Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BMA6032PQ is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Current Rating: 30 A
  • Voltage Rating: 600V
  • Fuse Type: Cartridge
  • Number of Circuits: 2
  • Fuse Size: 10mm x 38mm (5AG, Midget)
  • Termination Style: Screw Terminal, Pressure Plate, Quick Connect
  • RoHS Compliance: Required

The BMM603-2PQ qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on matching electrical specifications (30A, 600V, 2-circuit cartridge configuration) and maintaining RoHS compliance. Both components accommodate the same fuse size category and termination methods required for direct replacement in existing designs.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BMM603-2PQ is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent for the obsolete BMA6032PQ. Both components share identical electrical ratings (30A, 600V), fuse type (cartridge), circuit configuration (2-circuit), and fuse dimensions (10mm x 38mm). Both maintain RoHS compliance and are classified under the same HTSUS code, confirming functional and regulatory equivalence.

The BMM603-2PQ is currently in active production status with 736 units available in inventory, ensuring supply continuity for replacement applications and new designs requiring 30A, 600V, 2-circuit fuse block functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BMM603-2PQ directly replace the BMA6032PQ in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components meet identical electrical specifications (30A, 600V), accommodate the same cartridge fuse size (10mm x 38mm), support the same termination methods (Screw Terminal, Pressure Plate, Quick Connect), and are configured for 2-circuit operation. The BMM603-2PQ is the manufacturer-designated substitute.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The BMA6032PQ is classified as obsolete. The BMM603-2PQ provides equivalent functionality with active production status and confirmed inventory availability.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these components?

A: No. Both components are RoHS compliant and share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classification (8538.90.8180), confirming regulatory equivalence.

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

A: Both the BMA6032PQ and BMM603-2PQ accommodate 5AG cartridge fuses with dimensions 0.394" Dia x 1.496" L (10mm x 38mm), commonly referred to as Midget fuses.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: The BMA6032PQ is listed with standard packaging, while the BMM603-2PQ is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
