HS250 560R F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HS250 560R F is a 250W wirewound chassis mount resistor manufactured by Ohmite, rated at 560 Ohms with ±1% tolerance. This component is designed for high-power applications requiring stable resistance performance in aluminum-housed, flanged configurations. The part maintains Active product status and is RoHS Compliant, making it suitable for modern electronic assemblies. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility allow direct replacement in circuit designs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HS250 560R F is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance value: 560 Ohms (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
  • Composition: Wirewound (exact match required)
  • Housing type: Aluminum (exact match required)
  • Mounting feature: Flanges with M6 threaded leads (exact match required)
  • Compliance: RoHS status acceptable for equivalent or higher compliance level

The HS200 560R F qualifies as a parametric equivalent with one exception: the power rating is 200W versus 250W in the main part. This lower power rating represents a functional limitation that must be evaluated against circuit requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HS200 560R F from ARCOL is electrically equivalent to the HS250 560R F with respect to resistance value, tolerance, and composition. Both parts maintain Active product status and meet or exceed RoHS compliance requirements. The primary distinction is the reduced power rating of 200W in the substitute part compared to 250W in the main part.

Selection between these parts depends on circuit power dissipation requirements. If the application dissipates power at or below 200W, the HS200 560R F is suitable. If circuit design requires the full 250W capacity, the HS250 560R F must be used. Physical dimensions differ between the two parts, with the HS250 560R F being larger; mounting space availability should be verified before substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HS200 560R F replace the HS250 560R F in all applications?

A: No. The HS200 560R F has a lower power rating (200W versus 250W). Substitution is valid only when circuit power dissipation does not exceed 200W. Applications requiring the full 250W capacity must use the HS250 560R F.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible between these parts?

A: The parts differ in length and width. The HS250 560R F measures 4.319" L x 2.854" W, while the HS200 560R F measures 4.631" L x 1.791" W. Both share the same seated height of 1.646". Mounting space constraints must be evaluated before substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet current RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. The HS250 560R F is RoHS Compliant, and the HS200 560R F is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current regulatory standards.

Q: What is the difference in temperature coefficient between these parts?

A: The HS250 560R F specifies 100ppm/°C, while the HS200 560R F specifies ±100ppm/°C. Both values indicate equivalent temperature stability performance.

Q: Are the lead styles identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use M6 threaded leads, ensuring mechanical compatibility at the connection interface.
