Ptc Resettable Fuses Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official Amphenol documentation to confirm current availability status. Note that some sources indicate limited supply or discontinuation for similar variants in this series. Ensure the selected component matches the required electrical specifications for the target application before procurement.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Selection Notes

Select this component when a self-resetting overcurrent protection device is required for low-voltage circuits. The 50 Ohm resistance and 40°C trip point define its thermal response characteristics. Verify that the radial leaded form factor fits the board layout constraints and that the 25V rating aligns with the system voltage requirements.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Part Context

This part belongs to the RL3006 series of PTC thermistors manufactured by Amphenol Advanced Sensors under the Thermometrics brand. The series includes various configurations with different resistance values, trip temperatures, and voltage ratings, all sharing the same radial disc package style for surface or through-hole integration.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Replacement Considerations

The RL3006-50-40-25-PTO is listed as discontinued in some distributor records. Potential substitutes include other parts within the RL3006 series such as the RL3006-50-90-25-PTO or RL3006-50-120-D1, provided their electrical parameters match the design requirements.
