Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Ohmite HS25 18R J and ARCOL HS25 18R J are active production components with full RoHS compliance. The Ohmite variant carries ROHS3 certification with REACH Unaffected status. The ARCOL variant is RoHS Compliant with Vendor Undefined REACH status. Selection between these parts should be based on supply availability, procurement lead times, and organizational compliance requirements. The ARCOL part includes pulse withstanding capability as an additional feature. Both components are classified under ECCN EAR99 for export control purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ARCOL HS25 18R J directly replace the Ohmite HS25 18R J?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (18 Ohms ±5%, 25W, ±100ppm/°C) and mechanical dimensions (1.075" L x 0.583" H seated). The aluminum housing, flanged mounting, and solder lug lead style are identical across both variants.

Q: What is the difference in width between the two parts?

A: The Ohmite variant specifies 0.559" W (14.20mm), while the ARCOL variant specifies 1.102" W (28.00mm). This dimensional difference does not affect electrical equivalence but may impact board layout considerations in space-constrained applications.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The Ohmite part is ROHS3 Compliant with REACH Unaffected status. The ARCOL part is RoHS Compliant with Vendor Undefined REACH status. Both carry EAR99 export classification. Compliance selection depends on end-use application and regional regulatory requirements.

Q: What additional feature does the ARCOL variant provide?

A: The ARCOL HS25 18R J includes pulse withstanding capability, which may provide enhanced performance in applications subject to transient voltage or current pulses.

Q: Are inventory levels a consideration for part selection?

A: The Ohmite variant has 1022 units in stock, while the ARCOL variant has 697 units in stock. Procurement decisions should account for project timeline and supply chain requirements.
