Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 5120.1306.0 is identified as a direct equivalent based on the following substitution criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Identical manufacturer (SCHURTER Inc.)
• Same product category (AC Power Connectors)
• Shared base product number (5120.1306)
• Equivalent functional classification (Power Entry Connector)

Substitution Logic: The 5120.1306.0 represents the active production variant of the 5120.1306 series. The obsolete part 5120.1306.0.21 differs only in revision designation (.21 suffix), while the substitute maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute part is actively manufactured and stocked, providing direct functional replacement capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SCHURTER 5120.1306.0 is the designated active substitute for the obsolete 5120.1306.0.21. Selection of the active part is supported by:

• Product Status: The substitute maintains active manufacturing status with established supply chain availability (10557 units in stock versus 1107 units for the obsolete variant)
• Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain REACH unaffected status; the substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance, exceeding the RoHS compliance of the original part
• Regulatory Certifications: The substitute carries CCC, cULus, and ENEC approvals, establishing compliance with international standards
• Series Continuity: Both parts belong to the SCHURTER 5120 series, ensuring design continuity within the product family

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5120.1306.0 directly replace the 5120.1306.0.21 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5120.1306.0 is the active production equivalent. The .21 revision designation on the obsolete part indicates a specific production revision; the current active part supersedes this revision while maintaining functional compatibility within the 5120 series specifications.

Q: What is the difference between packaging designations for these parts?

A: The obsolete part 5120.1306.0.21 does not specify packaging information. The active substitute 5120.1306.0 is supplied in Bulk packaging, standard for this connector category.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts maintain REACH unaffected status. The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance compared to RoHS compliance on the original part, representing an upgrade in regulatory alignment. Both parts carry equivalent environmental and safety certifications.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to this substitution?

A: The obsolete part maintains limited stock (1107 units). The active substitute has substantially higher availability (10557 units), supporting long-term procurement planning and design continuity.

Q: Are the electrical and mechanical specifications identical?

A: The obsolete part does not provide detailed electrical and mechanical specifications in the available documentation. The active substitute specifies IEC 320-C14 connector style, 10A current rating, 250VAC voltage rating, 3-position configuration, panel mount flange installation, and quick connect 0.250" termination. These specifications define the functional parameters for the 5120 series.
