Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the S501-200-R ceramic fuse cartridge is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Current Rating: 200 mA (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 250 V (exact match required)
• Response Time: Fast Blow (exact match required)
• Breaking Capacity @ Rated Voltage: 1.5 kA (exact match required)

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

• Package / Case: 5mm x 20mm (exact match required)
• Fuse Type: Cartridge, Ceramic (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Requires Holder (exact match required)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the S501-200-R in applications requiring ceramic cartridge fuse protection at 200 mA, 250 V AC/DC with fast-blow characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute S501-200-R with BK/S501-200-R?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division, share identical electrical ratings (200 mA, 250 V AC, fast-blow), mechanical dimensions (5mm x 20mm), and breaking capacity (1.5 kA). They are direct equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between Eaton and Littelfuse ceramic fuses in this rating?

A: All parts meet the same electrical and mechanical specifications for 200 mA, 250 V AC/DC fast-blow ceramic cartridge fuses in 5mm x 20mm form factor. The primary differences are manufacturer identity and DC cold resistance values (Eaton parts: 6 Ohms; Littelfuse parts: 3.35 Ohms). Both values are within acceptable operating parameters for this fuse category.

Q: Are the Littelfuse 0216.200MXP and 0216.200HXP interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both Littelfuse parts have identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, breaking capacity, and DC cold resistance. They are parametric equivalents and can be used interchangeably.

Q: Do all these fuses require the same holder?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use the 5mm x 20mm form factor and require a compatible 5mm x 20mm fuse holder. No holder modification is necessary when substituting between these parts.

Q: Which part has the best availability?

A: The Littelfuse 0216.200MXP has the highest inventory level at 7154 pcs in stock.

Q: Are there any temperature rating differences I should consider?

A: The Littelfuse parts (0216.200MXP and 0216.200HXP) specify an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The Eaton parts do not specify an operating temperature range in the provided data. For applications requiring confirmed temperature specifications, verify with the manufacturer or consult detailed datasheets.
