Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 207825-6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle with male pins
• Number of positions: 4
• Shell size - insert designation: 11-4
• Mounting configuration: Panel mount, through hole with flange
• Termination method: Solder
• Fastening mechanism: Threaded
• Orientation: A
• Shell material: Thermoplastic
• Contact finish at mating surface: Gold
• Voltage rating: 250VAC/DC
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C
• Material flammability: UL94 V-0
• Series classification: CPC Series 1

The substitute part 207825-9 maintains equivalence across all mandatory parameters while offering improved product status and regulatory compliance. Both parts share the same base product number (207825), confirming their functional interchangeability within the CPC Series 1 circular connector family.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Product Status Consideration: The 207825-6 is classified as obsolete, while the 207825-9 maintains active product status. For new designs and ongoing production requirements, the 207825-9 is the appropriate selection to ensure long-term component availability and manufacturer support.

Regulatory Compliance: The 207825-9 provides ROHS3 compliance and defined REACH status, whereas the 207825-6 is RoHS non-compliant with undefined REACH status. Applications subject to environmental regulations or customer compliance requirements should utilize the 207825-9.

Functional Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 4-position configuration, 11-4 shell size, panel mount through-hole design with threaded fastening, solder termination, gold-plated contacts, 250VAC/DC voltage rating, and -55°C to 105°C operating temperature range. The parts are functionally interchangeable for applications where these specifications are required.

Packaging and Availability: The 207825-9 is supplied in tray packaging with higher current inventory levels (1304 pieces versus 1074 pieces), supporting improved supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 207825-9 directly replace the 207825-6 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 207825-9 maintains complete functional equivalence with the 207825-6 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, termination method, and operating specifications. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

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

A: The 207825-6 is obsolete, indicating TE Connectivity no longer manufactures or supports this part. The 207825-9 is active, meaning it remains in current production with ongoing manufacturer support, technical documentation, and supply availability. For new applications and long-term production, the active status of 207825-9 ensures component continuity.

Q: How do the RoHS compliance statuses differ between these parts?

A: The 207825-6 is RoHS non-compliant with undefined REACH status. The 207825-9 is ROHS3 compliant and has defined REACH status. Applications requiring environmental compliance certification should specify the 207825-9.

Q: Are there differences in electrical performance between these connectors?

A: No. Both parts operate at 250VAC/DC voltage rating, maintain the same operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, and feature identical gold-plated contact finishes. Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What packaging differences exist between the 207825-6 and 207825-9?

A: The 207825-6 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 207825-9 is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for production and inventory management of circular connectors.

Q: Are both parts suitable for solder termination applications?

A: Yes. Both the 207825-6 and 207825-9 are specified for solder termination. The solder connection method is identical for both parts, supporting equivalent assembly processes.

Q: What is the shell size designation 11-4, and does it apply to both parts?

A: The 11-4 designation specifies the shell size and insert configuration for the CPC Series 1 circular connector family. This specification is identical for both the 207825-6 and 207825-9, ensuring mechanical compatibility and interchangeability.
