Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series
The FCE17C37SB240, FCE17C37SB200, FCE17C37SB210, FCE17C37SB250, FCE17C37SB280, FCE17C37SB290, FCE17C37SB2D0, and FCE17C37SB2E0 connectors are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17C37SB240. These parts are manufactured by the same supplier and maintain full parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. All FCE17 series variants carry active product status and RoHS compliance certification, supporting modern procurement and regulatory requirements. The FCE17 series employs glass-filled thermoplastic dielectric material, providing enhanced mechanical and thermal stability compared to the original FCC17 series.
Secondary Recommendation: HARTING Alternative Manufacturers
The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 connectors provide functional equivalence for applications where alternative sourcing is required. Both parts maintain the 37-position, 2-row D-Sub receptacle configuration with through-hole right-angle solder termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The HARTING connectors carry active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification.
The HARTING 09644147232 features a higher current rating of 7.5A and extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, with mounting brackets included. The flange feature incorporates 4-40 threaded holes, differing from the unthreaded housing of the FCC17C37SB240.
The HARTING 09664127600 provides a current rating of 6.5A with the same extended operating temperature range. Backset spacing tolerance differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) compared to the 0.405" (10.29mm) specification of the original part.
Compliance Considerations
The FCC17C37SB240 is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes and HARTING alternatives carry RoHS or ROHS3 compliance certification, supporting procurement requirements for regulated applications and industries with environmental compliance mandates.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the FCE17C37SB240 directly replace the FCC17C37SB240 in existing designs?
A: Yes. The FCE17C37SB240 maintains full parametric equivalence with the FCC17C37SB240 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters, including connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and termination method. The FCE17 series represents the active product line continuation from the obsolete FCC17 series.
Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17C37SB part numbers?
A: The FCE17C37SB200, FCE17C37SB210, FCE17C37SB240, FCE17C37SB250, FCE17C37SB280, FCE17C37SB290, FCE17C37SB2D0, and FCE17C37SB2E0 designations reflect internal Amphenol ICC product configuration codes. All variants maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 37-position D-Sub receptacle configuration. Selection among these variants is determined by specific internal configuration requirements or inventory availability.
Q: Are the HARTING connectors suitable for direct substitution?
A: The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 connectors provide functional equivalence for the 37-position D-Sub receptacle application. However, design verification is required for applications with specific requirements regarding backset spacing tolerance, flange feature design, or extended operating temperature range. The HARTING 09644147232 includes mounting brackets and features 4-40 threaded flange holes, differing from the unthreaded housing of the FCC17C37SB240. The HARTING 09664127600 maintains unthreaded housing but exhibits backset spacing variation.
Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance in selecting a substitute?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitutes, including the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series and HARTING alternatives, carry RoHS or ROHS3 compliance certification. RoHS compliance is mandatory for procurement in regulated industries and jurisdictions with environmental directives. Selection of RoHS-compliant substitutes ensures regulatory alignment and supports long-term supply chain sustainability.
Q: How do the operating temperature ranges compare?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes operate across -40°C to 85°C. The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 connectors extend the operating temperature range to -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation at temperatures below -40°C or above 85°C must specify HARTING alternatives.
Q: What is the current rating difference between the main part and HARTING alternatives?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes are rated for 5A. The HARTING 09644147232 is rated for 7.5A, and the HARTING 09664127600 is rated for 6.5A. Applications requiring current capacity exceeding 5A must specify HARTING alternatives. Applications designed for 5A operation are compatible with all listed substitutes.
Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes carry unspecified packaging. The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 are supplied in bulk packaging. Procurement specifications should address packaging requirements independently of connector selection.
Q: What is the significance of contact finish specifications?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes feature gold contact finish with 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness, supporting signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 contact finish specifications are not provided in the technical data. Applications with specific contact finish requirements should specify Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes to ensure gold plating consistency.
Q: How do dielectric material specifications affect connector selection?
A: The FCC17C37SB240 employs thermoplastic dielectric material. The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes employ thermoplastic, glass-filled dielectric material, providing enhanced mechanical and thermal stability. The HARTING 09644147232 uses polycyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate (PCT), and the HARTING 09664127600 uses polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyester, glass-filled material. All materials maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Dielectric material selection does not affect electrical performance for standard signal applications.
