Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCHURTER 6162.0044 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Connector style and type (IEC 320-C14, Receptacle, Male Blades)
• Electrical ratings (10A at 250VAC)
• Position count (3 positions)
• Mounting configuration (Panel Mount, Flange)
• Filter classification (Unfiltered - Commercial)
• Regulatory compliance (UL, CSA, VDE certifications)

The Qualtek 703W-00/05 meets these core functional requirements. Differences in termination method (Quick Connect vs. Solder Eyelet) and panel cutout dimensions represent design variations that must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Qualtek 703W-00/05 provides functional equivalence to the SCHURTER 6162.0044 for IEC 320-C14 power entry applications. Both components maintain identical electrical specifications (10A, 250VAC) and connector geometry (3-position, male blades, panel mount flange).

The Qualtek part carries active product status with broader regulatory approval coverage (CCC, CSA, UL, VDE) compared to the obsolete SCHURTER component. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

Selection between these parts depends on termination method compatibility. The SCHURTER uses solder eyelet termination, while the Qualtek employs quick connect terminals. Panel cutout dimensions differ slightly (SCHURTER: 29.70mm x 22.20mm; Qualtek: 30.40mm x 22.40mm), requiring verification against existing panel designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Qualtek 703W-00/05 directly replace the SCHURTER 6162.0044 in existing designs?

A: Electrical and connector compatibility is confirmed. Physical integration requires verification of termination method (solder eyelet vs. quick connect) and panel cutout dimensions against your specific application.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference (Obsolete vs. Active)?

A: The SCHURTER 6162.0044 is no longer manufactured. The Qualtek 703W-00/05 is in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Are the regulatory certifications equivalent?

A: Both parts carry UL and CSA certifications. The Qualtek includes additional CCC and VDE approvals. Verify that your application requirements align with the certifications of your selected component.

Q: How do the panel cutout dimensions affect substitution?

A: The Qualtek cutout (30.40mm x 22.40mm) is slightly larger than the SCHURTER (29.70mm x 22.20mm). Existing panel designs may require modification to accommodate the Qualtek connector.

Q: What is the impact of different termination methods?

A: The SCHURTER uses solder eyelet termination for direct PCB soldering. The Qualtek uses quick connect terminals (0.157" / 3.9mm) for wire attachment. Your assembly process and wiring configuration must support the selected termination type.
