Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: FCE17C37SA6EB

The FCE17C37SA6EB from Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) is the direct active equivalent to the obsolete FCC17C37SA6EB. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. The FCE17 series represents the current production line replacement for the legacy FCC17 series. Selection of FCE17C37SA6EB eliminates compatibility risk and ensures long-term supply chain continuity.

Secondary Recommendations: HARTING 09664 Series

The HARTING 09664 series connectors (09664127600, 09664127601, 09664136602, 09664526611, 09664527610, 09664527611, 09664536611, 09664536612) provide functionally equivalent D-Sub 37 position receptacle solutions with enhanced electrical performance and extended operating temperature range. These parts deliver higher current ratings (6.5A to 7.5A versus 5A) and wider temperature operation (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C). All HARTING substitutes maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 classification. Selection among HARTING variants depends on specific flange feature requirements and board lock feature necessity.

Compliance Considerations

The FCC17C37SA6EB is RoHS non-compliant. All identified substitute parts (FCE17C37SA6EB and HARTING 09664 series) are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant, supporting regulatory requirements for new designs and procurement initiatives. HARTING parts additionally carry REACH Unaffected status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17C37SA6EB directly replace the FCC17C37SA6EB in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37SA6EB maintains identical connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, and termination method. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance. No design modification is required for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between Amphenol ICC and HARTING substitute options?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17C37SA6EB is the direct series replacement from the same manufacturer. HARTING 09664 series parts are functionally equivalent alternatives from a different manufacturer. HARTING parts offer higher current ratings (6.5A to 7.5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). Selection depends on whether the design requires the specific Amphenol ICC connector family or can accommodate alternative manufacturers.

Q: Are there differences in flange mounting features among the HARTING substitutes?

A: Yes. HARTING 09664 series parts vary in flange feature design: some feature 4-40 threaded mounting holes, others feature M3 threaded holes, and some feature unthreaded housings. Selection must match the specific mounting hole pattern required by the PCB or enclosure. Verify flange feature compatibility before selection.

Q: Do all substitute parts support the same current and voltage requirements?

A: The FCC17C37SA6EB is rated for 5A at 200V. The FCE17C37SA6EB maintains 5A rating. HARTING 09664 series parts provide 6.5A to 7.5A current capacity, exceeding the original specification. HARTING parts do not specify voltage rating in the provided data. For applications requiring the original 200V specification, the FCE17C37SA6EB is the appropriate selection.

Q: What is the significance of the Board Lock feature in HARTING parts?

A: The Board Lock feature is present in HARTING 09664526611, 09664527610, 09664527611, 09664536611, and 09664536612. This feature provides mechanical retention of the connector to the PCB. The original FCC17C37SA6EB does not specify this feature. Selection of Board Lock variants depends on application requirements for mechanical retention during assembly or field service.

Q: Are contact finish specifications identical across all substitutes?

A: The FCC17C37SA6EB specifies gold contact finish at 15.0µin thickness. The FCE17C37SA6EB maintains this specification. HARTING 09664 series parts do not specify contact finish in the provided data. For applications requiring specific contact finish specifications, the FCE17C37SA6EB is the recommended selection.

Q: What is the operating temperature range difference, and does it affect substitution?

A: The FCC17C37SA6EB operates from -40°C to 85°C. The FCE17C37SA6EB maintains this range. HARTING 09664 series parts operate from -55°C to 125°C, providing extended temperature capability. For applications operating within the original -40°C to 85°C range, all substitutes are acceptable. For applications requiring extended temperature operation, HARTING parts provide enhanced performance.

Q: Is RoHS compliance a mandatory consideration for substitution?

A: The FCC17C37SA6EB is RoHS non-compliant. All identified substitutes are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant. For new designs or procurement initiatives subject to RoHS regulations, selection of compliant alternatives is mandatory. For legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not required, the original part specification may be maintained if available inventory exists.
