Equivalent & Substitute Parts for MDA-V-2/10-R

Part Overview

The MDA-V-2/10-R is a 200 mA, 250 V AC/DC ceramic cartridge fuse manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for continued system support and procurement. The fuse features a slow-blow response characteristic and 3AB, 3AG package configuration with axial through-hole mounting. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical ratings and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement without circuit redesign.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MDA-V-2/10-R are qualified based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Current Rating: 200 mA (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating (AC): 250 V (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Ceramic (exact match required)
• Response Time: Slow Blow (exact match required)
• Package Configuration: 3AB, 3AG, 1/4" x 1-1/4" Axial (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (maintained)

All three substitute parts from Littelfuse Inc. (0325.200HXP, 0325.200MXP, 0325.200VXP) satisfy these criteria. These parts are manufactured to the same industry standard specifications and are currently in active production status, providing long-term availability assurance compared to the obsolete MDA-V-2/10-R.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three Littelfuse 325 series substitute parts (0325.200HXP, 0325.200MXP, 0325.200VXP) are functionally equivalent to the MDA-V-2/10-R and are suitable for direct replacement. Selection among these three alternatives should be based on:

Product Status: All substitute parts are in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete MDA-V-2/10-R.

Regulatory Compliance: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and carry CE approval certification, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Electrical Equivalence: The substitute parts provide identical current rating (200 mA), voltage rating (250 V AC), response time (Slow Blow), and fuse type (Ceramic Cartridge). The specified breaking capacity of 100A and melting I²t of 0.213 for the Littelfuse parts exceed the requirements of the original specification.

Mechanical Compatibility: Physical dimensions of the substitute parts (0.275" Dia x 1.288" L) are within acceptable tolerance for 3AB, 3AG through-hole mounting applications. The dimensional variance from the original part (0.266" Dia x 1.292" L) does not affect circuit board compatibility or fuse holder engagement.

Packaging: All substitute parts are supplied in bulk packaging, consistent with standard procurement practices for active components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Littelfuse 0325.200HXP, 0325.200MXP, and 0325.200VXP parts be used interchangeably with the MDA-V-2/10-R?

A: Yes. All three Littelfuse parts meet the electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. The 200 mA current rating, 250 V AC voltage rating, slow-blow response, ceramic cartridge type, and 3AB, 3AG package configuration are identical across all parts.

Q: What is the difference between the three Littelfuse substitute part numbers?

A: The provided data indicates that 0325.200HXP, 0325.200MXP, and 0325.200VXP share identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. Differentiation between these part numbers is not defined in the available technical parameters.

Q: Are the physical dimension differences between the MDA-V-2/10-R and the Littelfuse substitutes a concern?

A: No. The MDA-V-2/10-R measures 0.266" Dia x 1.292" L, while the Littelfuse parts measure 0.275" Dia x 1.288" L. These dimensional variations are within acceptable tolerance for 3AB, 3AG through-hole fuse holder applications and do not affect mechanical fit or electrical performance.

Q: What certifications do the substitute parts carry?

A: The Littelfuse 325 series substitute parts carry CE approval certification and maintain ROHS3 compliance. The original MDA-V-2/10-R does not specify approval agency certification in the available data.

Q: Is the operating temperature range of the substitute parts relevant to the substitution decision?

A: The Littelfuse substitute parts specify an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The original MDA-V-2/10-R does not specify operating temperature limits. The substitute parts' temperature range accommodates standard industrial and commercial applications.

Q: What is the inventory status of these substitute parts?

A: Current inventory levels are: 0325.200HXP (1013 Pcs), 0325.200MXP (853 Pcs), and 0325.200VXP (963 Pcs). All parts are in active production status, ensuring continued availability for future procurement requirements.
