Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA is determined by strict equivalence in the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (30)
• Pitch and row spacing (0.039" / 1.00mm)
• Mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Contact finish and material (Gold-plated Phosphor Bronze)
• Current rating (2.8A per Contact)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)
• Flammability and compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The identified substitute part CLM-115-02-L-D differs only in packaging configuration (Bulk versus Tray), which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in the application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and REACH unaffected status. Current inventory levels are 1147 units for CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA and 1336 units for CLM-115-02-L-D.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA and CLM-115-02-L-D electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical, with the same contact configuration, pitch, current rating, and operating temperature range. The only difference is packaging format.

Q: What is the difference between Tray and Bulk packaging?

A: Tray packaging (CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA) provides organized component presentation suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly. Bulk packaging (CLM-115-02-L-D) provides loose components in larger quantities. The choice depends on assembly process requirements and handling procedures.

Q: Can I use CLM-115-02-L-D as a direct replacement for CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA in production?

A: Direct substitution is possible from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, assembly process compatibility must be verified, as packaging format affects handling and placement procedures.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both CLM-115-02-LM-D-PA and CLM-115-02-L-D are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected.

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

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements.
