Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EDZ950/6 is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters:

Connector Type & Configuration: 6-position plug with female sockets
Pitch Specification: 0.200" (5.08mm) center-to-center spacing
Termination Method: Screw-based wire termination
Mounting Configuration: Free-hanging (in-line) orientation
Electrical Rating: 300 V UL voltage rating minimum
Wire Gauge Compatibility: Support for 12 AWG minimum wire gauge
Compliance: RoHS3 and REACH compliance status
Operating Temperature Range: -30°C minimum to 105°C maximum

The two substitute parts listed below meet these core substitution criteria while maintaining functional equivalence for standard terminal block plug applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status and meet RoHS3 compliance requirements, qualifying them for use in applications subject to environmental regulations. The EDZ950/6 and OSTTJ065153 are both manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc. and share identical pitch, voltage rating, and operating temperature specifications. The OSTTJ065153 extends wire gauge compatibility to 24 AWG and includes retention latches on the non-wire side.

The 796634-6 from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors (Buchanan series) provides the broadest wire gauge range (12-30 AWG) and extended operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C). This part employs a rising cage clamp termination mechanism and includes retention latches. The 796634-6 is suitable for applications requiring wider gauge accommodation or enhanced temperature performance.

Selection between these substitutes should be based on specific application requirements regarding wire gauge range, termination mechanism preference, and temperature operating envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can OSTTJ065153 directly replace EDZ950/6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 6-position configuration, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, 300 V UL rating, and -30°C ~ 105°C operating temperature range. The OSTTJ065153 supports an extended wire gauge range (12-24 AWG versus 12-22 AWG) and includes retention latches, making it functionally compatible for standard terminal block plug applications.

Q: What are the key differences between the 796634-6 and the EDZ950/6?

A: The 796634-6 differs in three primary areas: termination mechanism (rising cage clamp versus standard screw), wire gauge range (12-30 AWG versus 12-22 AWG), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C versus -30°C ~ 105°C). All other core parameters including pitch, voltage rating, and position count remain identical.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The EDZ950/6, OSTTJ065153, and 796634-6 all maintain ROHS3 Compliant status, meeting environmental compliance requirements for regulated applications.

Q: Which substitute part offers the widest wire gauge compatibility?

A: The 796634-6 supports 12-30 AWG wire gauges, providing the broadest range among the three options. The OSTTJ065153 supports 12-24 AWG, and the EDZ950/6 supports 12-22 AWG.

Q: Do these parts require different screw torque specifications?

A: Yes. The EDZ950/6 specifies 0.5 Nm (4.4 Lb-In) torque, the OSTTJ065153 specifies 0.56 Nm (5.0 Lb-In), and the 796634-6 specifies 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In). Application-specific torque requirements should be verified during installation.

Q: Are retention latches present on all three parts?

A: No. The EDZ950/6 does not list retention latches as a feature. Both the OSTTJ065153 and 796634-6 include retention latches on the non-wire side for enhanced mechanical stability.
