Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PXM6011/08P/CR is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer and series consistency (Bulgin Buccaneer® 6000)
• Connector type and gender (Receptacle Housing for Male Pins)
• Position count and power rating (8 positions)
• Mounting configuration (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Fastening and orientation mechanism (Push-Twist, Keyed)
• Contact interface (Crimp and Solder Cup)
• Environmental protection rating (IP66/IP68/IP69K)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 120°C)
• Regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The substitute part PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN maintains full equivalence across all these parameters while offering active product status and updated packaging specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN is the direct substitute for the obsolete PXM6011/08P/CR. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, ensuring functional interchangeability within existing designs and assemblies.

The substitute part offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH regulatory requirements, making them suitable for applications requiring environmental and regulatory adherence.

The primary distinction between the two parts is the addition of shielding in the substitute variant (PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN) and its availability in bulk packaging. These differences do not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility with mating connectors or existing circuit designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN be used as a direct replacement for PXM6011/08P/CR?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in connector type, position count, mounting configuration, fastening mechanism, contact interface, and environmental protection rating. The substitute part is fully compatible with existing male pin connectors and circuit assemblies designed for the original part.

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

A: The original PXM6011/08P/CR is unshielded, while the substitute PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN includes shielding. Shielding provides additional electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. This enhancement does not prevent mechanical or electrical compatibility; it provides additional performance capability for applications requiring EMI mitigation.

Q: Does the bulk packaging of the substitute part affect its performance or compatibility?

A: No. Packaging specification relates only to order quantity and delivery format. The connector itself maintains identical physical dimensions, electrical characteristics, and mechanical properties regardless of packaging type.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both PXM6011/08P/CR and PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement and use.

Q: Why is the original part listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence typically reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions based on market demand, production efficiency, or product line consolidation. The availability of the active substitute part (PXM6011/08P/CR/0709/SN) ensures continued access to functionally equivalent components for maintenance and new designs.
