TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 6ED2 Power Entry Connector Receptacle

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 6ED2 is an AC power entry connector receptacle designed for IEC 320-C14 panel mount applications. This filtered power entry module integrates EMI and RFI filtering for commercial applications, providing a complete power inlet solution with quick connect termination. The product is currently active in production with 911 units in stock. Alternative models may be required due to inventory constraints, specific panel cutout requirements, or regional approval agency preferences.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 6ED2 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Style: IEC 320-C14
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Male Blades
• Number of Positions: 3
• Filter Type: Filtered (EMI, RFI) - Commercial
• Current Rating - Filter: 6A
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Flange, Right Angle
• Termination: Quick Connect - 0.250" (6.3mm)
• Accommodates a Fuse: No

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Panel Cutout Dimensions (within mechanical design constraints)
• Approval Agencies (regional certifications)
• Material Flammability Rating (when specified)
• Ingress Protection rating (when specified)

The Schaffner EMC Inc. FN9226-6-06 qualifies as a substitute based on matching all mandatory parameters. Variations in panel cutout dimensions and approval agencies reflect design differences that do not affect functional compatibility in applications where the 6ED2 was originally specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection - TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 6ED2: The 6ED2 is the original specified component with active production status and CSA, UL, and VDE certifications. This part is suitable for applications requiring VDE approval in European markets and maintains the exact panel cutout dimensions of 30.48mm x 22.86mm.

Substitute Selection - Schaffner EMC Inc. FN9226-6-06: The FN9226-6-06 is functionally equivalent and maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. This substitute carries CSA, ENEC, SEMKO, and UL certifications, providing broader European market approval through ENEC and SEMKO designations. The panel cutout dimensions differ (34.40mm x 22.60mm), requiring panel modification or redesign. The FN9226-6-06 includes UL94 V-2 material flammability rating and IP40 ingress protection specification. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Selection between these parts depends on panel cutout compatibility and regional certification requirements. Both parts are active products with adequate inventory availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FN9226-6-06 be used as a direct replacement for the 6ED2 without any modifications?

A: The FN9226-6-06 is electrically and functionally equivalent to the 6ED2. However, the panel cutout dimensions differ: the 6ED2 requires 30.48mm x 22.86mm, while the FN9226-6-06 requires 34.40mm x 22.60mm. Panel modification is necessary if the existing cutout cannot accommodate the larger width of the substitute part.

Q: What are the critical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Substitution requires matching of connector style (IEC 320-C14), connector type (Receptacle, Male Blades), number of positions (3), filter type (Filtered EMI/RFI Commercial), filter current rating (6A), mounting type (Panel Mount, Flange, Right Angle), termination style (Quick Connect 0.250"), and fuse accommodation (No).

Q: Are there differences in approval agencies between these parts?

A: Yes. The 6ED2 carries CSA, UL, and VDE certifications. The FN9226-6-06 carries CSA, ENEC, SEMKO, and UL certifications. The FN9226-6-06 provides additional European market approvals through ENEC and SEMKO, while the 6ED2 includes VDE approval. Both parts meet UL and CSA standards.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The 6ED2 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the FN9226-6-06 is supplied in Tray packaging. This affects handling, storage, and inventory management but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts have the same current and voltage ratings?

A: Both parts are rated for 6A at the filter stage. The 6ED2 specifies 120/250VAC appliance inlet rating. The FN9226-6-06 does not provide explicit appliance inlet voltage specification in the available data, though it maintains the same 6A filter current rating and IEC 320-C14 connector standard.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 6ED2 and FN9226-6-06 are ROHS3 compliant. The FN9226-6-06 additionally specifies UL94 V-2 material flammability rating and IP40 ingress protection.
