Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The FN5060-12-84 qualifies as a substitute based on the following alignment of critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Common Parameters:

• Filter Type: Three Phase (Delta) configuration maintained
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount preserved
• Termination Style: Terminal Block interface consistent
• Voltage Rating - Phase to Phase: 500 V minimum threshold met (550 V rated)
• Compliance: Both ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected
• Manufacturer: Schaffner EMC Inc. (same manufacturer ecosystem)

Substitution Basis: The FN5060-12-84 operates at a higher current rating (12 A versus 8 A) and elevated voltage phase-to-ground specification (500 V versus 288 V), positioning it as a higher-capacity alternative within the same three-phase delta filter category. The substitute maintains identical mounting and termination characteristics, enabling direct mechanical integration into existing chassis designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FN5060-12-84 Substitution Criteria:

The FN5060-12-84 is suitable for applications currently specified with the FN510-8-29 where the following conditions are met:

• System current demand does not exceed 12 A AC
• Phase-to-phase voltage does not exceed 550 V
• Phase-to-ground/neutral voltage does not exceed 500 V
• Chassis mount configuration with terminal block termination is required
• Active product status and extended operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 100°C) provide supply chain continuity and enhanced thermal performance

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for equivalent component substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the FN510-8-29 being phased out? A: The FN510-8-29 is classified as obsolete. The FN5060-12-84 represents the active product line continuation from Schaffner EMC Inc. for three-phase delta EMC/EMI line filters in this capacity range.

Q: Can the FN5060-12-84 directly replace the FN510-8-29 in existing designs? A: Direct mechanical replacement is possible due to identical mounting type (chassis mount) and termination style (terminal block). Electrical compatibility requires verification that system voltage and current specifications fall within the FN5060-12-84 ratings: 12 A maximum current and 550 V phase-to-phase maximum voltage.

Q: What is the difference in current rating between these parts? A: The FN510-8-29 is rated for 8 A, while the FN5060-12-84 is rated for 12 A. The substitute provides higher current capacity, making it suitable for applications at or below the original 8 A specification.

Q: Are there packaging differences? A: The FN510-8-29 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The FN5060-12-84 is supplied in tray packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards? A: Both the FN510-8-29 and FN5060-12-84 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The FN5060-12-84 carries CE and cURus approvals, providing additional certification coverage for regulated markets.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference? A: The FN510-8-29 operates from -25°C to 70°C. The FN5060-12-84 extends the upper limit to 100°C, offering improved thermal performance for applications in elevated ambient conditions.
