Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PXM6010/08S/CR is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the Buccaneer® 6000 series
• Position Count: Exactly 8 positions (Power configuration)
• Connector Type: Plug housing for female sockets
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging, in-line orientation
• Fastening Mechanism: Push-twist coupling nut
• Shell Construction: Brass with nickel finish
• Environmental Rating: IP66/IP68/IP69K ingress protection
• Temperature Range: -40°C to 120°C operating limits
• Contact Configuration: Crimp and solder cup contact type
• Keying: Keyed orientation

The substitute part PXM6010/08S/CR/0709/SN meets all these criteria while offering an active product status and updated packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PXM6010/08S/CR/0709/SN is the designated manufacturer substitute for the obsolete PXM6010/08S/CR. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 8-position configuration, push-twist fastening, IP66/IP68/IP69K environmental protection, and -40°C to 120°C operating range.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying current regulatory requirements.

A notable difference exists in shielding configuration: the main part is unshielded while the substitute provides shielded construction. This enhancement does not compromise compatibility with existing female socket interfaces within the Buccaneer® 6000 series, as shielding is an additive feature that maintains mechanical and electrical interface integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. Both parts share identical position count, mounting configuration, fastening mechanism, environmental rating, and operating temperature range. The substitute maintains full mechanical and electrical compatibility with female socket connectors designed for the original part.

Q: What is the significance of the shielding difference between the two parts?

A: The substitute part includes shielding, while the original is unshielded. Shielding provides enhanced electromagnetic interference protection without affecting the physical or electrical interface. This is a compatible enhancement that does not prevent mating with existing female sockets.

Q: Why is the original part listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The designated substitute PXM6010/08S/CR/0709/SN remains in active production, ensuring long-term availability for system maintenance and new installations.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The original part packaging is not specified in available documentation. The substitute is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging configuration does not affect connector performance or compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the original and substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, satisfying current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Q: What is the base product number relationship?

A: Both PXM6010/08S/CR and PXM6010/08S/CR/0709/SN share the base product number PXM6010, indicating they belong to the same connector family within the Buccaneer® 6000 series.
