AGC-1-3/4-R Glass Cartridge Fuse Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AGC-1-3/4-R is a 1.75 A, 250 V AC/DC fast-blow glass cartridge fuse manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division. This component is classified as Active product status and requires a compatible fuse holder (3AB, 3AG type) for installation. Glass cartridge fuses serve as overcurrent protection devices in electrical circuits and must be replaced when they operate at rated conditions. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts ensures circuit continuity and maintains protection specifications when the primary part becomes unavailable.

The AGC-1-3/4-R maintains Active product status with RoHS compliance. This part is suitable for applications requiring standard RoHS certification.

Parametric Equivalent: BK/AGC-1-3/4-R (Eaton)

The BK/AGC-1-3/4-R is a direct parametric equivalent manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division. It matches all electrical and mechanical specifications of the primary part. This variant carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, providing enhanced regulatory documentation. Selection between AGC-1-3/4-R and BK/AGC-1-3/4-R depends on specific regulatory requirements of the end application.

Similar Manufacturer Part: 03121.75HXP (Littelfuse)

The 03121.75HXP from Littelfuse Inc. meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. This part carries ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and holds multiple approval agencies (CE, CSA, PSE, UL). Additional technical data includes Breaking Capacity of 100A, Melting I²t of 3.6, and DC Cold Resistance of 0.0856 Ohms. Selection of the Littelfuse part is appropriate when multi-agency approvals or specific performance metrics are required by circuit design specifications.

All three parts are Active status and suitable for direct substitution based on parameter equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK/AGC-1-3/4-R be used as a direct replacement for AGC-1-3/4-R?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and share identical electrical ratings (1.75 A, 250 V AC), fuse type (Cartridge, Glass), response time (Fast Blow), package designation (3AB, 3AG), physical dimensions (0.250" Dia x 1.250" L), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The BK variant provides ROHS3 compliance and REACH documentation.

Q: Is the Littelfuse 03121.75HXP compatible with the same fuse holder as AGC-1-3/4-R?

A: Yes. The 03121.75HXP shares the identical package designation (3AB, 3AG) and physical dimensions (0.250" Dia x 1.250" L), ensuring mechanical compatibility with holders designed for the AGC-1-3/4-R.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Current Rating (1.75 A), Voltage Rating - AC (250 V), Fuse Type (Cartridge, Glass), and Response Time (Fast Blow) must match exactly. Physical dimensions and package designation must also be identical.
