Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 2EYP with the Schaffner EMC Inc. FN406-3-02 is permissible based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Common Substitution Criteria:

• Filter Type: Both are single-phase EMC/EMI line filters
• Configuration: Both feature single-stage design
• Voltage Rating: Both rated for 250V AC
• Mounting Type: Both utilize through-hole mounting
• Termination Style: Both employ PC pin termination
• Compliance: Both are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification
• Applications: Both designated for general-purpose use

Differentiating Parameters:

• Current Rating: 2EYP rated at 2A; FN406-3-02 rated at 3A
• Frequency Range: 2EYP operates at 50/60Hz; FN406-3-02 operates at DC ~ 400Hz
• Inductance: 2EYP at 5.7mH; FN406-3-02 at 2.5mH
• Operating Temperature: 2EYP -10°C ~ 40°C; FN406-3-02 -25°C ~ 100°C
• Approval Agencies: 2EYP carries CSA, UR, VDE; FN406-3-02 carries CSA, ENEC, UR

The FN406-3-02 provides higher current capacity and extended operating temperature range, making it suitable for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance or higher current throughput within the same voltage class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 2EYP and Schaffner EMC Inc. FN406-3-02 are active products with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these components depends on application-specific requirements:

Select 2EYP when:

• Application current requirement is 2A or below
• Operating environment is constrained to -10°C ~ 40°C range
• VDE certification is specifically required
• Standard 50/60Hz industrial frequency operation is required

Select FN406-3-02 when:

• Application current requirement exceeds 2A up to 3A
• Extended operating temperature range of -25°C ~ 100°C is required
• ENEC certification is required
• Frequency operation extends beyond 50/60Hz up to 400Hz
• Lower inductance value of 2.5mH is preferred over 5.7mH

Both components carry CSA and UR approvals, ensuring compatibility with North American and international safety standards. Both are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FN406-3-02 directly replace the 2EYP in all applications?

A: The FN406-3-02 is electrically and mechanically compatible as a substitute where the application current requirement does not exceed 3A and the operating frequency range is compatible. The higher current rating of the FN406-3-02 does not create incompatibility with 2A-rated circuits. However, the extended frequency range of the FN406-3-02 (DC ~ 400Hz versus 50/60Hz) indicates different filtering characteristics that must be evaluated for specific EMI/EMC performance requirements.

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

A: The 2EYP has an inductance of 5.7mH while the FN406-3-02 has 2.5mH. Inductance directly affects filter performance characteristics, particularly in attenuation curves and frequency response. The lower inductance of the FN406-3-02 may result in different filtering performance across the frequency spectrum. Application-specific EMI/EMC testing may be required to confirm equivalent filtering effectiveness.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 2EYP is supplied in bag packaging while the FN406-3-02 is supplied in tray packaging. This affects handling, storage, and assembly line integration but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Which certifications are common to both parts?

A: Both the 2EYP and FN406-3-02 carry CSA and UR approvals. The 2EYP additionally carries VDE certification, while the FN406-3-02 carries ENEC certification. These certifications confirm compliance with regional safety and EMC standards.

Q: Can the 2EYP be used in applications requiring the FN406-3-02?

A: The 2EYP cannot be used as a substitute for the FN406-3-02 in applications requiring current ratings above 2A or operating temperatures above 40°C. The 2EYP is limited to 2A maximum current and -10°C ~ 40°C operating range.
