HKP-L-R Cartridge Fuse Holder Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HKP-L-R is a cartridge fuse holder manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division, designed for panel mount applications with a 30 A current rating at 250V. This component accommodates 0.25" diameter by 1.26" length cartridge fuses (6.35mm x 32mm) and features a single circuit configuration with solder lug termination.

The HKP-L-R is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure continued availability for maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where this fuse holder specification is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HKP-L-R is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• 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

The substitute part BK/HKP-L-R matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division within the HKP series and are compatible with 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" (SFE-20) fuses.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BK/HKP-L-R is the direct substitute for the obsolete HKP-L-R. Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

Compliance Status:

• Both parts are ROHS3 compliant
• Both parts carry ECCN classification EAR99
• Both parts share identical HTSUS code 8538.90.8180

Availability Consideration: The BK/HKP-L-R is classified as Active product status with 1170 pieces in stock, compared to the HKP-L-R which is Obsolete with 785 pieces in stock. For new designs and ongoing procurement, the BK/HKP-L-R is the appropriate selection.

Packaging Difference: The BK/HKP-L-R is supplied in Bulk packaging, whereas the HKP-L-R uses standard packaging. This distinction affects order quantities and handling but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BK/HKP-L-R replace HKP-L-R in existing applications?

A: Yes. The BK/HKP-L-R is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the HKP-L-R. Both parts accommodate identical fuse specifications (0.25" Dia x 1.26" L cartridge fuses), operate at 30 A and 250V, feature single circuit panel mount configuration, and use solder lug termination with brass tin-plated contacts.

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

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging. The HKP-L-R is obsolete, while BK/HKP-L-R is active. The BK/HKP-L-R is supplied in bulk packaging. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both HKP-L-R and BK/HKP-L-R are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What fuse types are compatible with these holders?

A: Both holders are designed for use with 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" (SFE-20) cartridge fuses.

Q: What is the termination method for these fuse holders?

A: Both parts feature solder lug termination, enabling direct soldering to PCBs or circuit assemblies.
