DAMM15PEF225 D-Sub Plug 15 Position Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DAMM15PEF225 is a 15-position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC, designed for panel mount, through-hole solder termination applications. This connector features a 2-row (DA, A) shell size configuration with male pins and signal-grade contacts. The part is currently active in production with 934 units in stock.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, obsolescence, or when design requirements permit alternative manufacturers meeting equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute parts listed below maintain compatibility with the core functional parameters of the DAMM15PEF225.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DAMM15PEF225 is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Connector Style: D-Sub
• Connector Type: Plug, Male Pins
• Number of Positions: 15
• Number of Rows: 2
• Shell Size, Connector Layout: 2 (DA, A)
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Type: Signal

All substitute parts listed below match these core parameters. Variations in secondary parameters such as shell material finish, contact material composition, current rating, operating temperature range, and regulatory compliance status are documented in the parameter comparison table. These variations do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability within the specified functional envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (Active Status, RoHS Compliant): The DAMM15PEF225 remains the preferred choice for new designs. When supply is constrained, the 627-015-220-047 (Mercury United Electronics) and 172-015-112R911 (NorComp) provide RoHS3-compliant alternatives with active or equivalent product status. Note that 172-015-112R911 is marked obsolete; verify long-term availability before design commitment.

Secondary Selection (Active Status, RoHS Non-Compliant): The M24308/24-2F and M24308/24-8F (TE Connectivity) are active military-grade alternatives compliant with MIL-DTL-24308. These parts are RoHS non-compliant and REACH-affected, suitable only for applications where regulatory exemptions apply or legacy system maintenance is required.

Current Rating Considerations: Applications requiring the full 7.5A rating of the DAMM15PEF225 should not substitute with 627-015-220-047 (3A per contact) or 172-015-112R911 (5A). The M24308/24-2F and M24308/24-8F are rated at 5A and represent a reduction in current capacity.

Temperature Range Considerations: The DAMM15PEF225 operates to 150°C. Substitute parts have lower maximum operating temperatures: 172-015-112R911 (100°C), 627-015-220-047 (85°C), and M24308/24 variants (125°C). Verify application temperature requirements before substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 172-015-112R911 be used as a direct replacement for DAMM15PEF225? A: Mechanically and electrically, yes, within the constraints of its 5A current rating and -50°C to 100°C operating range. However, 172-015-112R911 is marked obsolete. Confirm availability and long-term supply before committing to this substitute.

Q: What is the difference between the two TE Connectivity M24308/24 variants? A: M24308/24-2F and M24308/24-8F are functionally equivalent 15-position D-Sub plugs with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both comply with MIL-DTL-24308 military standards. Selection between them depends on procurement source and inventory availability.

Q: Is 627-015-220-047 suitable for high-current applications? A: No. The 627-015-220-047 is rated at 3A per contact, significantly lower than the DAMM15PEF225 (7.5A). This part is suitable only for signal-level applications with modest current requirements.

Q: Which substitute offers the best RoHS compliance? A: Both 172-015-112R911 and 627-015-220-047 are ROHS3 compliant. The DAMM15PEF225 is RoHS compliant. The M24308/24 variants are RoHS non-compliant and REACH-affected, limiting use to applications with regulatory exemptions.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts? A: Yes. DAMM15PEF225 packaging is not specified. 172-015-112R911 is supplied in trays, 627-015-220-047 in bulk, and M24308/24 variants in bulk. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in existing designs? A: Mechanical and electrical interchangeability is confirmed for all listed parts within the D-Sub 15-position, 2-row, shell size 2 (DA, A) envelope. However, verify current rating, operating temperature range, and regulatory compliance requirements specific to your application before substitution.
