TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 10ESK3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 10ESK3 is a single phase EMC/EMI line filter rated for 250VAC at 10A with 50/60Hz operating frequency. This chassis mount filter features wire lead termination and is designed for general purpose applications requiring electromagnetic compatibility filtering. The product is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status.

Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable, while maintaining equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility within the specified parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 10ESK3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Voltage - Rated AC: 250V
• Current: 10 A
• Filter Type: Single Phase
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
• Termination Style: Wire Leads
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Flexible Parameters (Allowable Variation):

• Configuration: Single Stage or Two Stage acceptable
• Frequency - Operating: 50/60Hz or extended range (DC ~ 400Hz) acceptable
• Operating Temperature: Range may exceed specified limits
• Inductance: Values may differ based on filter stage configuration
• Approval Agency: Different certifications acceptable if meeting regulatory requirements

The Schaffner EMC Inc. FN2060-10-07 qualifies as a substitute part based on matching all mandatory parameters while offering extended frequency range and improved temperature operating range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (TE Connectivity 10ESK3): Select the 10ESK3 when VDE certification is a specific requirement and single stage filter configuration is preferred. This part is active in production with 838 units in stock.

Substitute Part Selection (Schaffner FN2060-10-07): The FN2060-10-07 serves as a direct substitute when extended frequency range capability (DC ~ 400Hz) or broader operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 100°C) is beneficial to system design. This part carries CE and ENEC certifications in addition to CSA and UR approvals. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and share equivalent voltage, current, and mounting specifications.

Both parts are active products with comparable inventory availability (838 and 839 units respectively). Selection between these parts depends on specific application frequency requirements and certification mandates rather than electrical performance limitations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Schaffner FN2060-10-07 replace the TE Connectivity 10ESK3 in a 50/60Hz application?

A: Yes. The FN2060-10-07 operates across DC ~ 400Hz, which encompasses the 50/60Hz operating range of the 10ESK3. Both parts are rated for 250VAC at 10A with identical mounting and termination specifications.

Q: What is the difference between single stage and two stage filter configurations?

A: The 10ESK3 uses single stage filtering with 7.13mH inductance, while the FN2060-10-07 uses two stage filtering with 800µH inductance. Two stage configurations typically provide enhanced EMI/EMC attenuation across broader frequency ranges. Both configurations meet general purpose application requirements.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. The 10ESK3 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the FN2060-10-07 is supplied in tray packaging. Verify that your procurement and assembly processes accommodate the different packaging format.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory certifications?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 10ESK3 carries CSA, UR, and VDE certifications. The FN2060-10-07 carries CE, CSA, ENEC, and UR certifications. Both share CSA and UR approvals. Confirm that your application requirements align with the specific certification set of your selected part.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between these parts?

A: The 10ESK3 operates from -10°C to 40°C, while the FN2060-10-07 operates from -25°C to 100°C. The FN2060-10-07 provides extended temperature capability for applications requiring operation in wider environmental conditions.

Q: Are both parts currently in production?

A: Yes. Both the 10ESK3 and FN2060-10-07 are active products with current inventory availability.
