Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: 1-6609006-0

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 1-6609006-0 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 6EEA2. This part maintains active product status and provides complete electrical and mechanical equivalence. Both components share identical current ratings (6A), voltage ratings (120/250VAC), connector configuration (IEC 320-C14 receptacle with male blades), mounting specifications (panel mount, flange, right angle), and termination type (quick connect 0.250"). Regulatory compliance is identical across CSA, UL, and VDE certifications, with both parts meeting ROHS3 requirements. The 1-6609006-0 is available in bulk packaging with 1050 units in stock.

Secondary Recommendation: 6ED2

The TE Connectivity Corcom Filters 6ED2 provides equivalent electrical and mechanical performance to the 6EEA2 with active product status. This part maintains the same 6A current rating, 120/250VAC voltage rating, IEC 320-C14 connector style, and quick connect termination. Regulatory approvals (CSA, UL, VDE) and ROHS3 compliance are identical. The 6ED2 is available in bulk packaging with 911 units in stock. Panel cutout dimensions match the primary recommendation at 30.48mm x 22.86mm.

Alternative Consideration: FN9226-6-06

The Schaffner EMC Inc. FN9226-6-06 provides functional equivalence for IEC 320-C14 panel mount applications with filtered EMI/RFI protection at 6A filter rating. This part maintains the same connector style, mounting configuration, and quick connect termination. Regulatory approvals include CSA, UL, and additional certifications (ENEC, SEMKO). The FN9226-6-06 offers enhanced ingress protection (IP40) and material flammability rating (UL94 V-2). Panel cutout dimensions differ at 34.40mm x 22.60mm, requiring panel modification for installation. Appliance inlet current and voltage ratings are not specified for this part. The FN9226-6-06 is available in tray packaging with 1229 units in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-6609006-0 directly replace the obsolete 6EEA2 without modification?

A: Yes. The 1-6609006-0 maintains identical electrical ratings (6A, 120/250VAC), connector configuration (IEC 320-C14 receptacle, male blades), mounting type (panel mount, flange, right angle), and termination method (quick connect 0.250").
