Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 5223995-1 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 223995-1 connector. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Consideration: The main part 223995-1 carries an obsolete status, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The substitute 5223995-1 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Regulatory Compliance: The substitute part 5223995-1 is RoHS Compliant, whereas the main part is RoHS non-compliant. This distinction is significant for applications subject to RoHS directives and environmental regulations. Both parts maintain identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All electrical parameters (250V voltage rating, -55°C to 125°C operating temperature, UL94 V-0 flammability rating) and mechanical parameters (4-position receptacle, female blade sockets, through-hole press-fit termination, gold or gold-palladium contact finish) are identical between the main part and substitute.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in tube packaging, whereas packaging information for the main part is not specified. This packaging difference does not affect functional or electrical compatibility.
