Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PE712006 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector style and type (IEC 320-C14, Receptacle, Male Blades - Module)
• Electrical ratings (6A filter current, 250VAC appliance inlet voltage)
• Mechanical compatibility (Panel Mount, Snap-In, 3-position configuration)
• Filtering capability (EMI/RFI Commercial grade)
• Fuse accommodation feature
• Panel thickness accommodation range
• Regulatory compliance (CE, CSA, UL certifications minimum)
• Environmental compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The FN370-6-22 from Schaffner EMC Inc. meets these substitution criteria through equivalent functional design, matching connector interface, compatible panel mounting specifications, and overlapping regulatory approvals.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both PE712006 and FN370-6-22 are active products with current manufacturing status and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Regulatory requirement alignment: PE712006 includes TUV certification; FN370-6-22 includes VDE certification. Verify that your application's target market accepts the available certifications.
• Packaging format: PE712006 is supplied in Bulk packaging; FN370-6-22 is supplied in Tray packaging. Confirm packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes.
• Panel thickness tolerance: FN370-6-22 accommodates marginally thicker panels (0.126" maximum versus 0.125" maximum). Verify panel thickness specifications for your enclosure design.
• Inventory availability: Both parts maintain active stock levels suitable for production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FN370-6-22 directly replace PE712006 in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided that your application's regulatory requirements are satisfied by the available certifications (CSA, UL, VDE for FN370-6-22 versus CE, CSA, TUV, UL for PE712006) and panel thickness does not exceed 0.126" (3.20mm).

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between these parts?

A: Both parts are rated for 6A filter current and accommodate 250VAC appliance inlet voltage. The FN370-6-22 does not specify appliance inlet voltage and current ratings in the provided data; however, the matching filter specifications and IEC 320-C14 interface indicate electrical equivalence for standard applications.

Q: What is the difference in packaging, and does it affect compatibility?

A: PE712006 is supplied in Bulk packaging; FN370-6-22 is supplied in Tray packaging. Packaging format affects logistics and assembly handling but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are both parts suitable for commercial EMI/RFI filtering applications?

A: Yes. Both parts feature Commercial-grade EMI/RFI filtering at 6A capacity, meeting standard industrial power entry requirements.

Q: What certifications should I verify for my target market?

A: PE712006 holds CE, CSA, TUV, and UL approvals. FN370-6-22 holds CSA, UL, and VDE approvals. Confirm that your application's regulatory requirements are satisfied by the available certifications for your chosen substitute.
