Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four parts maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, qualifying them for equivalent use in applications requiring 7-position circular connectors with solder cup termination within the MEDI-SNAP® series.

K21MC7-P07LFD0-397S (Primary): Select when cable opening specification of 0.106" ~ 0.154" (2.70mm ~ 3.90mm) is required and current rating of 3.9A is sufficient for the application.

K21M07-P07LFD0-397S: Direct substitute with identical cable opening range. Provides higher current rating of 4.55A. Select when increased current capacity is beneficial or when primary part availability is limited.

K21M07-P07LFD0-527S: Select when cable opening specification of 0.157" ~ 0.205" (4.00mm ~ 5.20mm) is required to accommodate larger cable gauges. Current rating of 4.55A applies.

K21M07-P07LFD0-657S: Select when cable opening specification of 0.209" ~ 0.256" (5.30mm ~ 6.50mm) is required for the largest cable diameter range. Current rating of 4.55A applies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can K21M07-P07LFD0-397S be used as a direct replacement for K21MC7-P07LFD0-397S?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical cable opening specifications (0.106" ~ 0.154"), connector type, position count, termination method, and shell material. The K21M07-P07LFD0-397S provides a higher current rating of 4.55A compared to 3.9A.

Q: What determines which substitute part to select?

A: Cable opening diameter is the primary selection criterion. Choose the part whose cable opening range accommodates your specific cable gauge. All substitutes maintain identical connector type, position count, termination, and material specifications.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All four parts listed carry ROHS3 compliance certification and maintain active product status.

Q: Can parts with different cable opening ranges be intermixed in the same assembly?

A: No. Cable opening specifications are fixed per part number. Select the appropriate part number based on your cable gauge requirements before assembly.

Q: What is the difference between the three substitute part numbers?

A: The three K21M07-P07LFD0 variants differ only in cable opening diameter range and are designated by the final suffix (397S, 527S, 657S). All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain constant across the series.
