Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Ohmite 95J15K is based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 15 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Power rating: 5W
• Composition: Wirewound
• Package configuration: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.264" Dia x 0.969" L (6.70mm x 24.60mm)
• Temperature coefficient: ±30ppm/°C
• Termination count: 2

The substitute part 95J15KE maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factor. Substitution is differentiated by packaging configuration (Bulk versus standard packaging) and RoHS compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 95J15K and 95J15KE are electrically and mechanically equivalent 15 kOhms 5W wirewound axial resistors from Ohmite's Series 90 product line. Selection between these parts is determined by compliance and packaging requirements:

The 95J15K is suitable for applications where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable or where standard packaging is required. The 95J15KE provides ROHS3 compliance for applications subject to RoHS3 regulatory requirements and is available in bulk packaging configuration. Both components maintain identical electrical performance, dimensional specifications, and thermal characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 95J15KE be used as a direct replacement for 95J15K?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, composition, package type, and physical dimensions. The primary differences are packaging configuration and RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging options?

A: The 95J15K uses standard packaging while the 95J15KE uses bulk packaging. Both contain the same component with identical specifications; packaging selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect component performance?
