6EDL1SM Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 6EDL1SM is an AC power entry connector receptacle manufactured by TE Connectivity Corcom Filters. This component functions as a Power Entry Module with IEC 320-C14 panel mount configuration, integrating filtered EMI/RFI suppression, an on-off switch, and a twin fused holder. The 6EDL1SM is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. Substitute parts must maintain functional compatibility with the IEC 320-C14 connector standard while preserving electrical filtering and safety characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 6EDL1SM is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Connector Style: IEC 320-C14 (mandatory)
• Connector Type: Receptacle, Male Blades - Module (mandatory)
• Number of Positions: 3 (mandatory)
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Flange (mandatory)
• Filter Type: Filtered (EMI, RFI) - Commercial (mandatory)
• Switch Features: Switch On-Off (mandatory)
• Accommodates a Fuse: Yes (mandatory)

Secondary Compatibility Criteria:

• Current Rating - Filter: 6A (baseline specification)
• Fuse Holder Configuration: Twin Fused (baseline specification)

Allowable Variations:

• Current Rating - Appliance Inlet: May exceed 6A (backward compatible)
• Voltage Rating - Appliance Inlet: May exceed 120/250VAC (backward compatible)
• Termination Type: May differ if mechanical and electrical interface remains compatible
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: May vary within functional tolerance
• Approval Agencies: May include additional certifications beyond original

Three substitute parts meet these criteria: B84776A0006A000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics), FN388-6-22 (Schaffner EMC Inc.), and PE880206 (Curtis Industries).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

B84776A0006A000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics)

This substitute is active in production and carries enhanced current rating of 10A at the appliance inlet, exceeding the 6EDL1SM baseline of 6A. The component maintains 6A filter current rating and commercial EMI/RFI filtering. Voltage rating extends to 250VAC/DC. Termination differs at 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect versus the original 0.110" (2.8mm), requiring panel layout verification. Fuse holder configuration is single rather than twin fused. Certifications include cUL, ENEC, and UL. REACH compliance status is affected. This part is suitable for applications where higher current capacity and extended voltage tolerance are acceptable and termination modification is feasible.

FN388-6-22 (Schaffner EMC Inc.)

This substitute is active in production within the FN 380 series. Current and voltage ratings for the appliance inlet are not specified in available documentation. Filter current rating is confirmed at 6A with commercial EMI/RFI filtering. Termination is solder eyelet rather than quick connect, requiring circuit board design modification. Fuse holder maintains twin fused configuration. Panel thickness accommodation is specified at 0.031" to 0.126" (0.79mm to 3.20mm). Material flammability rating is UL94 V-2. Ingress protection is IP40. Certifications include CSA, UL, and VDE. REACH status is unaffected. This part is suitable for applications where solder termination is preferred and IP40 ingress protection is required.

PE880206 (Curtis Industries)

This substitute is active in production within the PE8 series. Current rating matches the original at 6A appliance inlet with 250VAC voltage rating. Filter current rating is not specified. Termination matches the original at 0.110" (2.8mm) quick connect. Fuse holder maintains twin fused configuration. Panel cutout dimensions are rectangular at 28.50mm x 55.90mm, matching the original specification. Certifications include CE, CSA, TUV, and UL. REACH status is unaffected. Moisture sensitivity level is not applicable. This part provides the closest functional and mechanical alignment to the 6EDL1SM and is suitable for direct replacement in existing panel designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can B84776A0006A000 be used as a direct replacement for 6EDL1SM?

A: B84776A0006A000 maintains all mandatory compatibility criteria including IEC 320-C14 connector style, receptacle male blades module type, 3-position configuration, panel mount flange mounting, and commercial EMI/RFI filtering with on-off switch. However, termination differs at 0.250" (6.3mm) versus 0.110" (2.8mm), and fuse holder is single rather than twin fused. Panel layout and circuit board modifications are required.

Q: What is the primary difference between FN388-6-22 and the original 6EDL1SM?

A: FN388-6-22 uses solder eyelet termination instead of quick connect, requiring circuit board design changes. Appliance inlet current and voltage ratings are not specified for this part. IP40 ingress protection and UL94 V-2 material flammability rating are specified features not documented for the original. Panel thickness accommodation range is 0.031" to 0.126" (0.79mm to 3.20mm).

Q: Is PE880206 a suitable direct replacement for 6EDL1SM?

A: PE880206 provides the closest functional and mechanical compatibility. Current rating, voltage rating, termination type, fuse holder configuration, and panel cutout dimensions all match or closely align with the original 6EDL1SM specifications. Quick connect termination at 0.110" (2.8mm) and rectangular panel cutout at 28.50mm x 55.90mm enable direct panel integration without modification.

Q: What are the key differences in current ratings among the substitute parts?

A: The 6EDL1SM and PE880206 both specify 6A appliance inlet current rating. B84776A0006A000 specifies 10A appliance inlet current rating, providing higher capacity. FN388-6-22 does not specify appliance inlet current rating in available documentation. All parts maintain 6A filter current rating except PE880206, which does not specify filter current rating.

Q: How do termination types affect part selection?

A: The 6EDL1SM uses quick connect 0.110" (2.8mm) termination. PE880206 maintains this termination type, enabling direct panel integration. B84776A0006A000 uses quick connect 0.250" (6.3mm) termination, requiring panel hole modification. FN388-6-22 uses solder eyelet termination, requiring circuit board design changes and assembly process modification.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The 6EDL1SM is RoHS Compliant. All three substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant, representing an enhanced compliance standard. ROHS3 compliance is backward compatible with RoHS requirements.

Q: What certifications should be considered when selecting a substitute?

A: The 6EDL1SM carries CSA, SEMKO, SEV, UL, and VDE certifications. B84776A0006A000 carries cUL, ENEC, and UL certifications. FN388-6-22 carries CSA, UL, and VDE certifications. PE880206 carries CE, CSA, TUV, and UL certifications. Application requirements and regional regulatory standards determine which certification set is appropriate.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?

A: B84776A0006A000 has 818 pieces in stock. FN388-6-22 has 651 pieces in stock. PE880206 has 983 pieces in stock. All substitute parts are classified as active products in current production.

Q: Does fuse holder configuration affect part compatibility?

A: The 6EDL1SM uses twin fused configuration. PE880206 and FN388-6-22 maintain twin fused configuration. B84776A0006A000 uses single fuse holder configuration. Twin fused configuration provides dual-channel protection; single fuse holder provides single-channel protection. Application safety requirements determine whether this difference is acceptable.
