62PR10KLF Trimmer Potentiometer - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 62PR10KLF is a 10 kOhm, 0.5W through-hole trimmer potentiometer manufactured by TT Electronics/BI. This cermet-based component features top adjustment with PC pin termination and a 1-turn rotation mechanism housed in a 0.250" diameter round package. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 62PR10KLF is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The following parameters must match identically for direct substitution:

• Resistance value: 10 kOhms
• Power rating: 0.5W
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Number of turns: 1
• Adjustment type: Top Adjustment
• Resistive material: Cermet
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pins
• Package diameter: 0.250" (6.35mm)

The 3329P-1-103LF from Bourns Inc. meets all specified parameters and qualifies as a direct equivalent substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3329P-1-103LF (Bourns Trimpot® 3329 - Sealed series) is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 62PR10KLF. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the 62PR10KLF is obsolete while the 3329P-1-103LF maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The 3329P-1-103LF is supplied in tube packaging and is suitable for direct replacement in applications requiring 10 kOhm, 0.5W trimmer potentiometers with cermet resistive elements and top adjustment capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3329P-1-103LF be used as a direct replacement for the 62PR10KLF?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical parameters (10 kOhms, 0.5W, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient), mechanical configuration (1-turn top adjustment, through-hole PC pins, 0.250" diameter), and resistive material (cermet). Direct substitution is supported.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute the 62PR10KLF?

A: The 62PR10KLF is classified as obsolete. The 3329P-1-103LF is an active product with ongoing manufacturing and supply availability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The 62PR10KLF packaging specification is not provided in the reference data. The 3329P-1-103LF is supplied in tube packaging. Verify packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Do both components meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both the 62PR10KLF and 3329P-1-103LF are ROHS3 compliant. The 3329P-1-103LF is REACH affected, while the 62PR10KLF is REACH unaffected. Verify REACH compliance requirements for your application and region.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components feature a round package with 0.250" (6.35mm) diameter, identical mounting footprint, and PC pin termination suitable for through-hole PCB assembly.
