Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SCHURTER 4310.0029 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: connector style (IEC 320-C15), connector type (plug with female sockets), current rating (10A), voltage rating (250VAC), number of positions (3), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and termination method (screw). Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as direct functional equivalents. The SCHURTER 4310.0042 satisfies all substitution criteria and is identified as an active equivalent. The SCHURTER 3-109-001 is categorized separately as a line filter product and does not meet the connector-specific substitution parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SCHURTER 4310.0042 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete SCHURTER 4310.0029. Both components are manufactured by SCHURTER Inc., belong to the 8101 series, and maintain identical electrical ratings, mechanical configuration, and material specifications. The 4310.0042 holds active product status and maintains full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. Approval agencies differ between the two parts; the 4310.0029 carries cCSAus, PSE, TUV, and VDE certifications, while the 4310.0042 carries CSA and PSE certifications. Selection should be based on specific regulatory requirements for the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SCHURTER 4310.0042 directly replace the 4310.0029 in existing applications?

A: The 4310.0042 meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria, including connector style, current and voltage ratings, mounting configuration, and termination method. Regulatory certification requirements must be evaluated against application-specific standards.

Q: What is the difference between the 4310.0029 and 4310.0042?

A: The primary difference is product status: the 4310.0029 is obsolete while the 4310.0042 is active. Both components share identical electrical specifications (10A, 250VAC), mechanical design (IEC 320-C15, free hanging, screw termination), and material properties (UL94 V-0, IP20). Approval agency certifications differ between the two models.

Q: Is the SCHURTER 3-109-001 a suitable substitute?

A: No. The 3-109-001 is an EMC/EMI line filter and does not meet the connector substitution criteria. It is categorized as a different product type and does not provide the IEC 320-C15 connector interface required for direct replacement.

Q: What compliance standards apply to these connectors?

A: Both the 4310.0029 and 4310.0042 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The 4310.0029 carries cCSAus, PSE, TUV, and VDE approvals. The 4310.0042 carries CSA and PSE approvals. Application requirements determine which certification set is appropriate.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Packaging information is not provided in the technical specifications for either component.
