Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The KWS-R-200 has one manufacturer-recommended substitute: KTS-R-200. This substitution is valid based on the following criteria:

Both parts share identical functional classification as fast-acting fuses within the Eaton Bussmann Limitron series. Both maintain RoHS compliance and fall under the same HTSUS tariff code (8536.10.0040), confirming equivalent electrical and mechanical characteristics. The KTS-R-200 is the active production equivalent, making it the direct replacement for the obsolete KWS-R-200 model.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using the KWS-R-200, the KTS-R-200 is the manufacturer-designated replacement. The KTS-R-200 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts carry identical RoHS compliance certification and export classification (EAR99), confirming regulatory equivalence. Selection of the KTS-R-200 eliminates obsolescence risk while preserving electrical and mechanical compatibility within the Limitron fast-acting fuse family.
