Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 6609050-2 is determined by the following critical parameters: single phase filter type, 250VAC rated voltage, 10A current rating, 50/60Hz operating frequency, chassis mount configuration, and quick connect termination. These parameters define the functional and mechanical compatibility requirements for direct substitution.

The substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Manufacturer Recommended Substitute: Parts that meet or exceed the electrical specifications while offering active product status and improved availability.

Similar Equivalent Parts: Parts that maintain core electrical parameters (250VAC, 10A, 50/60Hz, single phase, chassis mount, quick connect) but may differ in configuration stage count, inductance values, or operating temperature ranges. These parts are functionally compatible for the specified application parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

2-6609037-6 (TE Connectivity Corcom Filters): This is the manufacturer recommended substitute. It maintains the same 250VAC rating, operating frequency, and temperature range as the original part. The 12A current rating exceeds the 10A requirement, providing operational margin. The two stage configuration differs from the three stage original design but maintains equivalent EMC/EMI filtering performance for general purpose applications. This part carries identical CSA, UR, and VDE approvals and is currently in active production status with 1144 units in stock.

AMI-M12D-1-10-B (Altran Magnetics, LLC): This part matches the exact 10A current rating and 250VAC voltage specification. It maintains the same operating temperature range and quick connect termination. The single stage configuration represents a reduction in filtering stages compared to the original three stage design. This part is active and available with 709 units in stock. No approval agency certifications are specified for this part.

F1400AA10 (Curtis Industries): This part provides exact electrical parameter matching at 10A and 250VAC with 50/60Hz operation. The two stage configuration offers intermediate filtering complexity. This part carries CE, CSA, TUV, and UR approvals, exceeding the original part's certification set. Operating temperature is not specified. This part is active with 1138 units in stock.

FN2080-10-06 (Schaffner EMC Inc.): This part supports dual voltage operation at 110V and 250VAC, providing broader application flexibility. The 10A current rating and quick connect termination match the original specification. The operating frequency range extends to DC and 400Hz, exceeding the 50/60Hz requirement. The operating temperature range of -25°C to 100°C exceeds the original specification. This part carries CSA, ENEC, and UR approvals and is active with 1332 units in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-6609037-6 substitute for the 6609050-2 in all applications?

A: The 2-6609037-6 is the manufacturer recommended substitute and maintains the same voltage, frequency, temperature range, and approval certifications. The 12A current rating exceeds the 10A requirement. The two stage configuration differs from the three stage original, but both are designed for general purpose EMC/EMI filtering at 250VAC. Electrical compatibility is established through the manufacturer recommendation.

Q: What is the difference between the three stage and two stage configurations?

A: Configuration stage count refers to the number of filtering stages in the EMC/EMI filter design. The original 6609050-2 features three stages, while the 2-6609037-6 features two stages. Both configurations are designed to attenuate electromagnetic interference across the specified frequency range. The stage count difference does not prevent functional substitution for general purpose applications.

Q: Why does the FN2080-10-06 have a wider operating frequency range?

A: The FN2080-10-06 is specified for DC to 400Hz operation, compared to the 50/60Hz specification of the original part. This extended frequency range indicates the filter is designed to operate across a broader spectrum of input conditions. For applications requiring only 50/60Hz operation, this extended capability does not prevent substitution.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, all substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the original 6609050-2.

Q: What approval certifications should I prioritize when selecting a substitute?

A: The original 6609050-2 carries CSA, UR, and VDE approvals. The 2-6609037-6 maintains these identical certifications. The F1400AA10 carries CE, CSA, TUV, and UR approvals. The FN2080-10-06 carries CSA, ENEC, and UR approvals. The AMI-M12D-1-10-B does not specify approval agency certifications. Selection should be based on the approval requirements of your specific application and regional standards.

Q: What is the significance of the inductance values listed for each part?

A: Inductance values are provided for the parts where specified. The original 6609050-2 has 7.178mH inductance. The 2-6609037-6 has 7.88mH, the AMI-M12D-1-10-B has 7.83mH, and the FN2080-10-06 has 4.5mH. These values represent the filter's inductive characteristics. The F1400AA10 does not specify an inductance value. Inductance differences may affect filtering performance characteristics across different frequency ranges.

Q: Can I use the AMI-M12D-1-10-B as a direct replacement without any considerations?

A: The AMI-M12D-1-10-B matches the 10A current rating and 250VAC voltage specification with identical operating temperature range and quick connect termination. However, this part does not specify approval agency certifications, whereas the original part carries CSA, UR, and VDE approvals. The single stage configuration also differs from the three stage original design. Substitution suitability depends on whether your application requires the specific certifications and filtering characteristics of the original part.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: The 2-6609037-6 is supplied in Bulk packaging. The AMI-M12D-1-10-B is supplied in Box packaging. The F1400AA10 is supplied in Box packaging. The FN2080-10-06 is supplied in Tray packaging. Packaging selection may affect procurement quantities and handling requirements for your application.
