Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HS50 100R F is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 100 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 50W (exact match required)
• Composition: Wirewound (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Housing type: Aluminum (exact match required)
• Mounting feature: Flanges (exact match required)
• Lead style: Solder Lugs (exact match required)
• Package type: Axial, Box (exact match required)

The identified substitute part HS50 100R F from ARCOL meets all electrical and mechanical parameter requirements for direct substitution. Both the original Ohmite part and the ARCOL equivalent share identical electrical specifications and mounting characteristics, ensuring functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Ohmite HS50 100R F and ARCOL HS50 100R F are active production components with full RoHS compliance. The ARCOL variant carries RoHS Compliant certification with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling. The Ohmite part maintains ROHS3 Compliant status. Selection between these equivalents may be based on inventory availability, supply chain logistics, or existing vendor qualification requirements. Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance and mechanical mounting requirements for 50W wirewound chassis mount resistor applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ARCOL HS50 100R F directly replace the Ohmite HS50 100R F?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent with identical resistance (100 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (50W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and mounting configuration (aluminum housing with flanges and solder lugs).

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these parts?

A: The ARCOL variant has a slightly larger width dimension (1.102" vs. 0.559"), but both maintain the same length (1.933") and seated height (0.583"). Verify available mounting space before substitution.

Q: What is the difference in RoHS compliance between the two parts?

A: The Ohmite part is ROHS3 Compliant. The ARCOL part is RoHS Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Both meet RoHS requirements; the ARCOL part has defined moisture handling specifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on supply availability and vendor qualification status. Both parts meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications for 50W wirewound chassis mount resistor applications.

Q: Are there any package or lead configuration differences?

A: No. Both parts use identical Axial, Box package type with Solder Lugs lead style, ensuring compatible PCB mounting and assembly processes.
