Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the F1100AA06 are identified based on the following critical parameters:

• Filter Type & Configuration: Single-phase, single-stage topology
• Voltage Rating: 250VAC operation capability
• Current Rating: 6A or higher capacity
• Frequency Range: 50/60Hz compatibility
• Mounting & Termination: Chassis mount with quick connect interface
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and recognized approval agencies (CE, CSA, TUV, ENEC, UR, VDE)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: the FN2010-6-06 from Schaffner EMC Inc. and the 851-05/005 from Qualtek. The FN2010-6-06 provides direct parameter alignment at 250VAC and 6A. The 851-05/005 operates at both 115V and 250VAC with a 5A rating, representing a lower current capacity but maintaining voltage compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FN2010-6-06 (Schaffner EMC Inc.) provides the closest functional equivalence to the F1100AA06. Both parts share identical voltage (250VAC) and current (6A) ratings with matching chassis-mount quick-connect configurations. The FN2010-6-06 extends frequency operation to DC ~ 400Hz, providing broader application compatibility. All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and recognition by major approval agencies (CSA, ENEC, UR certification for Schaffner).

851-05/005 (Qualtek) operates at reduced current capacity (5A versus 6A) but supports dual voltage operation (115V and 250VAC). This part is suitable for applications where the 5A current rating is sufficient and dual-voltage flexibility is beneficial. Qualtek certification includes CSA, UR, and VDE approval.

Selection between these substitutes depends on application current requirements and frequency operating range. The FN2010-6-06 is preferred for direct replacement in 6A, 250VAC applications. The 851-05/005 is appropriate for lower-current designs or systems requiring 115V operation capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 851-05/005 replace the F1100AA06 in all applications?

A: The 851-05/005 has a lower current rating (5A versus 6A). It is suitable only for applications where the actual load current does not exceed 5A. If your system requires the full 6A capacity, the FN2010-6-06 is the appropriate substitute.

Q: What is the significance of the frequency range difference between F1100AA06 and FN2010-6-06?

A: The F1100AA06 operates at 50/60Hz, while the FN2010-6-06 operates from DC to 400Hz. The extended frequency range of the FN2010-6-06 provides compatibility with a broader range of power sources and applications, including variable frequency drives and DC supplies.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The F1100AA06, FN2010-6-06, and 851-05/005 are all ROHS3 compliant, meeting environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Do packaging differences affect substitution?

A: The F1100AA06 and FN2010-6-06 are supplied in box packaging, while the 851-05/005 is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility; it relates only to handling, storage, and logistics.

Q: Which approval certifications are most critical for my application?

A: Approval requirements depend on your target market and application. All three parts carry CSA certification. The F1100AA06 includes CE and TUV; the FN2010-6-06 includes ENEC and UR; the 851-05/005 includes UR and VDE. Verify that the selected part meets the specific certifications required by your application standards and regional regulations.
