Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FN284B-10-06 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Connector style must be IEC 320-C14
• Connector type must be Receptacle, Male Blades - Module
• Number of positions must be 3
• Filter type must be Filtered (EMI, RFI) for Commercial, Medical applications
• Current rating of the filter must support the operational requirements

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Mounting type must be Panel Mount, Flange
• Termination must be Quick Connect - 0.250" (6.3mm)
• Panel cutout dimensions must accommodate the original specification or be compatible with the installation footprint
• Fuse accommodation capability must be present

Regulatory Compliance:

• Substitute parts must hold active product status
• Approval agencies must include UL and ENEC certifications at minimum

The substitute part B84776M0010A000 meets these criteria through equivalent IEC 320-C14 receptacle configuration, identical connector type, matching position count, filtered EMI/RFI design for commercial and medical use, panel mount flange installation, and quick connect termination. Both parts are active products with overlapping regulatory approvals.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FN284B-10-06 (Schaffner EMC Inc.): This part is recommended for applications requiring the full certification portfolio including CQC and CSA approvals. The 11.6A filter current rating provides higher capacity margin. The twin fused configuration offers dual-channel protection. Material flammability rating of UL94 V-2 is specified. This part maintains 1167 units in current inventory.

B84776M0010A000 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics): This substitute is suitable for applications where cUL, ENEC, and UL certifications satisfy regulatory requirements. The 10A filter current rating is lower than the original part. RoHS3 compliance and REACH affected status are documented. This part has higher inventory availability at 3482 units. The fuse holder configuration differs from the twin fused design of the original.

Both parts are active products with equivalent IEC 320-C14 receptacle functionality, identical connector type, matching position count, and compatible panel mount flange installation. Selection between these parts depends on specific certification requirements, current rating headroom needed for the application, and fuse configuration preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can B84776M0010A000 directly replace FN284B-10-06 in all applications?

A: Both parts share the same IEC 320-C14 connector style, receptacle male blades configuration, 3-position count, filtered EMI/RFI design for commercial and medical use, panel mount flange installation, and quick connect 0.250" termination. The primary differences are the filter current rating (10A versus 11.6A) and fuse configuration (fuse holder versus twin fused). Substitution is valid when the 10A current rating meets application requirements and the fuse holder configuration is compatible with the installation.

Q: What are the critical parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: connector style (IEC 320-C14), connector type (receptacle, male blades - module), number of positions (3), filter type (filtered EMI/RFI for commercial and medical), mounting type (panel mount, flange), termination style (quick connect 0.250"), and fuse accommodation capability. Regulatory approvals including UL and ENEC certifications must be present on substitute parts.

Q: How do the current ratings differ between these parts?

A: The FN284B-10-06 has a filter current rating of 11.6A, while the B84776M0010A000 has a filter current rating of 10A. Applications requiring current capacity above 10A must use the FN284B-10-06 or verify that the B84776M0010A000 10A rating is sufficient for the specific load.

Q: What is the difference in fuse configuration?

A: The FN284B-10-06 features a twin fused fuse holder configuration, providing dual-channel fuse protection. The B84776M0010A000 features a standard fuse holder configuration. Both accommodate fuses (not included). The choice depends on whether dual-channel protection is required by the application design.

Q: Are the panel cutout dimensions compatible?

A: The FN284B-10-06 specifies rectangular panel cutout dimensions of 29.00mm x 60.00mm. The B84776M0010A000 lists variable size panel cutout dimensions. Mechanical compatibility must be confirmed based on the specific panel installation requirements and the actual cutout dimensions of the substitute part.

Q: What regulatory approvals does each part hold?

A: The FN284B-10-06 holds CE, CQC, CSA, ENEC, and UL approvals. The B84776M0010A000 holds cUL, ENEC, and UL approvals. Applications requiring CQC or CSA certification must use the FN284B-10-06. Applications satisfied by cUL, ENEC, and UL certifications can use either part.

Q: Is the B84776M0010A000 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, the B84776M0010A000 is RoHS3 compliant and REACH affected. The FN284B-10-06 does not specify RoHS or REACH status in the provided data. Applications with RoHS3 compliance requirements should use the B84776M0010A000.
