SCHURTER 6183.0013 IEC 320-2-2/J Power Entry Connector Receptacle — Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SCHURTER 6183.0013 is a power entry connector receptacle with IEC 320-2-2/J configuration, rated for 16A at 250VAC. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent models for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The part features panel mount flange installation, quick connect termination, and UL94 V-0 material flammability rating with IP40 ingress protection.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: connector style (IEC 320-2-2/J), connector type (receptacle, female sockets), current rating (16A), voltage rating (250VAC), number of positions (3), termination type (quick connect 0.250"), and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0).

The primary distinction between the main part and substitute parts is the mounting mechanism. The 6183.0013 uses panel mount flange installation, while both substitute parts employ panel mount snap-in configuration. This difference affects panel cutout dimensions and installation procedure but does not alter electrical performance or connector interface compatibility.

Both substitute parts maintain active product status and full compliance with applicable regulatory standards, making them suitable for direct replacement in applications where the snap-in mounting method is compatible with the panel design.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 6183.0001 and 4797.0020 are active products with full regulatory compliance suitable for replacing the obsolete 6183.0013. Selection between these two substitutes depends on panel thickness compatibility and regional certification requirements.

The 6183.0001 maintains identical ingress protection rating (IP40) and approval agencies (cURus, VDE) as the original part, with panel thickness tolerance of 0.059" (1.50mm). This part is recommended for applications requiring direct compliance alignment with the original specification.

The 4797.0020 supports panel thickness up to 0.079" (2.00mm) and includes additional regional certification (CCC, ENEC) beyond the original approvals. This part is suitable for applications with thicker panel requirements or where expanded certification scope is beneficial.

Both substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, addressing modern regulatory requirements not specified in the original part documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 6183.0001 or 4797.0020 be used as direct replacements for 6183.0013?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible as direct replacements. The primary difference is the mounting mechanism: the original uses flange mounting, while both substitutes use snap-in mounting. Panel cutout dimensions differ slightly and must be verified against your panel design. Both maintain the same electrical ratings (16A, 250VAC), connector interface (IEC 320-2-2/J), and termination type (quick connect 0.250").

Q: What is the difference between flange and snap-in mounting?

A: Flange mounting (6183.0013) uses a mounting flange that secures the connector to the panel exterior. Snap-in mounting (6183.0001, 4797.0020) uses internal locking tabs that secure the connector from the panel interior. Snap-in mounting typically requires less panel preparation and provides faster installation. Panel cutout dimensions and thickness tolerances differ between these mounting styles.

Q: Which substitute part should I select for my application?

A: If your panel thickness is 0.059" (1.50mm) or less, use 6183.0001. If your panel thickness is up to 0.079" (2.00mm), either part is suitable, though 4797.0020 is optimized for thicker panels. If your application requires IP40 ingress protection certification, 6183.0001 explicitly specifies this rating. If your market requires CCC or ENEC certification, 4797.0020 provides these additional approvals.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the substitute parts?

A: Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The 6183.0001 maintains the original approval agencies (cURus, VDE) with IP40 ingress protection explicitly specified. The 4797.0020 includes additional certifications (CCC, ENEC) and does not specify ingress protection rating. Both parts carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Electrical and connector interface compatibility is complete. Panel mounting compatibility requires verification of panel thickness and cutout dimensions. The 6183.0001 cutout is 37.40mm x 29.20mm; the 4797.0020 cutout is 37.60mm x 29.50mm. Both differ from the original 38.00mm x 29.20mm. Verify your panel design accommodates the selected substitute's cutout dimensions before implementation.
