit protection applications.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: For applications requiring operation above 125°C, select 3410.0025.02 or 3410.0025.03, which support temperatures up to 150°C. Verify that cURus certification is acceptable for your application, as these parts do not carry UL certification.
