Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Recommended Primary Substitutes)

The FCE17A15PC4EB, FCE17A15PC40B, FCE17A15PC41B, FCE17A15PC44B, FCE17A15PC45B, FCE17A15PC48B, FCE17A15PC49B, and FCE17A15PC4DB are active production equivalents from Amphenol ICC. All FCE17 variants maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility with the obsolete FCC17A15PC4EB across all critical parameters including connector configuration, current rating, operating temperature, and flammability rating.

The primary advantage of FCE17 series substitution is RoHS compliance. All FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, whereas the FCC17A15PC4EB is RoHS non-compliant. This compliance status is significant for applications subject to RoHS regulations in the European Union and equivalent jurisdictions.

Dielectric material composition differs between the FCC17A15PC4EB (standard thermoplastic) and FCE17 variants (thermoplastic with glass fill). Glass-filled dielectric materials provide enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability. This material upgrade does not compromise functional compatibility.

HARTING Alternatives (Secondary Substitutes)

The HARTING parts 09652236801 and 09652636810 provide functional equivalence with parameter variations that require engineering evaluation for specific applications.

Part 09652236801 features a Housing/Shell M3 flange design and 0.409" backset spacing, compared to the Board Side 4-40 flange and 0.590" backset spacing of the FCC17A15PC4EB. The current rating is 6.5A, exceeding the 5A rating of the original part. Operating temperature range extends to -55°C ~ 125°C, providing broader environmental capability than the -40°C ~ 85°C range of the FCC17A15PC4EB.

Part 09652636810 includes a Board Lock feature and unthreaded Housing/Shell flange. This variant shares the same current rating, operating temperature range, and backset spacing differences as 09652236801.

HARTING parts are ROHS3 compliant and feature copper alloy contacts instead of phosphor bronze. Contact finish specifications are not provided for HARTING alternatives.

Selection between Amphenol ICC FCE17 series and HARTING alternatives depends on flange feature compatibility with existing board designs and mechanical mounting requirements. Amphenol ICC FCE17 series maintains identical flange geometry and backset spacing, enabling direct mechanical substitution. HARTING alternatives require board-level design verification due to flange and spacing differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17A15PC4EB directly replace FCC17A15PC4EB without board redesign?

A: Yes. The FCE17A15PC4EB maintains identical electrical and mechanical parameters including connector configuration, current rating, operating temperature range, backset spacing (0.590"), and Board Side 4-40 flange feature. Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is supported without board redesign.

Q: What is the difference between FCC17A15PC4EB and FCE17 series variants?

A: The FCC17A15PC4EB is obsolete, while all FCE17 variants are active production parts. All FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, whereas FCC17A15PC4EB is RoHS non-compliant. Dielectric material differs: FCC17A15PC4EB uses standard thermoplastic, while FCE17 variants use thermoplastic with glass fill. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent.

Q: Are all FCE17 variants electrically and mechanically identical?

A: Yes. All FCE17 variants (FCE17A15PC4EB, FCE17A15PC40B, FCE17A15PC41B, FCE17A15PC44B, FCE17A15PC45B, FCE17A15PC48B, FCE17A15PC49B, and FCE17A15PC4DB) maintain identical electrical ratings, mechanical configuration, and flange geometry. Variants differ only in internal design specifications not affecting functional compatibility.

Q: Can HARTING parts 09652236801 or 09652636810 replace FCC17A15PC4EB?

A: HARTING parts provide functional equivalence with mechanical differences requiring evaluation. Both HARTING parts feature different flange geometry (Housing/Shell M3 or unthreaded versus Board Side 4-40) and reduced backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"). These differences may require board-level design modifications. HARTING parts offer higher current rating (6.5A versus 5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C).

Q: What does RoHS compliance mean for connector selection?

A: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance indicates the part does not contain restricted substances including lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, or polybrominated diphenyl ethers. RoHS compliance is required for products sold in the European Union and equivalent markets. FCE17 series parts are RoHS compliant; FCC17A15PC4EB is not.

Q: Does glass-filled dielectric material affect electrical performance?

A: Glass-filled thermoplastic dielectric material provides enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability compared to standard thermoplastic. Electrical performance characteristics including dielectric strength and insulation resistance remain within equivalent specifications. Glass-filled material does not compromise functional compatibility.

Q: What is backset spacing and why does it matter?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the connector mounting face to the rear of the connector body. FCC17A15PC4EB and all FCE17 variants specify 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing. HARTING alternatives specify 0.409" (10.40mm). Backset spacing affects board layout and component clearance. Substitution with different backset spacing requires board-level design verification.

Q: What is the flange feature and how does it affect substitution?

A: The flange feature is the mounting interface between the connector and the circuit board. FCC17A15PC4EB and FCE17 variants use Board Side 4-40 flange design with threaded mounting holes. HARTING 09652236801 uses Housing/Shell M3 flange; 09652636810 uses unthreaded Housing/Shell flange. Flange design differences affect mounting method and board hole pattern. Direct substitution requires identical flange geometry.

Q: Is FCE17A15PC49B available in different packaging?

A: Yes. FCE17A15PC49B is specified with Box packaging, while other FCE17 variants do not specify packaging type. Packaging differences do not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Selection between packaging options depends on inventory management and handling requirements.

Q: What is the contact material difference between Amphenol and HARTING parts?

A: FCC17A15PC4EB and all FCE17 variants use phosphor bronze contacts. HARTING parts 09652236801 and 09652636810 use copper alloy contacts. Both materials provide equivalent electrical conductivity and contact reliability for signal applications. Contact material selection does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Can I use HARTING 09652636810 instead of 09652236801?

A: Both HARTING parts maintain equivalent electrical specifications and current rating. The primary difference is the Board Lock feature on 09652636810, which provides additional mechanical retention. Selection depends on application requirements for mechanical locking. Both parts share identical backset spacing and flange differences relative to Amphenol parts.
