Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.10.0020, confirming regulatory alignment.

The BK/AGC-3-2/10-R is suitable for direct substitution in all applications where AGC-3-2/10-R is specified, with the additional benefit of ROHS3 compliance and higher current inventory availability (1239 Pcs vs. 943 Pcs).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK/AGC-3-2/10-R be used as a direct replacement for AGC-3-2/10-R?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all critical parameters: 3.2 A current rating, 250 V AC voltage rating, fast-blow response time, cartridge glass fuse type, and 3AB/3AG holder compatibility with 1/4" x 1-1/4" dimensions. Physical interchangeability is confirmed.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant?

A: ROHS3 Compliant represents an updated compliance certification level. Both designations confirm the part meets RoHS requirements; ROHS3 indicates compliance with the most current RoHS directive version. Both parts are suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance.

Q: Are there any temperature or operating condition differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C and are designed for the same AC/DC voltage and current specifications.

Q: What holder types are compatible with these fuses?

A: Both AGC-3-2/10-R and BK/AGC-3-2/10-R require 3AB or 3AG fuse holders. The 1/4" x 1-1/4" form factor ensures compatibility with standard fuse holder assemblies designed for this cartridge size.

Q: Is there a difference in availability between these two part numbers?

A: Current inventory shows BK/AGC-3-2/10-R has higher stock availability (1239 Pcs) compared to AGC-3-2/10-R (943 Pcs), both listed as New Original In Stock.
