FCE17E09PC2EB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCE17E09PC2EB is a 9-position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This right-angle, solder-terminated connector features male pins and is designed for through-hole mounting applications. The connector is currently in active product status with 1051 pieces available in inventory.

D-Sub connectors of this configuration are widely used in industrial control systems, data acquisition equipment, and legacy computing applications. Substitute parts become necessary when the primary manufacturer experiences supply constraints, when alternative sourcing strategies are required, or when design flexibility permits the use of equivalent connector configurations that meet the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FCE17E09PC2EB with the NorComp Inc. part number 183-009-113R171 is permissible based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Matching Electrical Specifications:

• Connector style: D-Sub
• Connector type: Plug, Male Pins
• Number of positions: 9
• Number of rows: 2
• Shell size and layout: 1 (DE, E)
• Current rating: 5A
• Backset spacing: 0.590" (14.99mm)
• Termination method: Solder
• Contact finish: Gold
• Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0

Matching Mechanical Specifications:

• Mounting type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Contact type: Signal
• Shell material: Steel

Compliance Alignment:

• RoHS compliance status: Both parts meet RoHS requirements
• ECCN classification: EAR99 (identical)
• HTSUS code: 8536.69.4040 (identical)

The substitute part operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C) compared to the primary part (-40°C ~ 85°C), providing broader environmental capability. The substitute part features a nickel-plated shell finish and brass contact material, compared to the tin-plated shell and phosphor bronze contacts of the primary part. These material differences do not affect functional compatibility for standard signal applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FCE17E09PC2EB and 183-009-113R171 are active-status products suitable for new design implementations and ongoing production applications.

Primary Part Selection (FCE17E09PC2EB): The Amphenol ICC connector is appropriate for applications operating within the -40°C to 85°C temperature range. This part maintains RoHS compliance and carries UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Current inventory of 1051 pieces supports immediate procurement requirements.

Substitute Part Selection (183-009-113R171): The NorComp Inc. connector is appropriate for applications requiring extended temperature operation (-55°C to 105°C). This part meets ROHS3 compliance requirements and carries identical UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Current inventory of 1840 pieces provides robust supply availability. The substitute part supports panel mount configurations in addition to through-hole mounting, offering design flexibility for applications requiring front-panel accessibility.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical specifications for 9-position D-Sub signal applications at 5A current rating. Selection between these parts should be based on application temperature requirements, mounting configuration needs, and supply chain considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the NorComp 183-009-113R171 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol FCE17E09PC2EB in existing designs?

A: Yes, for applications operating within the -40°C to 85°C temperature range. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications, pin configurations, and mechanical mounting interfaces for through-hole solder termination. The substitute part's extended temperature capability (-55°C to 105°C) does not create compatibility issues in standard-temperature applications.

Q: What are the material differences between these two connectors?

A: The primary part features a tin-plated steel shell with phosphor bronze contacts. The substitute part features a nickel-plated steel shell with brass contacts. Both maintain gold contact finish plating. These material variations do not affect electrical performance for standard signal applications within the specified current and voltage parameters.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC2EB is RoHS Compliant. The 183-009-113R171 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the difference in mounting capabilities between these connectors?

A: The FCE17E09PC2EB supports through-hole, right-angle mounting. The 183-009-113R171 supports panel mount, through-hole, and right-angle mounting configurations. The substitute part offers additional mounting flexibility for applications requiring front-panel connector access.

Q: Do these connectors have different flange features?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC2EB features an unthreaded housing/shell flange. The 183-009-113R171 features a 4-40 threaded flange. Both configurations support secure mechanical mounting; the threaded option provides screw-lock capability for applications requiring enhanced vibration resistance.

Q: What packaging formats are available for these parts?

A: The FCE17E09PC2EB is available in standard packaging. The 183-009-113R171 is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format selection should align with production assembly requirements and inventory management procedures.

Q: Are both connectors suitable for new product designs?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain active product status and are appropriate for new design implementations. Selection should be based on application-specific requirements for temperature range, mounting configuration, and supply chain strategy.
