SCHURTER 6182.0021 AC Power Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SCHURTER 6182.0021 is a power entry connector receptacle designed for IEC 320-2-2/F applications. This component functions as a female socket panel-mount connector rated for 10A at 250VAC in unfiltered commercial configurations. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility for new designs or replacement applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SCHURTER 6182.0021 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Connector style and type (IEC 320-2-2/F receptacle, female sockets)
• Electrical ratings (10A, 250VAC)
• Position count (3 positions)
• Mounting configuration (panel mount, snap-in)
• Termination method (quick connect 0.250")
• Filter classification (unfiltered - commercial)

Two active alternatives meet these core substitution criteria: SCHURTER 6600.4330 and Qualtek Electronics 716W-15/15. Both maintain identical electrical specifications and connector geometry within acceptable mechanical tolerances.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SCHURTER 6600.4330 is the primary direct substitute. It maintains identical electrical specifications and connector geometry while offering active product status and enhanced ingress protection (IP30 versus IP20). The part accommodates panel thicknesses up to 3.00mm, providing greater design flexibility than the original 1.50mm specification. SCHURTER 6600.4330 carries expanded regulatory approvals (CCC, cULus, ENEC) and includes a light pipe feature.

Qualtek Electronics 716W-15/15 serves as a secondary alternative for applications requiring panel thickness compatibility with the original specification (0.059" / 1.50mm). This part maintains all core electrical and mechanical parameters. Panel cutout dimensions across all three parts fall within 0.20mm variation, acceptable for standard panel mounting tolerances.

Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the regulatory status of the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SCHURTER 6600.4330 replace SCHURTER 6182.0021 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector style, electrical ratings (10A, 250VAC), position count, mounting type, and termination method. Panel cutout dimensions differ by 0.10mm x 0.80mm, within standard manufacturing tolerances. The substitute accommodates thicker panels (3.00mm maximum versus 1.50mm), making it suitable for retrofit applications.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute options?

A: SCHURTER 6600.4330 offers enhanced ingress protection (IP30) and broader regulatory certifications. Qualtek 716W-15/15 maintains the original panel thickness specification (0.059" / 1.50mm) and is suitable when panel thickness is a constraint. Both deliver identical electrical performance.

Q: Are panel cutout dimension variations significant?

A: Panel cutout dimensions vary by less than 0.20mm across all three parts. Standard panel mounting tolerances accommodate this variation. Verify specific panel design requirements if cutout precision is critical to your application.

Q: Do the substitutes maintain the same termination compatibility?

A: Yes. All three parts use quick connect termination with 0.250" (6.3mm) spade connectors, ensuring direct compatibility with existing wiring harnesses and circuit board connections.

Q: What regulatory approvals apply to each substitute?

A: SCHURTER 6182.0021 carries cCSAus, UL, and VDE approvals. SCHURTER 6600.4330 carries CCC, cULus, and ENEC approvals. Qualtek 716W-15/15 carries CCC, CSA, TUV, and UL approvals. Select based on your target market regulatory requirements.
