ED800/2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ED800/2 is a 2-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by On-Shore Technology, designed for side entry applications with a 10mm pitch and through-hole mounting. This component is classified as Active and maintains full RoHS3 compliance. Terminal blocks of this specification are essential in applications requiring reliable wire-to-PCB connections with screw termination and horizontal board orientation. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary component becomes unavailable or when inventory constraints require alternative procurement channels.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ED800/2 terminal block accepts the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 282858-2 as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Positions Per Level: 2
• Pitch: 0.394" (10.00mm)
• Mating Orientation: Horizontal with Board
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Wire Termination: Screw-based mechanism
• Screw Thread: M3
• RoHS3 Compliance: Both parts meet ROHS3 requirements

Parameter Tolerance Considerations: The 282858-2 substitute demonstrates enhanced electrical performance characteristics (24 A current, 600 V voltage) and expanded wire gauge compatibility (12-30 AWG versus 14-22 AWG), making it suitable for applications within the ED800/2 specification envelope. The substitute maintains mechanical compatibility through identical pitch, position count, and mounting methodology.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ED800/2 and 282858-2 maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance, establishing them as viable options for current design implementations. The ED800/2 serves as the primary component specification, while the 282858-2 functions as an approved substitute when supply constraints or procurement requirements necessitate alternative sourcing.

The 282858-2 substitute provides enhanced electrical performance margins (24 A versus 15 A current capacity, 600 V versus 250 V voltage rating) and expanded wire gauge acceptance (12-30 AWG versus 14-22 AWG). These characteristics position the substitute as suitable for applications operating within the ED800/2 electrical envelope.

Both components employ M3 screw termination with identical pitch and position configuration, ensuring mechanical interchangeability at the PCB level. The substitute incorporates a rising cage clamp mechanism and enhanced plating specifications (tin-plated contacts, nickel-plated clamp and screw), which may provide improved corrosion resistance in specific environmental applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines compatibility between the ED800/2 and 282858-2?

A: Mechanical and electrical compatibility is established through matching pitch (10mm), position count (2), mating orientation (horizontal with board), mounting methodology (through-hole), and screw termination (M3). Both components maintain identical footprint requirements on the PCB.

Q: Can the 282858-2 substitute be used in all ED800/2 applications?

A: The 282858-2 operates within the ED800/2 electrical specification envelope. Applications designed for ED800/2 parameters (15 A, 250 V, 14-22 AWG) are compatible with the 282858-2 substitute, which provides enhanced performance margins.

Q: What are the differences in wire gauge acceptance?

A: The ED800/2 accepts 14-22 AWG wire, while the 282858-2 accepts 12-30 AWG wire. This expanded range in the substitute allows accommodation of larger and smaller conductor sizes within a single component family.

Q: How do the screw torque specifications differ?

A: The ED800/2 specifies 0.5 Nm (4.4 Lb-In) screw torque, while the 282858-2 specifies 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In). Assembly procedures must reflect the appropriate torque specification for each component.

Q: Are both components RoHS3 compliant?

A: Both the ED800/2 and 282858-2 maintain full ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the difference in housing material composition?

A: The ED800/2 uses Polyamide (PA) Nylon, while the 282858-2 uses Polyamide (PA66) Nylon 6/6. Both materials provide suitable electrical insulation and mechanical properties for terminal block applications.
