Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Select substitute parts only if product status is active, and compliance and certifications match the requirements. RN60C3400FB14 meets the same electrical and mechanical specifications as RN60C3400FRE6 and is within the same series and compliance parameters, differing only by packaging option.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What criteria are used to determine if RN60C3400FB14 is a valid substitute for RN60C3400FRE6?
A: Substitution is established by identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, series, composition, mechanical size, features, compliance status, and part activity. Packaging is the only differing specification.

Q: Do substitute parts differ in form factor or footprint?
A: Both RN60C3400FRE6 and RN60C3400FB14 use the axial package and identical mechanical dimensions.

Q: What are the main considerations regarding compliance or certifications when substituting?
A: Both parts are RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected, ensuring compliance consistency within substitution.

Q: Is there any difference in mounting or handling between the substitute parts?
A: Both parts are for through-hole, axial mounting and have equivalent physical parameters; packaging type (tape & reel vs bulk) is the only difference.

Q: When is it appropriate to choose a substitute based only on packaging differences?
A: When all key electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters are identical, packaging selection can be based on inventory or application logistics.
