Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RER60F2000MC02 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 5W
• Composition: Wirewound
• Temperature coefficient: ±20ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 250°C
• Housing type: Aluminum
• Mounting feature: Flanges
• Lead style: Solder Lugs
• Package type: Axial, Box
• Series compliance: MIL-PRF-39009, RER60

The RER60F2000RC02 meets all electrical and mechanical parameter requirements for direct substitution. Both parts share identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, thermal characteristics, and physical mounting specifications. Differences in failure rate classification and inventory levels do not affect functional equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RER60F2000MC02 and RER60F2000RC02 are active production components within the Vishay Dale military RER60 series. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific failure rate requirements and inventory availability.

The RER60F2000MC02 carries a failure rate classification of M (1%), suitable for standard military and industrial applications. The RER60F2000RC02 provides a lower failure rate classification of R (0.01%), appropriate for high-reliability systems where enhanced component stability is specified. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and physical dimensions.

RoHS non-compliance status is consistent across both parts. REACH compliance information for RER60F2000RC02 is available upon request. Both components are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8533.21.0080.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RER60F2000RC02 be used as a direct replacement for RER60F2000MC02?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical parameters: 200 Ohms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 5W power rating, wirewound composition, ±20ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C to 250°C operating range, aluminum housing, flange mounting, and solder lug leads. The difference in failure rate classification does not affect functional substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the different failure rate classifications?

A: Failure rate classification indicates the expected component reliability under specified conditions. The M classification (1%) on RER60F2000MC02 and R classification (0.01%) on RER60F2000RC02 reflect different reliability grades within the military standard. Selection depends on system-level reliability requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions: 0.600" L x 0.646" W (15.24mm x 16.41mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.335" (8.51mm). PCB layout and mounting hole spacing are compatible.

Q: What is the difference between the "MC02" and "RC02" designations?

A: These designations reflect different manufacturing or quality control batches within the RER60 series. Both maintain compliance with MIL-PRF-39009 specifications and are functionally equivalent for circuit applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: No. Both RER60F2000MC02 and RER60F2000RC02 are RoHS non-compliant. If RoHS compliance is required, alternative component families must be evaluated.
