Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AFD54-14-19PN are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 19
• Shell Size - Insert: 14-19
• Connector Type: Receptacle for Male Pins
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount
• Mounting Feature: Bulkhead - Front Side Nut
• Fastening Type: Bayonet Lock
• Termination Method: Crimp
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 200°C
• Ingress Protection: Environment Resistant

The substitute part PV74W14-19PL meets all mandatory matching parameters. Both connectors are designed for identical mechanical and electrical interface requirements, allowing direct substitution in applications where the AFD54-14-19PN is specified.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

AFD54-14-19PN (TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors):

• Product Status: Discontinued at DiGi Electronics
• Current Inventory: 982 pieces available
• Suitable for existing stock applications and legacy system support where original part specification is required
• RoHS non-compliant; appropriate for military and aerospace applications where RoHS exemptions apply

PV74W14-19PL (ITT Cannon, LLC):

• Product Status: Active
• Current Inventory: 903 pieces available
• Recommended for new designs and ongoing production requirements
• Meets all functional and mechanical requirements of the AFD54-14-19PN
• RoHS non-compliant; appropriate for military and aerospace applications where RoHS exemptions apply
• Provides long-term availability and supply chain continuity

Both connectors comply with identical environmental and operational specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on product lifecycle requirements and supply chain strategy rather than technical performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PV74W14-19PL directly replace the AFD54-14-19PN in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for number of positions (19), shell size (14-19), mounting configuration (panel mount bulkhead), fastening method (bayonet lock), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 200°C). The mechanical and electrical interfaces are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the AFD54-14-19PN and PV74W14-19PL?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (TE Connectivity versus ITT Cannon) and product status (discontinued versus active). The AFD54-14-19PN uses nickel-finished aluminum shell with gold-plated mating contacts. The PV74W14-19PL uses chromate over cadmium finish on aluminum alloy shell. Both provide environment-resistant protection and support identical crimp termination and operating conditions.

Q: Are contacts included with the PV74W14-19PL?

A: No. The PV74W14-19PL is supplied as a receptacle housing only, with contacts not included. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing. The AFD54-14-19PN specification should be verified to confirm whether contacts are included in that part number.

Q: What is the significance of the shell size designation "14-19"?

A: The shell size 14-19 indicates the connector insert diameter and position count. This designation is standardized under MIL-DTL-26482 specifications and ensures mechanical compatibility between mating connectors. Both substitute parts use identical shell sizing.

Q: Are both connectors suitable for military and aerospace applications?

A: Yes. Both the AFD54-14-19PN and PV74W14-19PL are rated for aviation, automotive, and military applications. Both are RoHS non-compliant, which is appropriate for military and aerospace specifications that typically require exemptions from RoHS restrictions.

Q: What is the current rating for these connectors?

A: The AFD54-14-19PN is rated for 7.5A. This specification should be verified for the PV74W14-19PL to confirm identical current-carrying capacity in the application.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-temperature environments?

A: Yes. Both connectors operate across the temperature range of -55°C to 200°C, making them suitable for high-temperature aerospace and automotive applications.
