Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PXM6010/08P/CR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Series & Manufacturer: Must remain within Bulgin Buccaneer® 6000 series to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Number of Positions: Must maintain 8-position configuration for pin count equivalence
• Connector Type & Mounting: Must be plug housing with free-hanging, in-line mounting to preserve form factor
• Fastening Mechanism: Must use push-twist fastening for interface compatibility
• Shell Construction: Must use nickel-plated brass for environmental durability and electrical performance
• Ingress Protection Rating: Must maintain IP66/IP68/IP69K classification for sealed operation
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -40°C ~ 120°C operational envelope
• Regulatory Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status

The substitute part PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN meets all these criteria while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental regulations
• Enhanced Availability: The substitute part shows 1006 units in stock compared to 735 units for the obsolete part, providing improved procurement flexibility
• Shielding Enhancement: The substitute incorporates shielding, offering improved electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance while maintaining all other specifications

Selection of PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN is appropriate for all applications currently using PXM6010/08P/CR, with no design modifications required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN be used as a direct replacement for PXM6010/08P/CR?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically equivalent across all critical parameters: 8-position configuration, push-twist fastening, free-hanging in-line mounting, nickel-plated brass construction, IP66/IP68/IP69K ingress protection, and -40°C ~ 120°C operating temperature range. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the main part and the substitute?

A: The primary differences are product status and shielding. PXM6010/08P/CR is obsolete with unshielded construction, while PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN is active production with shielded construction. The shielding enhancement provides improved EMI performance without affecting mechanical or electrical compatibility.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the shielding difference?

A: No. The addition of shielding in the substitute part is a performance enhancement that does not compromise compatibility. Shielded connectors are backward compatible with applications designed for unshielded versions.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN is supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for production and assembly environments requiring standard quantity orders.

Q: Do both parts include contacts?

A: No. Both PXM6010/08P/CR and PXM6010/08P/CR/0709/SN are plug housings supplied without contacts. Contacts must be procured separately and selected based on application requirements.

Q: Are regulatory certifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, EAR99 export classification, and HTSUS code 8538.90.8180.
