AT04-12PD-PM16 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AT04-12PD-PM16 is a 12-position rectangular connector receptacle housing manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp as part of the PanelMate™ AT series. This panel-mount receptacle housing features a brown thermoplastic body with IP67 rating, mounting flange, reduced wire seals, and strain relief. The connector accepts male pin contacts via crimp termination and employs a latch holder fastening mechanism. The part is currently active in production with 1177 units in stock. Equivalent substitute parts are necessary when specific color requirements differ from the primary specification or when inventory availability necessitates alternative sourcing within the same electrical and mechanical parameter set.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AT04-12PD-PM16 are determined by equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters while permitting variation in housing color. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Invariant Parameters (Must Match for Substitution):

• Manufacturer: Amphenol Sine Systems Corp
• Series: PanelMate™ AT
• Connector Type: Receptacle
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Number of Positions: 12
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Holder
• Insulation Material: Thermoplastic
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Features: IP67, Mounting Flange, Reduced Wire Seals, Strain Relief
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected
• Product Status: Active

Variable Parameter (Permitted to Differ):

• Color: Brown (AT04-12PD-PM16), Gray (AT04-12PA-PM16), Green (AT04-12PC-PM16)

All substitute parts maintain identical electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, environmental ratings, and regulatory compliance. Substitution is valid when color differentiation does not impact functional requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—AT04-12PD-PM16, AT04-12PA-PM16, and AT04-12PC-PM16—are active products with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on:

1. Color Requirement: Choose the part matching the specified housing color. Brown (AT04-12PD-PM16), Gray (AT04-12PA-PM16), or Green (AT04-12PC-PM16) variants are electrically and mechanically identical.

2. Inventory Availability: All three parts maintain active stock levels. AT04-12PD-PM16 has 1177 units available, AT04-12PC-PM16 has 1086 units, and AT04-12PA-PM16 has 824 units.

3. Regulatory Compliance: All variants satisfy identical regulatory requirements and are suitable for applications requiring ROHS3 and REACH compliance.

4. Functional Equivalence: No electrical or mechanical performance differences exist between variants. Substitution is valid for any application where color is not a functional constraint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AT04-12PA-PM16 (Gray) be used in place of AT04-12PD-PM16 (Brown)?

A: Yes, provided color differentiation is not a functional or aesthetic requirement. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters are identical. Both parts are active products with full regulatory compliance.

Q: Are the contact positions and pin arrangements identical across all three variants?

A: Yes. All variants feature 12 positions arranged in 2 rows with identical pitch, mounting configuration, and contact termination method. Male pin contacts are compatible across all three housing colors.

Q: What is the difference between AT04-12PD-PM16, AT04-12PA-PM16, and AT04-12PC-PM16?

A: The only difference is housing color: Brown, Gray, and Green respectively. All other specifications—connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting type, termination method, fastening mechanism, operating temperature range, IP67 rating, and regulatory compliance—are identical.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three variants are supplied as housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same assembly?

A: Yes, provided the application does not require specific color coding or color-based identification. The electrical and mechanical interfaces are fully compatible.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for all variants?

A: All three parts operate across -55°C to 125°C, supporting applications in extreme thermal environments.

Q: Are all variants ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. AT04-12PD-PM16, AT04-12PA-PM16, and AT04-12PC-PM16 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.
