Engineering Selection Recommendations

The K11M07-P08LFG0-5270 (ODU MEDI-SNAP®) is a qualified substitute for the PRG.M0.8GL.LC52G based on matching core electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and maintain identical connector architecture, shell material, and contact specifications.

Selection between these parts should account for the following parameter differences:

  • Current Rating: The ODU substitute is rated at 3.85A compared to the LEMO part's 5A rating. Applications requiring the full 5A capacity must use the primary part.
  • Operating Temperature Range: The ODU substitute operates to 120°C maximum, while the LEMO part extends to 150°C. Applications requiring operation above 120°C require the primary part.

Both parts are active in production with adequate inventory availability. Component selection should be based on application-specific current and temperature requirements within the stated operating ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the K11M07-P08LFG0-5270 be used as a direct replacement for PRG.M0.8GL.LC52G?

A: The K11M07-P08LFG0-5270 is functionally compatible for applications operating within its specified current (3.85A maximum) and temperature (-50°C to 120°C) ranges. Applications requiring the full 5A capacity or operation above 120°C must use the PRG.M0.8GL.LC52G.

Q: What are the key compatibility criteria for these connectors?

A: Compatibility is determined by: 8-position female socket receptacle configuration, solder cup termination, push-pull detent lock fastening, polysulfone shell material, gold contact finish, IP50 ingress protection, and matching cable opening dimensions (4.00mm ~ 5.20mm).

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulations?

A: Yes. Both the PRG.M0.8GL.LC52G and K11M07-P08LFG0-5270 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for industrial, medical, and automotive applications.

Q: What is the difference in contact material between these parts?

A: The LEMO part does not specify contact material in the provided data. The ODU substitute uses brass contacts with gold plating. Both maintain gold-plated mating surfaces for electrical performance.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in medical device applications?

A: Both parts are listed for medical applications. Interchangeability depends on specific application requirements regarding current capacity and operating temperature. Design validation should confirm compatibility with the selected substitute within the stated electrical and thermal parameters.
