The FCE17C37PM650 is active in production with RoHS Compliant status, making it the preferred choice for new designs and legacy system replacements. Current inventory is 920 units.

09670375604 and 09670375615 (HARTING)

These HARTING connectors provide extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and higher current capacity (7.5A) compared to the original part. Both are ROHS3 Compliant and active in production. The 09670375604 is packaged in bulk with 1109 units in stock. The 09670375615 is also bulk packaged with 885 units available. These parts are suitable for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance.

09672375604 and 09672375615 (HARTING)

These HARTING connectors provide current ratings of 6.5A and maintain the original operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C). The 09672375604 is tray packaged with 1156 units in stock and features stamped contact form. The 09672375615 is bulk packaged with 758 units available. Both are ROHS3 Compliant and active in production.

M24308/3-4F (Cinch Connectivity Solutions)

The M24308/3-4F is a military-grade D-Sub connector conforming to MIL-C-24308 specification. It provides extended operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 125°C) and higher contact finish thickness (50.0µin). This part is active in production with 1207 units in stock. The M24308/3-4F is RoHS non-compliant and suitable for legacy military and aerospace applications requiring MIL-spec compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17C37PM650 directly replace the FCC17C37PM650?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37PM650 is a direct functional equivalent. Both parts share identical connector style, position count, termination method, current rating, and operating temperature range. The FCE17C37PM650 is active in production and RoHS Compliant, making it the recommended replacement for the obsolete FCC17C37PM650.

Q: What is the difference between the HARTING 09670375604 and 09672375604 models?

A: Both are 37-position D-Sub solder cup plugs from HARTING. The primary differences are current rating (7.5A vs. 6.5A), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C), contact form (machined vs. stamped), and packaging (bulk vs. tray). The 09670375604 is suitable for higher-temperature applications, while the 09672375604 matches the original operating temperature range.

Q: Are the HARTING parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All HARTING substitute parts (09670375604, 09670375615, 09672375604, 09672375615) are ROHS3 Compliant. The original FCC17C37PM650 and the military-grade M24308/3-4F are RoHS non-compliant.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and tray packaging?

A: Packaging format affects handling and storage. Bulk packaging (used by 09670375604, 09670375615, 09672375615, and M24308/3-4F) is suitable for high-volume assembly operations. Tray packaging (used by 09672375604) provides organized component presentation and is common in automated pick-and-place environments. Both packaging formats contain the same connector specifications.

Q: Can I use the M24308/3-4F in commercial applications?

A: The M24308/3-4F is a military-specification connector suitable for both military and commercial applications. It provides extended operating temperature range and higher contact finish thickness. However, it is RoHS non-compliant, which may restrict use in applications requiring RoHS compliance. For RoHS-compliant applications, use FCE17C37PM650 or HARTING alternatives.

Q: What is the voltage rating for the substitute parts?

A: The original FCC17C37PM650 specifies 200V. Substitute parts from HARTING and M24308/3-4F do not specify voltage rating in the provided data. The FCE17C37PM650 does not specify voltage rating. For applications requiring specific voltage ratings, contact the manufacturer for detailed electrical specifications.

Q: Are all substitute parts rated for the same current as the original?

A: No. The original FCC17C37PM650 is rated at 5A. The HARTING 09670375604 and 09670375615 are rated at 7.5A. The HARTING 09672375604 and 09672375615 are rated at 6.5A. The M24308/3-4F is rated at 5A. Higher current ratings provide additional design margin and are backward compatible with 5A applications.

Q: What contact material is used in each substitute part?

A: The original FCC17C37PM650 uses Phosphor Bronze contacts. The FCE17C37PM650 also uses Phosphor Bronze. The HARTING parts (09670375604, 09670375615, 09672375604, 09672375615) use Copper Alloy contacts. The M24308/3-4F uses Brass contacts. All contact materials are suitable for signal-level applications.

Q: Which substitute part has the widest operating temperature range?

A: The M24308/3-4F provides the widest operating temperature range at -65°C ~ 125°C. The HARTING 09670375604 and 09670375615 provide -55°C ~ 125°C. The FCE17C37PM650, 09672375604, and 09672375615 maintain the original range of -40°C ~ 85°C.
