Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 292469-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Connector style: D-Sub, high-density configuration
• Position count: 15 positions in 3-row layout
• Shell size: 1 (DE, E) high-density standard
• Contact type: Signal contacts
• Current rating: 2A minimum
• Voltage rating: 125V minimum

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Connector type: Receptacle with female sockets
• Mounting: Through-hole solder termination
• Flange configuration: Mating-side female screwlock (4-40)
• Features: Board lock functionality
• Shell material: Steel construction
• Color: Black

Regulatory & Environmental:

• Material flammability: UL94 V-0
• RoHS3 compliance
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute parts HARTING 09561515513 and HARTING 09561517513 satisfy all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both are active products with confirmed inventory availability and maintain the required connector geometry, contact configuration, and termination method.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes:

Both HARTING 09561515513 and HARTING 09561517513 are qualified substitutes for the obsolete TE Connectivity 292469-1. Selection between these two HARTING alternatives is based on the following criteria:

HARTING 09561515513 is recommended when contact finish specification is critical to the application. This part explicitly specifies gold or gold-palladium contact finish with 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness, providing documented contact resistance characteristics and corrosion resistance properties.

HARTING 09561517513 is suitable for applications where contact finish specification is not explicitly required in design documentation. This part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering higher inventory availability (1921 units versus 1449 units).

Compliance Considerations:

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), ensuring regulatory equivalence with the original part. Both are classified as REACH Unaffected, confirming environmental compliance status.

Temperature Operating Range:

The substitute parts operate within -40°C to 85°C, which is narrower than the original part's -55°C to 105°C range. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 85°C require engineering evaluation to confirm substitute suitability.

Packaging:

Both HARTING substitutes are supplied in tray packaging, differing from the original part's unspecified packaging. PCB assembly processes must accommodate tray-based component handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HARTING 09561515513 and HARTING 09561517513 be used interchangeably in the same application?

A: Both parts are mechanically and electrically equivalent for standard signal applications. The primary difference is contact finish specification. HARTING 09561515513 explicitly specifies gold or gold-palladium finish with documented thickness, while HARTING 09561517513 does not specify contact finish. Selection depends on whether contact finish is a design requirement. Both maintain 2A current rating, 125V voltage capability, and identical connector geometry.

Q: What is the impact of the narrower operating temperature range on substitution?

A: The substitute parts operate from -40°C to 85°C, compared to the original part's -55°C to 105°C range. Applications operating within the -40°C to 85°C window experience no thermal limitation. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 85°C must be evaluated separately to determine if the narrower range is acceptable for the specific use case.

Q: Are the shell material differences (tin plated versus nickel plated) significant?

A: Both finishes provide corrosion protection on steel shells. Tin plating (original part) and nickel plating (substitute parts) are both standard industrial finishes for D-Sub connectors. The nickel-plated finish of the substitute parts is compatible with standard PCB assembly and environmental conditions. No functional difference exists for typical signal applications.

Q: What is the significance of the dielectric material change from thermoplastic to PBT polyester glass-filled?

A: Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain electrical insulation properties. Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) with glass filling provides enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability compared to general thermoplastic. This material change represents an improvement in connector robustness without compromising electrical performance.

Q: How does packaging format affect component procurement and assembly?

A: The original part packaging is unspecified, while substitute parts are supplied in tray packaging. Tray packaging is standard for automated PCB assembly processes and is compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment. No assembly process modification is required for tray-packaged components.

Q: Are both HARTING substitutes actively manufactured?

A: Both HARTING 09561515513 and HARTING 09561517513 are classified as active products with confirmed current inventory (1449 and 1921 units respectively). Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support, eliminating obsolescence risk associated with the original TE Connectivity part.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute parts?

A: Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, and MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). Both are classified as REACH Unaffected. These certifications ensure regulatory equivalence with the original part for industrial and commercial applications.
