Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are selected strictly based on equivalence in functional and regulatory parameters. The following key parameters are used to justify substitution: Pressure Type, Operating Pressure Range, Output Type, Supply Voltage Range, Port Style, Termination Style, Maximum Pressure, Operating Temperature Range, Package / Case, RoHS Compliance, and Moisture Sensitivity Level. Only parts matching these specified values are considered for substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DP2-21 is obsolete, while DP-101-M and DP-101A-M are active, ensuring ongoing availability. Both substitute parts are RoHS3 Compliant and have equivalent Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) ratings. These parts fulfill compliance and certification requirements for replacement in environments where regulatory conformity is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What critical parameters determine if DP-101-M or DP-101A-M is a valid substitute for DP2-21?
A1: The substitution is strictly based on Pressure Type, Operating Pressure range, Output Type, Voltage - Supply range, Port Style, Termination Style, Maximum Pressure rating, Operating Temperature range, Package / Case, RoHS Status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL).

Q2: Are there differences in mechanical compatibility between these parts?
A2: Key mechanical considerations are Port Size and Port Style. DP2-21 uses Female - 1/8" (3.18mm) BSPT, whereas DP-101-M and DP-101A-M use Female - M5.

Q3: Do substitute parts meet the same environmental and MSL criteria?
A3: DP-101-M and DP-101A-M are both ROHS3 Compliant and have a Moisture Sensitivity Level of 1 (Unlimited), matching the environmental and handling requirements of DP2-21.

Q4: Is the package/case form identical across all parts?
A4: DP2-21 utilizes "Module Box with Display." Substitute parts use "Module," which may require mechanical review for fit and installation.

Q5: How does the Output Type impact substitution?
A5: DP-101-M offers NPN - Open Collector output. DP-101A-M offers Analog Current/Voltage and NPN - Open Collector. Output type should be matched to application circuitry requirements within the parameters provided.
