Grayhill 62VG15-H9-P Rotary Encoder: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Grayhill 62VG15-H9-P is an optical rotary encoder with 24 pulses per revolution (PPR) in quadrature (incremental) output configuration. This vertical-mount encoder features a 1/4" diameter flatted end actuator, integrated detent mechanism, and built-in switch functionality. The encoder operates at 3.3V supply voltage and is designed for PCB through-hole mounting with PC pin termination.

The 62VG15-H9-P maintains Active product status with 902 units in current inventory. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part number is unavailable or when inventory requirements necessitate component alternatives that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 62VG15-H9-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Encoder type: Optical
• Output configuration: Quadrature (Incremental)
• Resolution: 24 pulses per revolution
• Supply voltage: 3.3V

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

• Actuator geometry: 1/4" diameter flatted end
• Detent mechanism: Present
• Built-in switch: Present
• Mounting interface: PCB through-hole
• Orientation: Vertical
• Termination: PC pin

Compliance Equivalence Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance
• REACH unaffected status
• EAR99 export classification

The substitute part 62V15-02-P meets all electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements for direct substitution. Both parts share the same base product number series (62V/62VG) and maintain identical functional specifications across all critical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 62VG15-H9-P and 62V15-02-P maintain Active product status with current manufacturing support and inventory availability. Selection between these parts is based on inventory allocation and supply chain requirements rather than technical differentiation.

Primary Part (62VG15-H9-P): 902 units in inventory. Recommended for new designs and standard procurement when availability is not constrained.

Substitute Part (62V15-02-P): 729 units in inventory. Suitable for direct substitution when primary part allocation is exhausted or when secondary sourcing is required. Maintains identical electrical performance, mechanical interface, and compliance certifications.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, confirming suitability for regulated markets and applications with environmental compliance requirements. EAR99 classification applies to both parts for export control purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 62V15-02-P be used as a direct replacement for 62VG15-H9-P in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters. The 62V15-02-P maintains identical quadrature output at 24 PPR, 3.3V supply voltage, 1/4" flatted end actuator geometry, detent mechanism, built-in switch, PCB through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. No circuit modifications or mechanical redesign is required.

Q: Are there differences in rotational life or durability between these parts?

A: No. Both parts specify 1M cycle minimum rotational life. Durability characteristics are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the 62VG and 62V series designations?

A: Both parts share the same base product number (62V15) and are manufactured by Grayhill Inc. The series designation variation does not indicate functional differences in the specified parameters. Both maintain identical encoder type, output configuration, resolution, voltage, actuator type, detent, switch, mounting, orientation, and termination.

Q: Are compliance certifications identical for both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. No compliance differences exist between the two part numbers.

Q: Which part should be selected for new procurement?

A: Selection is based on inventory availability and supply chain requirements. The 62VG15-H9-P has higher current inventory (902 units). The 62V15-02-P is available as a substitute when primary part allocation is constrained (729 units in stock). Both are suitable for new designs without technical preference.

Q: Is there any difference in packaging or termination between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging with identical PC pin termination for PCB through-hole mounting. Packaging and termination specifications are equivalent.
