Qualtek 723-30/63 AC Power Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Qualtek 723-30/63 is an IEC 320-C14 power entry connector receptacle module designed for panel-mount, snap-in installation. This component functions as a male-blade receptacle for AC power applications with a 10A/250VAC rating and integrated twin-fused fuse holder. The part is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility for replacement in existing designs or production continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 723-30/63 are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment:

Electrical Compatibility: All substitute parts maintain identical current (10A) and voltage (250VAC) ratings, connector style (IEC 320-C14), connector type (receptacle, male blades), and position count (3). All are unfiltered commercial-grade components with fuse accommodation capability.

Mechanical Compatibility: All substitutes feature panel-mount, snap-in installation with quick-connect 0.250" (6.3mm) termination. Panel cutout dimensions and thickness tolerances are specified for each part to ensure proper fit.

Regulatory Compliance: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification. Approval agencies vary by manufacturer but include CSA and UL certifications common to all options.

Product Status Consideration: The original 723-30/63 is obsolete. Active-status alternatives ensure ongoing component availability and supply chain continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute - Qualtek 723W-X2/04: This part is the manufacturer-recommended direct substitute, maintaining Qualtek series continuity. Active product status ensures supply availability. The variable panel thickness range (0.79mm ~ 2.00mm) provides greater installation flexibility compared to the fixed 3.00mm specification of the original part. CSA, TUV, and UL certifications support broad regulatory acceptance. Suitable for applications where panel thickness variation is acceptable.

Alternative Substitute - SCHURTER 6200.4330: This cross-manufacturer option provides equivalent electrical performance with enhanced ingress protection (IP40 rating). Panel cutout dimensions (27.50mm x 31.50mm) are marginally larger than the original (27.30mm x 31.12mm), requiring verification of existing panel cutout compatibility. Fixed panel thickness (3.00mm) matches the original specification. Broader approval agency coverage (CCC, CSA, ENEC, UL) supports international applications. Suitable for applications requiring enhanced environmental protection.

Selection Basis: Both substitutes maintain identical electrical ratings, connector configuration, and termination standards. Choice between them depends on panel thickness requirements and ingress protection needs. The Qualtek 723W-X2/04 is recommended for direct replacement in existing designs. The SCHURTER 6200.4330 is recommended for applications requiring IP40 environmental protection or international regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 723W-X2/04 be used as a direct replacement for the 723-30/63?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (10A/250VAC), connector style (IEC 320-C14), mounting method (panel mount, snap-in), and termination type (quick connect 0.250"). The 723W-X2/04 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. The variable panel thickness range of the 723W-X2/04 (0.79mm ~ 2.00mm) accommodates the original 3.00mm specification, making it compatible with existing panel cutouts.

Q: What are the key differences between the Qualtek 723W-X2/04 and SCHURTER 6200.4330?

A: Both maintain identical electrical specifications and connector configuration. Primary differences are: (1) Panel cutout dimensions—the SCHURTER part is 0.20mm larger in each dimension; (2) Ingress protection—the SCHURTER part provides IP40 rating while the Qualtek part does not specify this; (3) Panel thickness—the Qualtek part accommodates 0.79mm ~ 2.00mm while the SCHURTER part is fixed at 3.00mm; (4) Approval agencies—the SCHURTER part includes CCC and ENEC certifications in addition to CSA and UL.

Q: Are panel cutout dimensions critical for substitution?

A: Yes. The original 723-30/63 requires a rectangular cutout of 27.30mm x 31.12mm. The Qualtek 723W-X2/04 accommodates variable panel sizes, making it compatible with the original cutout. The SCHURTER 6200.4330 requires a slightly larger cutout (27.50mm x 31.50mm). Existing panel tooling must be verified before selecting the SCHURTER option.

Q: Do all substitutes support fuse accommodation?

A: Yes. All three parts accommodate fuses. The 723-30/63 and 723W-X2/04 feature twin-fused fuse holders. The SCHURTER 6200.4330 features a fuse holder configuration. All are supplied without fuses installed.

Q: What regulatory certifications apply to each part?

A: The 723-30/63 carries CSA, UL, and VDE approvals. The 723W-X2/04 carries CSA, TUV, and UL approvals. The SCHURTER 6200.4330 carries CCC, CSA, ENEC, and UL approvals. All three maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification.
