FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z is a 5-position circular connector plug with male pins and solder cup termination, manufactured by LEMO. This connector is designed for applications requiring shielded, push-pull fastening with gold-plated mating contacts and operates across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 250°C. The part is currently active in production with 715 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when design flexibility permits component selection from qualified manufacturers.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type (Plug, Male Pins) and number of positions (5)
  • Termination method (Solder Cup)
  • Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)
  • Contact finish (Gold plating on mating surfaces)
  • Shielding configuration (Shielded)
  • Insert material (PEEK)
  • Ingress protection rating (IP50 minimum)
  • RoHS3 compliance

The substitute part S20LAC-P05MFG0-320S from ODU meets these core functional requirements. Both parts are 5-position shielded circular connectors with male pins, solder cup termination, push-pull fastening, gold-plated contacts, PEEK inserts, IP50 ingress protection, and ROHS3 compliance. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is established through these aligned parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z and S20LAC-P05MFG0-320S are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The ODU substitute part S20LAC-P05MFG0-320S provides equivalent functional performance for applications operating within the -40°C to 120°C temperature range. The LEMO part maintains suitability for extended temperature applications down to -55°C and up to 250°C. The ODU part offers a higher current rating of 7.5A compared to 6.5A for the LEMO part. Selection between these parts should be based on specific application temperature requirements and current demands.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can S20LAC-P05MFG0-320S be used as a direct replacement for FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z?

A: Both parts share identical connector type, pin count, termination method, fastening mechanism, contact finish, shielding, and insert material. Substitution is mechanically and electrically compatible within the overlapping operating temperature range of -40°C to 120°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 120°C must use the LEMO part.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are operating temperature range (LEMO: -55°C to 250°C; ODU: -40°C to 120°C), current rating (LEMO: 6.5A; ODU: 7.5A), shell finish (LEMO: Chrome; ODU: Chrome over Nickel), and cable opening tolerance (LEMO: 2.30mm to 3.20mm; ODU: 2.00mm to 3.20mm). The ODU part includes strain relief as an additional feature.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes, both FGA.0B.305.CLAD25Z and S20LAC-P05MFG0-320S are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the significance of the IP50 ingress protection rating?

A: IP50 indicates dust protection. Both parts provide equivalent ingress protection suitable for industrial and general-purpose applications where dust contamination is a concern.

Q: Does cable diameter compatibility affect substitution?

A: Cable opening specifications differ slightly. The LEMO part accepts 2.30mm to 3.20mm cable diameters, while the ODU part accepts 2.00mm to 3.20mm. Verify your cable diameter falls within both ranges for seamless substitution, or confirm compatibility with the narrower range of the ODU part.
