BK/HKP-W Cartridge Fuse Holder 30A 250V Panel Mount

Part Overview

The BK/HKP-W is a cartridge fuse holder manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division, designed for 30 ampere circuits at 250 volts with panel mount configuration. This component accommodates 0.25" diameter by 1.26" length (6.35mm x 32mm) cartridge fuses, commonly referenced as 3AG or 1/4" x 1-1/4" (SFE-20) fuse types. The part features a single circuit configuration with solder lug termination and brass contacts finished in tin.

The BK/HKP-W is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent or substitute components is necessary for ongoing maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where this fuse holder specification is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BK/HKP-W is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Current Rating: 30 A
• Voltage Rating: 250V
• Fuse Size: 0.25" Dia x 1.26" L (6.35mm x 32mm)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge
• Number of Circuits: 1
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount
• Termination Style: Solder Lug
• Contact Material: Brass
• Contact Finish: Tin

The substitute part BK/HKP-W-R maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part. The primary distinction between these components is product status and regulatory compliance classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BK/HKP-W-R serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete BK/HKP-W. Both components are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for 30 ampere, 250 volt cartridge fuse holder applications.

The BK/HKP-W-R is classified as an active product with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The BK/HKP-W is non-compliant with RoHS requirements. For applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH regulatory frameworks, the BK/HKP-W-R is the appropriate selection.

Both components accommodate 3AG or 1/4" x 1-1/4" (SFE-20) cartridge fuses and are suitable for panel mount installations with solder lug termination.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK/HKP-W-R be used as a direct replacement for BK/HKP-W?

A: Yes. The BK/HKP-W-R is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the BK/HKP-W. Both components have identical current ratings (30 A), voltage ratings (250V), fuse sizes (0.25" Dia x 1.26" L), mounting configurations (panel mount), and termination styles (solder lug).

Q: What is the primary difference between BK/HKP-W and BK/HKP-W-R?

A: The BK/HKP-W is classified as obsolete and is RoHS non-compliant. The BK/HKP-W-R is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The BK/HKP-W-R is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging information for the BK/HKP-W is not specified in available documentation.

Q: What fuse types are compatible with these fuse holders?

A: Both the BK/HKP-W and BK/HKP-W-R accommodate 3AG or 1/4" x 1-1/4" (SFE-20) cartridge fuses with 0.25" diameter and 1.26" length (6.35mm x 32mm).

Q: Are these components suitable for new designs?

A: The BK/HKP-W is obsolete and not recommended for new designs. The BK/HKP-W-R is an active product and is the appropriate choice for new applications requiring a 30 ampere, 250 volt, single circuit cartridge fuse holder with panel mount configuration.

Q: Do these fuse holders require any special installation considerations?

A: Both components feature solder lug termination for panel mount installation. Installation procedures should follow standard PCB assembly and panel mount practices for electrical components rated at 250 volts and 30 amperes.
