Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D1370FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 137 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia × 0.344" L
• Series compliance: MIL-R-10509/1, RN60
• Feature set: Flame retardant coating, military grade, moisture resistant

The RN60D1370FB14 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The only variance is packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) for the primary part versus Bulk packaging for the substitute. Both parts maintain the same base product number (RN60) and are manufactured by Vishay Dale.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60D1370FRE6 and RN60D1370FB14 are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. Selection between these parts should be based on procurement requirements:

The RN60D1370FRE6 in Tape & Reel packaging is suitable for automated assembly processes and high-volume production environments. The RN60D1370FB14 in Bulk packaging accommodates manual assembly, prototyping, or lower-volume applications.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Military-grade construction with MIL-R-10509/1 certification ensures reliability across the specified operating temperature range of -65°C to 175°C. The metal film composition with flame retardant coating and moisture resistance meets military specifications for harsh environment applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D1370FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D1370FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with 137 Ohms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 0.25W power rating, and identical physical dimensions. The only difference is packaging format: Tape & Reel versus Bulk. Component performance in the circuit is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between these parts?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment used in high-volume manufacturing. Bulk packaging is used for manual assembly, kit assembly, or lower-volume production runs. The component itself is identical.

Q: Are both parts suitable for military applications?

A: Yes. Both RN60D1370FRE6 and RN60D1370FB14 are military-grade components compliant with MIL-R-10509/1 specifications. They feature flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety characteristics required for military-grade applications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these resistors?

A: Both parts operate across -65°C to 175°C with a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, ensuring stable resistance values across this extended range.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: No. Both RN60D1370FRE6 and RN60D1370FB14 are RoHS non-compliant. They are REACH Affected components. Compliance requirements should be verified against your application and regional regulations.
