FN2415-16-29 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FN2415-16-29 is a single-phase EMC/EMI line filter manufactured by Schaffner EMC Inc., rated for 250VAC at 16A with a two-stage configuration and terminal block termination. This chassis-mount filter is designed for general-purpose applications and operates across DC to 60Hz frequency range. The part is currently active in production with 1006 units in stock. Alternative models may be required due to application-specific frequency requirements, current capacity needs, or configuration preferences.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FN2415-16-29 is determined by the following critical parameters: voltage rating (250VAC), mounting type (chassis mount), termination style (terminal block), and filter type (single phase). The substitute parts listed maintain compatibility within these core electrical and mechanical constraints.

The FN350-20-29 shares the same voltage rating, mounting type, and termination style but differs in current capacity (20A vs. 16A) and configuration (single stage vs. two stage), making it suitable for applications requiring higher current handling. The 16FC10 maintains identical voltage, current, and configuration specifications but operates at a different frequency range (50/60Hz vs. DC ~ 60Hz) and has a narrower operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active production status and ROHS3 compliance. The FN2415-16-29 and 16FC10 are functionally equivalent for applications operating at 16A with two-stage filtering. The FN2415-16-29 provides broader frequency coverage (DC ~ 60Hz) and wider operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 100°C) compared to the 16FC10 (-10°C ~ 40°C). The FN2415-16-29 also carries CSA and ENEC approvals in addition to UR certification, whereas 16FC10 holds only UR approval.

The FN350-20-29 is suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity (20A) within the same voltage and mounting specifications. This part operates at extended frequency range (DC ~ 400Hz) and maintains equivalent temperature and approval ratings to the FN2415-16-29. Selection between single-stage (FN350-20-29) and two-stage (FN2415-16-29) configurations depends on application-specific EMI/EMI filtering requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FN350-20-29 replace FN2415-16-29 in all applications? A: FN350-20-29 is suitable for applications where 20A current capacity is acceptable and single-stage filtering meets EMI/EMI requirements. The higher current rating and extended frequency range (DC ~ 400Hz) make it compatible with regenerative motor drive applications. Verify that single-stage filtering is sufficient for your application requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between FN2415-16-29 and 16FC10? A: Both parts share identical voltage (250V), current (16A), and two-stage configuration. The FN2415-16-29 operates across DC ~ 60Hz with temperature range -25°C ~ 100°C, while 16FC10 operates at 50/60Hz with narrower temperature range (-10°C ~ 40°C). The FN2415-16-29 carries additional CSA and ENEC approvals.

Q: Does packaging type affect substitution compatibility? A: Packaging (Tray vs. Bulk) affects inventory handling and procurement logistics but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility. All three parts use terminal block termination and chassis mount configuration.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes, FN2415-16-29, FN350-20-29, and 16FC10 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected or vendor undefined, meeting current environmental regulations.

Q: Which part has the broadest operating temperature range? A: FN2415-16-29 and FN350-20-29 both operate across -25°C ~ 100°C, providing the widest temperature range. The 16FC10 is limited to -10°C ~ 40°C.
