Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Amphenol CONEC 43-00105 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle, Male Pins
• Number of Positions: 5
• Shell Size - Insert: M12-5
• Termination: Screw
• Fastening Type: Threaded
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle
• Current Rating: 4A
• Voltage Rating: 60V
• Ingress Protection: IP67
• Operating Temperature Range: -30°C to 85°C
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Shell Material: Polyamide (PA6), Nylon 6, Glass Filled
• Shielding: Unshielded
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Cable Opening dimensions
• Product Status (Obsolete to Active transition)
• Packaging configuration
• Inventory availability

The substitute part 43-00106 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 43-00105 while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol CONEC 43-00106 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 43-00105 model. Both connectors maintain identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and regulatory compliance certifications.

Selection Basis:

The 43-00106 is recommended for new designs and replacement applications due to its active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

The cable opening specification difference (43-00105: 4.00mm–6.00mm; 43-00106: 6.00mm–8.00mm) accommodates a wider range of cable gauges in the substitute part. This variation does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility when the cable diameter falls within the overlapping range of 6.00mm.

Current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, contact finish, and ingress protection ratings are identical across both parts, confirming full functional equivalence for all specified applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 43-00106 directly replace the 43-00105 in existing installations?

A: Yes. The 43-00106 maintains identical connector type, pin count, shell size, termination method, electrical ratings, and environmental sealing specifications. Direct substitution is supported for all applications where the 43-00105 was originally specified.

Q: What is the significance of the different cable opening ranges?

A: The 43-00105 accommodates cables with diameters from 4.00mm to 6.00mm. The 43-00106 accommodates cables from 6.00mm to 8.00mm. For cables within the 6.00mm overlap range, both parts are interchangeable. For cables smaller than 6.00mm, the 43-00105 specification must be verified. For cables larger than 6.00mm, the 43-00106 is required.

Q: Why is the 43-00105 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence typically reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions. The 43-00106 represents the active continuation of this connector series within Amphenol CONEC's product line.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, EAR99 export classification, and HTSUS coding. Regulatory and environmental compliance requirements are fully met by either part.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these connectors?

A: Both the 43-00105 and 43-00106 carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: Are these connectors shielded?

A: No. Both the 43-00105 and 43-00106 are unshielded connectors. Applications requiring electromagnetic shielding require alternative connector designs.

Q: What termination method is used?

A: Both connectors use screw termination with threaded fastening. This method provides secure wire attachment suitable for industrial and harsh environment applications.
