AFD50-12-10SN Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AFD50-12-10SN is a 10-position circular connector receptacle manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. This component features female sockets with crimp termination, panel mount configuration with bayonet lock fastening, and is designed for applications in aviation, automotive, and military environments. The connector is rated for 7.5A current and operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 200°C.

This part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute components that maintain functional and mechanical compatibility while meeting the same electrical and environmental specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AFD50-12-10SN are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• 10-position configuration
• Shell size 12-10
• Panel mount with flange mounting feature
• Bayonet lock fastening
• Normal orientation

Electrical Compatibility:

• Crimp termination method
• Female socket receptacle type
• 7.5A current rating capability
• -55°C to 200°C operating temperature range
• Environment resistant ingress protection

Material Specifications:

• Aluminum shell construction
• Plastic insert material
• Copper alloy contacts

The substitute parts PV70L12-10SL and PV70W12-10SL are classified as receptacle housings manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC. These components share identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the AFD50-12-10SN across all critical parameters. The primary differences are in shell finish (electroless nickel or chromate over cadmium) and housing color, which do not affect functional compatibility. Both substitute parts are supplied as housings without contacts included, requiring separate procurement of crimp contacts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AFD50-12-10SN Status: This component is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Current inventory of 680 pieces is available through existing stock channels only.

PV70L12-10SL and PV70W12-10SL Status: Both substitute parts are active products with confirmed inventory availability (1095 and 1032 pieces respectively). Both are manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC and maintain full compliance with the same regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, RoHS non-compliant, MSL 1).

Selection Basis:

The PV70L12-10SL and PV70W12-10SL are functionally equivalent to the AFD50-12-10SN across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection between these two substitute options depends on application-specific requirements regarding shell finish and housing color:

• PV70L12-10SL: Electroless nickel finish with silver housing color
• PV70W12-10SL: Chromate over cadmium finish with olive drab housing color

Both parts are supplied as receptacle housings without contacts included. Crimp contacts must be procured separately and are compatible with contact size 20 specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PV70L12-10SL or PV70W12-10SL be used as direct replacements for AFD50-12-10SN?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, shell size, mounting configuration, fastening type, operating temperature range, and current rating capability.

Q: What is the difference between PV70L12-10SL and PV70W12-10SL?

A: The primary differences are shell finish and housing color. PV70L12-10SL features electroless nickel finish with silver housing, while PV70W12-10SL features chromate over cadmium finish with olive drab housing. Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Are contacts included with the substitute parts?

A: No. Both PV70L12-10SL and PV70W12-10SL are supplied as receptacle housings without contacts. Crimp contacts compatible with contact size 20 must be procured separately.

Q: Do the substitute parts support the same current rating?

A: The substitute parts are rated for crimp termination with contact size 20, which supports the same 7.5A current rating as the AFD50-12-10SN.

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

A: No. All three parts share identical RoHS status (non-compliant), ECCN classification (EAR99), and Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 - Unlimited).

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the substitute parts?

A: Both substitute parts operate across -55°C to 200°C, matching the AFD50-12-10SN specification.

Q: Can these connectors be used in aviation, automotive, and military applications?

A: Yes. The substitute parts maintain the same environment-resistant ingress protection and material specifications suitable for these application categories.
