6EDL1SCM Power Entry Module Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 6EDL1SCM is a power entry connector receptacle module manufactured by TE Connectivity Corcom Filters. This IEC 320-C14 panel mount component functions as a filtered AC power inlet with integrated switch and fuse holder for commercial applications. The product is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for new designs and ongoing system support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 6EDL1SCM is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector style: IEC 320-C14
• Connector type: Receptacle, Male Blades - Module
• Mounting configuration: Panel Mount, Snap-In
• Position count: 3
• Filter classification: Filtered (EMI, RFI) - Commercial
• Switch functionality: On-Off capability
• Fuse holder type: Twin Fused
• Panel thickness accommodation: 0.031" ~ 0.126" (0.79mm ~ 3.20mm) minimum overlap

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

• Termination method compatibility with system requirements
• Current rating sufficiency for application
• Voltage rating adequacy for application
• Regulatory approval alignment with target markets

The substitute parts FN382-6-22 and PE820206 satisfy all primary substitution criteria and maintain functional equivalence for IEC 320-C14 filtered power entry applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FN382-6-22 (Schaffner EMC Inc.): This substitute maintains full functional equivalence with the 6EDL1SCM across all primary substitution criteria. The FN382-6-22 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and carries CSA, UL, and VDE approvals. The termination method differs (Solder Eyelet versus Quick Connect), requiring circuit board layout modification. The filter current rating of 6A exceeds the original 4A specification, providing operational margin. This part is suitable for applications where solder termination is compatible with system design.

PE820206 (Curtis Industries): This substitute provides functional equivalence with identical connector style, mounting configuration, and fuse holder specification. The PE820206 is an active product with ROHS3 compliance and carries CE, CSA, TUV, and UL approvals. Termination is Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm), matching the original 6EDL1SCM specification and eliminating circuit board redesign requirements. The appliance inlet current rating of 6A and voltage rating of 250VAC accommodate the original 4A/120-250VAC specification. Panel thickness accommodation is 0.031" ~ 0.125", providing 0.001" less maximum thickness than the original. This part is suitable for direct replacement in applications utilizing quick connect termination.

Both substitutes satisfy regulatory requirements for target markets and maintain commercial-grade EMI/RFI filtering functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FN382-6-22 be used as a direct replacement for the 6EDL1SCM?

A: The FN382-6-22 provides functional equivalence across all primary substitution criteria: IEC 320-C14 connector style, receptacle configuration, panel mount snap-in mounting, 3-position count, commercial EMI/RFI filtering, on-off switch, and twin fused holder. However, termination differs (Solder Eyelet versus Quick Connect - 0.110"), requiring circuit board modification.

Q: Can the PE820206 be used as a direct replacement for the 6EDL1SCM?

A: The PE820206 provides functional equivalence and maintains identical termination method (Quick Connect - 0.110"), enabling direct replacement without circuit board redesign. All primary substitution criteria are satisfied: IEC 320-C14 connector style, receptacle configuration, panel mount snap-in mounting, 3-position count, commercial EMI/RFI filtering, on-off switch, and twin fused holder.

Q: What is the significance of the current rating difference between the 6EDL1SCM (4A) and the substitute parts?

A: The 6EDL1SCM specifies 4A appliance inlet current rating. The PE820206 provides 6A appliance inlet rating, and the FN382-6-22 provides 6A filter current rating. Higher current ratings indicate the substitute parts accommodate the original specification with operational margin. Application current requirements must not exceed the lowest rated component in the system.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: Yes. The 6EDL1SCM is supplied in standard packaging (not specified). The FN382-6-22 is supplied in Tray packaging. The PE820206 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging selection affects inventory management and component handling procedures.

Q: What regulatory approvals apply to each part?

A: The 6EDL1SCM carries CSA, SEMKO, SEV, UL, and VDE approvals. The FN382-6-22 carries CSA, UL, and VDE approvals. The PE820206 carries CE, CSA, TUV, and UL approvals. Application regulatory requirements determine which substitute is appropriate for specific markets.

Q: Is the panel thickness accommodation identical across all three parts?

A: The 6EDL1SCM and FN382-6-22 both accommodate 0.031" ~ 0.126" (0.79mm ~ 3.20mm) panel thickness. The PE820206 accommodates 0.031" ~ 0.125" (0.79mm ~ 3.18mm), providing 0.001" less maximum thickness. Applications requiring maximum panel thickness near 0.126" must use the 6EDL1SCM or FN382-6-22.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: The 6EDL1SCM is RoHS Compliant (original RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC). The FN382-6-22 and PE820206 are ROHS3 Compliant (RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU as amended). ROHS3 represents current regulatory requirements with expanded restricted substance scope. Both compliance levels are acceptable; ROHS3 represents current standard practice.
