Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The HS25 2R2 F is identified as a parametric equivalent based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters:

  • Resistance value: 2.2 Ohms (identical)
  • Tolerance: ±1% (identical)
  • Composition: Wirewound (identical)
  • Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (equivalent)
  • Housing Type: Aluminum (identical)
  • Mounting Feature: Flanges (identical)
  • Lead Style: Solder Lugs (identical)
  • Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant (both active products)

Differing Parameter:

  • Power Rating: 25W (versus 50W for main part)

The HS25 2R2 F functions as a substitute only in applications where the 25-watt thermal capacity is sufficient. This part maintains all electrical and mechanical compatibility parameters while reducing power dissipation capability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HS50 2R2 F and HS25 2R2 F maintain active product status with current RoHS compliance certifications. Selection between these parts is determined by thermal load requirements:

  • HS50 2R2 F is specified for applications requiring 50-watt continuous power dissipation capability.
  • HS25 2R2 F is suitable for applications with maximum continuous power dissipation of 25 watts.

The HS25 2R2 F offers a smaller physical footprint (27.30mm × 14.20mm versus 49.10mm × 28.00mm) while maintaining identical electrical specifications and mechanical mounting compatibility. Both parts are RoHS compliant and maintain equivalent temperature stability characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HS25 2R2 F replace the HS50 2R2 F in all applications?

A: No. The HS25 2R2 F is suitable only for applications where continuous power dissipation does not exceed 25 watts. Applications requiring the full 50-watt thermal capacity must use the HS50 2R2 F.

Q: Are the electrical specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts provide 2.2 ohms at ±1% tolerance with 100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences?

A: The HS50 2R2 F measures 49.10mm × 28.00mm, while the HS25 2R2 F measures 27.30mm × 14.20mm. Both maintain the same seated height of 14.80mm. Board layout space availability may influence part selection.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The HS50 2R2 F is RoHS Compliant, and the HS25 2R2 F is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current regulatory requirements.

Q: Do these parts use the same mounting method?

A: Yes. Both parts feature aluminum housing with flanged mounting and solder lug connections, ensuring mechanical compatibility in equivalent circuit board designs.
