FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z is a 6-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 1006 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component procurement flexibility while maintaining functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z is determined by alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Positions: Plug configuration with 6 male pin positions
• Termination Method: Solder cup termination for direct wire attachment
• Fastening Mechanism: Push-pull coupling system
• Electrical Properties: Shielded design with gold-plated mating contacts
• Material Specifications: Brass shell with chrome finish and PEEK insert
• Environmental Protection: IP50 ingress protection rating
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status

The substitute part S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S (ODU MINI-SNAP® L series) meets these core substitution criteria. Variations in non-critical parameters such as current rating, operating temperature range, and backshell material plating do not preclude functional equivalence when the application requirements fall within the substitute's specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z and S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S maintain active product status and full ROHS3 compliance with REACH unaffected designation. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

The FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z supports extended operating temperatures from -55°C to 250°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications. The S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S operates within -40°C to 120°C and provides higher current capacity at 4A versus 2.5A. Both connectors feature identical core electrical and mechanical characteristics: 6-position male plug configuration, solder cup termination, push-pull fastening, shielded design with gold-plated contacts, and IP50 ingress protection.

Component selection should be based on the specific operating temperature and current requirements of the target application. When application conditions fall within the operating envelope of the substitute part, either connector provides functional equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S replace the FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid when the application operates within the S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S operating temperature range (-40°C to 120°C) and current requirements do not exceed 4A. Applications requiring temperatures below -40°C or above 120°C require the FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors between these two connectors?

A: Both connectors share identical connector type (6-position male plug), termination method (solder cup), fastening mechanism (push-pull), shielding configuration, contact finish (gold), and ingress protection rating (IP50). These parameters ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Q: Are there differences in cable opening specifications?

A: The FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z accepts cable diameters of 0.165" to 0.205" (4.20mm to 5.20mm), while the S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S accepts 0.157" to 0.205" (4.00mm to 5.20mm). The substitute part accommodates slightly smaller minimum cable diameters.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z and S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, with moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited shelf life).

Q: What is the difference in shell finish between the two parts?

A: The FGA.0B.306.CLAD52Z features chrome finish on brass shell, while the S20LAC-P06MCC0-520S features chrome over nickel plating on brass shell. Both provide equivalent corrosion protection and electrical performance.
