RS005180R0FS73 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RS005180R0FS73 is a 180 Ohm, 5W wirewound axial resistor manufactured by Vishay Dale with ±1% tolerance and moisture-resistant construction. This component is classified as Active product status and is currently in stock with 1302 units available. The part operates across a temperature range of -65°C to 250°C with a temperature coefficient of ±20ppm/°C, making it suitable for industrial and high-temperature applications requiring precision resistance values.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part reaches end-of-life status, experiences supply constraints, or when design requirements mandate compliance with specific regulatory standards such as RoHS certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RS005180R0FE73 serves as a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the RS005180R0FS73. Both components are Active status products manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical specifications and physical form factors.

The primary distinction between these parts lies in regulatory compliance status. The RS005180R0FE73 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, whereas the RS005180R0FS73 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Selection between these parts should be based on the regulatory requirements of the end application and target market. Applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH restrictions require the RS005180R0FE73. Applications without such regulatory constraints may utilize either part based on availability and supply chain considerations.

Both parts carry the same ECCN classification (EAR99) and HTSUS code (8533.21.0080), indicating equivalent export and tariff treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RS005180R0FE73 be used as a direct replacement for RS005180R0FS73 in all applications?

A: Yes, the RS005180R0FE73 is electrically and mechanically equivalent.
