Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCHURTER 7010.6420.37 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the board mount axial fuse category. The following parameters must remain constant for functional interchangeability:

• Current Rating: 5 A
• Voltage Rating (AC/DC): 125 V
• Response Time: Fast Blow
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Fuse Type: Board Mount (Cartridge Style Excluded)
• Package / Case: Cartridge, Non-Standard (Axial)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 300 A
• Melting I²t: 8.7
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 85°C
• Physical Dimensions: 0.093" Dia x 0.315" L (2.36mm x 8.00mm)
• Approval Agency: GAM T1

The SCHURTER 7010.6420.47 meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, making it a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 7010.6420.37.
