AHC-30-R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AHC-30-R is a 30 A ceramic cartridge fuse rated for 600 V AC/DC operation, manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division. This fast-blow fuse is designed for use in 3AB and 3AG holders with dimensions of 1/4" x 1-1/4" (6.35mm x 31.75mm). The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant with cURus approval. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part number is unavailable or when inventory requirements necessitate alternative manufacturer stock.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AHC-30-R is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part BK1/AHC-30-R maintains identical specifications in the following key areas:

• Current Rating: 30 A
• Voltage Rating (AC): 600 V
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Ceramic
• Response Time: Fast Blow
• Package / Case: 3AB, 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4"
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 10 kA
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Size / Dimension: 0.250" Dia x 1.250" L (6.35mm x 31.75mm)
• Approval Agency: cURus
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and belong to the AHC series. Substitution is valid only when all parameters match exactly.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both AHC-30-R and BK1/AHC-30-R are Active products manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts carry cURus approval and ROHS3 compliance certification. Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and procurement requirements rather than technical differentiation. The BK1/AHC-30-R variant currently maintains higher inventory levels (1891 Pcs) compared to the AHC-30-R (904 Pcs), making it suitable for applications requiring extended supply assurance. Both parts are suitable for direct substitution in 3AB and 3AG fuse holder applications requiring 30 A, 600 V AC/DC fast-blow ceramic cartridge fuses.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK1/AHC-30-R be used as a direct replacement for AHC-30-R?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters, including current rating, voltage rating, fuse type, response time, package dimensions, breaking capacity, and operating temperature range. Both are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and carry identical certifications.

Q: Are there any differences in holder compatibility?

A: No. Both parts use the same 3AB and 3AG holder package specification with identical physical dimensions of 0.250" Dia x 1.250" L (6.35mm x 31.75mm). Installation in existing fuse holders requires no modification.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both AHC-30-R and BK1/AHC-30-R carry cURus approval and are ROHS3 compliant. They meet identical regulatory and compliance standards.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The part numbers represent different manufacturer stock designations for the same product specification. The BK1 prefix on BK1/AHC-30-R indicates an alternative stock or packaging designation within Eaton's product line, but the electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same application?

A: Yes. Since both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching specifications and certifications, they can be used interchangeably in the same circuit or application without any technical restrictions.
