Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PXM6010/16S/CR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Series and Connector Family: Both parts must belong to the Buccaneer® 6000 series to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Number of Positions: Exact match at 16 positions required
• Connector Type: Both must be plug housings for female sockets
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging, in-line mounting type must be maintained
• Fastening Mechanism: Push-twist fastening must be identical
• Shell Construction: Brass material with nickel finish ensures equivalent environmental resistance
• Ingress Protection Rating: IP66/IP68/IP69K rating must be preserved
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 120°C compatibility required
• Contact Type: Crimp and solder cup contact compatibility maintained
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status required

The substitute part PXM6010/16S/CR/0910/SN meets all these criteria while offering active product status and updated packaging specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PXM6010/16S/CR/0910/SN is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete PXM6010/16S/CR. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, including connector configuration, environmental protection rating, and operating temperature range.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying current regulatory requirements. The packaging difference (bulk for the substitute versus unspecified for the main part) does not affect functional compatibility or performance characteristics.

Selection of the PXM6010/16S/CR/0910/SN is appropriate for all applications previously utilizing the PXM6010/16S/CR, with no modifications to connector interfaces, mating requirements, or system integration necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are PXM6010/16S/CR and PXM6010/16S/CR/0910/SN mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in mechanical configuration, including mounting type, fastening mechanism, shell dimensions, and connector interface. The suffix designation in the substitute part indicates packaging and manufacturing date code specifications only.

Q: Does the substitute part maintain the same ingress protection rating?
