FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z is a 7-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 a wide temperature range of -55°C to 250°C. The part is currently active in production with 974 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when design requirements permit functional alternatives.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Plug with male pins, 7-position, solder cup termination
• Electrical Interface: Gold-plated mating contacts, shielded design
• Mechanical Interface: Push-pull fastening, free-hanging mounting
• Environmental Compliance: ROHS3 compliance, IP50 ingress protection rating
• Material Specifications: Brass shell with chrome finish, PEEK insert material

The substitute part S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S (ODU MINI-SNAP® L series) meets these core functional requirements. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, termination method, fastening mechanism, shell material composition, contact finish, shielding configuration, and insert material. Both are ROHS3 compliant and provide IP50 ingress protection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z and S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S are active production parts with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

The FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z operates across -55°C to 250°C and carries a 2.5A current rating. The S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S operates across -40°C to 120°C with a 4A current rating. Applications requiring the extended low-temperature performance of -55°C or high-temperature operation above 120°C necessitate the LEMO part. Applications operating within -40°C to 120°C may utilize the ODU substitute, which provides higher current capacity.

Cable opening specifications differ slightly: the LEMO part accommodates 5.30mm to 5.60mm cable diameters, while the ODU part accommodates 5.00mm to 5.60mm. Mechanical fit with existing cable assemblies must be confirmed based on actual cable dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S replace the FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid only when the application operates within -40°C to 120°C temperature range and does not exceed 4A current draw. Applications requiring -55°C low-temperature performance or operation above 120°C require the LEMO part.

Q: What are the differences in shell finish between these connectors?

A: The FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z features chrome finish on brass shell. The S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S features chrome over nickel finish on brass shell. Both provide equivalent corrosion resistance and electrical performance for the specified applications.

Q: Are cable opening dimensions compatible between these parts?

A: Cable opening ranges overlap but differ slightly. The LEMO part accepts 5.30mm to 5.60mm cables, while the ODU part accepts 5.00mm to 5.60mm cables. Existing cable assemblies must be physically verified for fit with the substitute connector.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry EAR99 ECCN classification. Both maintain UL94 V-0 or equivalent material flammability ratings and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).

Q: What is the current capacity difference and does it matter?

A: The FGA.0B.307.CLAD56Z is rated for 2.5A while the S20LAC-P07MCC0-560S is rated for 4A. The substitute part provides higher current capacity. Applications designed for 2.5A operation are compatible with the higher-rated substitute.
