Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ESLM02100 and 282836-2 are classified as equivalent substitutes based on the following critical parameters:

  • Electrical Compatibility: Both parts maintain 14.6 A current rating and 300 V voltage rating
  • Mechanical Configuration: Identical 2-position, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, horizontal with board orientation
  • Termination Method: Both use screw-based rising cage clamp wire termination
  • Mounting: Through-hole PCB mounting with side entry interlocking features
  • Housing Material: Both constructed from Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
  • Product Status: Both parts are active in production

Substitution is valid when the application requirements do not exceed the specified electrical and mechanical parameters of either part.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ESLM02100 and 282836-2 are active production parts with full regulatory compliance. The ESLM02100 carries RoHS compliance certification, while 282836-2 meets ROHS3 compliance standards and is REACH affected. Selection between these parts should be based on:

  • Regulatory Requirements: Applications requiring ROHS3 compliance should specify 282836-2; RoHS compliance is satisfied by either part
  • Wire Gauge Compatibility: The ESLM02100 accommodates 14-30 AWG, while 282836-2 supports 16-30 AWG. Applications requiring 14-15 AWG wire termination must use ESLM02100
  • Supply Chain Availability: 282836-2 has significantly higher inventory (120,243 units) compared to ESLM02100 (905 units)
  • Contact Material Specification: ESLM02100 uses copper alloy contacts; 282836-2 uses brass contacts. Material selection may be driven by specific application corrosion or conductivity requirements

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 282836-2 replace ESLM02100 in all applications?

A: 282836-2 is a functional substitute for most applications. However, if your design requires 14-15 AWG wire termination capability, ESLM02100 must be used, as 282836-2 supports only 16-30 AWG.

Q: What is the difference in screw torque specifications between these parts?

A: ESLM02100 specifies 0.5 Nm (4.4 Lb-In) screw torque, while 282836-2 specifies 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In). These values are provided for reference; consult assembly procedures for your specific application.

Q: Are both parts suitable for -40°C to 110°C operating environments?

A: ESLM02100 is rated for -40°C to 110°C operation. Operating temperature range for 282836-2 is not specified in the provided data.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: ESLM02100 is supplied in tray packaging; 282836-2 is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection may affect handling, storage, and assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
