Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17E09PC480 directly replace the FCC17E09PC480 without design modifications?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC480 maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters including connector style, position count, mounting type, termination method, current rating, operating temperature range, flammability rating, contact finish specifications, shell material, flange feature, and features. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance (compliant versus non-compliant). No circuit or layout modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the multiple FCE17 part numbers (PC400, PC410, PC440, PC450, PC490, PC4D0, PC4E0)?

A: All FCE17 variants listed maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The differences in part number suffixes reflect manufacturing or configuration variations not detailed in the provided parameters. All variants are active products with RoHS compliance and equivalent substitution capability for the FCC17E09PC480.

Q: Are the HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 direct replacements?

A: The HARTING parts provide functional equivalence with parameter variations. They maintain the same connector style, position count, mounting type, and termination method. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), current rating (6.5A versus 5A), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C), contact material (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze), and dielectric material composition. The HARTING 09651626816 features 4-40 flange compatibility. These parts are suitable for applications where these parameter differences are acceptable.

Q: What is the significance of the flange feature difference between HARTING 09651626815 (M3) and 09651626816 (4-40)?

A: The flange feature specifies the mounting hole thread specification. The original FCC17E09PC480 and most FCE17 variants use 4-40 flange specification. The HARTING 09651626815 uses M3 metric specification, which is incompatible with 4-40 mounting holes. The HARTING 09651626816 uses 4-40 specification, matching the original part. Verify mounting hole specifications before selecting between these HARTING alternatives.

Q: Why do the FCE17 parts specify glass-filled thermoplastic dielectric material while the FCC17E09PC480 specifies base thermoplastic?

A: Glass-filled thermoplastic provides enhanced mechanical strength, thermal stability, and dimensional consistency compared to base thermoplastic. This material upgrade in the FCE17 series represents an improvement in connector reliability and performance characteristics while maintaining electrical compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts are RoHS compliant. The HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 are ROHS3 compliant. The original FCC17E09PC480 is RoHS non-compliant. All substitute parts meet current regulatory requirements for RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the backset spacing parameter and why does it differ between parts?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the connector mounting face to the contact insertion point. The FCC17E09PC480 and all FCE17 variants specify 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing. The HARTING parts specify 0.409" (10.40mm) backset spacing. This parameter affects connector depth and may impact PCB layout. Verify backset spacing compatibility with existing designs before substitution.

Q: Can I use a HARTING part in a design originally specified for the FCC17E09PC480?

A: HARTING parts provide functional equivalence but require evaluation of parameter differences. The reduced backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), different contact material (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze), and extended operating temperature range may require design review. The higher current rating (6.5A versus 5A) is generally beneficial. Verify all parameter differences against application requirements before substitution.
