Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The A-DSF 15 LPIII/FP qualifies as a direct substitute for the A-DSF15LPIII/FP-R based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical connector type, pin configuration, and shell size
• Matching termination method (IDC, Ribbon Cable)
• Identical electrical ratings (3A current, 250V voltage)
• Identical operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C)
• Identical wire gauge specification (26-28 AWG)
• Identical dielectric material and flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Identical mounting configuration (Free Hanging, In-Line)

The primary difference is product status: the original part is obsolete, while the substitute is active. The substitute is available in tray packaging with higher inventory availability.
