ELM093200 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The ELM093200 is a 9-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for through-hole PCB mounting with angled orientation. This component operates at 300V with 10A current capacity and accommodates wire gauges from 12-28 AWG using screw-based rising cage clamp termination. The part is RoHS compliant and currently active in production. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with application requirements, particularly when inventory availability, packaging formats, or specific compliance certifications necessitate alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELM093200 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

Core Electrical Parameters: Voltage rating (300V minimum), current capacity (10A minimum), and wire gauge accommodation (12-28 AWG minimum range).

Mechanical Parameters: 9-position configuration, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing, through-hole mounting, screw-based rising cage clamp termination, and side interlocking features.

Environmental & Compliance: RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

The identified substitutes (1546074-9 and 282847-9) meet or exceed these core parameters. Both are TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan series parts with 9 positions, 5.08mm pitch, 300V rating, and screw termination. These parts demonstrate higher current capacity (17.5A) and extended wire gauge range (12-30 AWG), providing enhanced performance margins. Mating orientation differs (35° angle versus angled configuration), and housing materials vary (Polyamide PA66 versus PBT), which may affect mechanical fit and thermal characteristics in specific applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts (1546074-9 and 282847-9) are active production components with current RoHS compliance certifications. Selection between the main part and substitutes should be based on the following factors:

Electrical Performance: The substitute parts provide 17.5A current capacity compared to the main part's 10A rating, offering increased safety margin for applications approaching the 10A threshold. Wire gauge accommodation extends to 30 AWG on substitutes versus 28 AWG on the main part.

Compliance & Certifications: The main part (ELM093200) carries standard RoHS compliance. Substitute 1546074-9 carries ROHS3 certification with REACH affected status. Substitute 282847-9 carries RoHS compliance with REACH affected status. Applications requiring specific regulatory certifications should reference these designations.

Material Composition: The main part uses PBT housing material, while both substitutes use PA66 Nylon 6/6. This material difference affects thermal characteristics and mechanical properties. PBT offers superior thermal stability; PA66 provides different mechanical flexibility profiles.

Packaging & Availability: The main part is supplied in tray packaging with 845 units in stock. Substitute 1546074-9 is supplied in bulk packaging with 1171 units available. Substitute 282847-9 is supplied in bulk packaging with 2038 units available. Bulk packaging may require reel or tape-and-reel handling considerations.

Mating Orientation: The main part features angled orientation. Substitutes feature 35° (145°) angle with board orientation. PCB layout compatibility must be verified for mechanical fit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1546074-9 or 282847-9 directly replace ELM093200 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement requires verification of three factors: (1) PCB mounting hole pattern compatibility, as mating orientation differs between angled and 35° configurations; (2) thermal environment suitability, as housing material changes from PBT to PA66 affect operating characteristics; (3) current load confirmation, as the main part is rated 10A while substitutes are rated 17.5A. Electrical parameters (voltage, pitch, termination method) are compatible.

Q: What are the key differences between the substitute parts?

A: Both 1546074-9 and 282847-9 are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary difference is housing color (1546074-9 is black; 282847-9 is green) and inventory availability (282847-9 has higher stock levels at 2038 units). Both carry identical electrical ratings, pitch spacing, and termination specifications.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part ELM093200 is RoHS compliant. Substitute 1546074-9 is ROHS3 compliant. Substitute 282847-9 is RoHS compliant. Both substitutes meet RoHS requirements. Applications requiring ROHS3 certification specifically should select 1546074-9.

Q: What is the impact of housing material change from PBT to PA66?

A: PBT (main part) offers higher continuous operating temperature capability and superior dimensional stability. PA66 (substitutes) provides different mechanical flexibility and may have different moisture absorption characteristics. Both materials are suitable for 105°C maximum operating temperature. Material selection should consider specific thermal cycling and environmental exposure conditions.

Q: Can wire gauge 12-30 AWG accommodation on substitutes be used with 28 AWG wire designed for the main part?

A: Yes. The substitute parts accommodate the full 12-28 AWG range of the main part plus extended range to 30 AWG. Existing wire gauge specifications remain fully compatible.

Q: What packaging format differences exist?

A: The main part is supplied in tray packaging. Both substitutes are supplied in bulk packaging. Tray packaging typically provides individual component presentation; bulk packaging may require reel handling or tape-and-reel processing. Procurement and assembly processes may require adjustment based on packaging format.
