Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 62PR5KLF is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The following parameters must match identically for a part to serve as a direct substitute:

  • Resistance value: 5 kOhms
  • Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
  • 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
  • Physical size: Round - 0.250" Dia (6.35mm)
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The 3329P-1-502LF from Bourns Inc. meets all these criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3329P-1-502LF is a direct functional equivalent to the 62PR5KLF. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the 62PR5KLF is obsolete while the 3329P-1-502LF remains in active production. For new designs or ongoing system support where the 62PR5KLF is no longer available, the 3329P-1-502LF from Bourns Inc. provides equivalent performance and regulatory compliance. The 3329P-1-502LF is supplied in tube packaging and maintains current inventory availability.
