EL1M112B00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EL1M112B00 is an 11-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by Amphenol PCD. This horizontal-mount component features a 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch and is designed for through-hole PCB applications with screw-based wire termination. The part is currently active in production and widely used in industrial control, power distribution, and signal routing applications where reliable wire-to-board connections are required. Substitute parts may be necessary due to inventory constraints, lead time considerations, or specific application requirements that align with alternative manufacturer specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 1-282857-1 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, Buchanan series) qualifies as a direct equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

  • 11-position configuration matching the main part
  • Identical 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch for PCB footprint compatibility
  • Horizontal with board mating orientation
  • Through-hole mounting type
  • Screw-based rising cage clamp wire termination
  • Wire gauge range of 12-30 AWG
  • 300 V voltage rating
  • Identical torque specification of 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In)

The substitute part exceeds the current rating (24 A vs. 20 A) and maintains equivalent mechanical and electrical performance within the specified parameter envelope.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the EL1M112B00 and 1-282857-1 are active production parts with current inventory availability. The EL1M112B00 maintains RoHS compliance, while the substitute part 1-282857-1 meets the more stringent ROHS3 standard and is REACH-affected. Selection between these parts should be based on:

  • Regulatory compliance requirements specific to the end application
  • Inventory availability and lead time constraints
  • Packaging requirements (Tray vs. Bulk)
  • Color specification needs (Black vs. Green housing)
  • Housing material preference (Copper Alloy vs. Brass contact materials)

The substitute part's higher current rating (24 A) provides additional margin for applications operating near the 20 A specification of the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-282857-1 be used as a direct replacement for EL1M112B00 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (11), mounting type (through-hole), and wire termination method (screw rising cage clamp). PCB footprints are compatible.

Q: Are there differences in wire gauge compatibility?

A: No. Both parts accept 12-30 AWG wire, ensuring equivalent wire termination capability.

Q: What is the significance of the current rating difference (20 A vs. 24 A)?

A: The substitute part's 24 A rating exceeds the main part's 20 A specification. This provides additional current-carrying capacity and may be advantageous in applications approaching the 20 A limit.

Q: Do the parts have different operating temperature ranges?

A: The main part specifies 105°C operating temperature. The substitute part does not provide an operating temperature specification in the available data.

Q: How do the packaging formats differ?

A: EL1M112B00 is supplied in Tray packaging, while 1-282857-1 is supplied in Bulk packaging. This affects handling, storage, and inventory management but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. EL1M112B00 is RoHS Compliant, and 1-282857-1 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet RoHS requirements.
