Substitution Categories:

Direct Substitute (Active Status): SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ meets all primary matching criteria with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part is currently active in production and represents the primary replacement for the obsolete XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ.

Similar Substitute (Active Status, Parameter Variance): PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ shares core electrical and mechanical compatibility but includes parameter variations in fastening type (includes detent lock feature), orientation (G vs. N), shell material (polysulfone vs. sulfone), and maximum operating temperature (150°C vs. 170°C). This part is suitable for applications where the additional fastening security and material properties are acceptable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Preferred): Select SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ when the application requires identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the obsolete XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ. This part maintains all critical parameters including operating temperature range, fastening type, and shell material. The part is currently active in production with adequate inventory availability.

For Applications with Modified Requirements: Select PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ when the application can accommodate the following parameter variations: detent lock fastening feature, polysulfone shell material, orientation type G, and maximum operating temperature of 150°C instead of 170°C. This part is suitable for industrial and automotive applications where the enhanced fastening security is beneficial. Verify that the 20°C reduction in maximum operating temperature does not conflict with system thermal requirements.

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ be used as a direct replacement for XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ?

A: Yes. SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ is a direct substitute with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts feature 8-position M08 shell size, solder cup termination, 5A current rating, gold-plated contacts, and -50°C to 170°C operating temperature range. The primary difference is product status: XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ is obsolete while SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ is active in production.

Q: What are the key differences between SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ and PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ?

A: The parts differ in four parameters: fastening type (SAN includes push-pull only; PAG includes push-pull with detent lock), orientation (SAN is type N; PAG is type G), shell material (SAN is sulfone; PAG is polysulfone), and maximum operating temperature (SAN is 170°C; PAG is 150°C). All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Is PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ suitable for applications requiring 170°C operation?

A: No. PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ has a maximum operating temperature of 150°C. For applications requiring operation above 150°C, use SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ or the original XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ.

Q: Do all substitute parts maintain the same cable opening range?

A: Yes. All parts listed maintain the cable opening range of 0.209" to 0.256" (5.30mm to 6.50mm), ensuring compatibility with existing cable assemblies.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: XAN.M08.GLA.6GZ packaging is listed as unspecified. SAN.M08.GLA.6GZ and PAG.M0.8GL.AC65GZ are supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with procurement specifications.

Q: Do all parts meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. All parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export purposes, meeting current regulatory standards.
