ESLM05200 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The ESLM05200 is a 5-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for horizontal PCB mounting with 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing. This component is classified as Active product status with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Alternative equivalent parts are identified when inventory constraints occur or when design flexibility permits component sourcing from multiple qualified manufacturers while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within specified parameter tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ESLM05200 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Pitch spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) — mandatory for PCB footprint alignment
• Mating orientation: Horizontal with Board — required for mounting configuration
• Mounting type: Through Hole — determines PCB assembly process
• Wire termination method: Screw - Rising Cage Clamp — ensures connector interface compatibility
• Voltage rating: Minimum 300 V — electrical safety requirement
• Current rating: Minimum 14.6 A — electrical performance requirement
• Features: Interlocking (Side) — mechanical stability requirement

Identified Substitutes:

1. 1989405 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MKDSN series) — 6-position variant with matching pitch, orientation, and termination method. Position count difference (6 vs. 5) requires circuit design accommodation but maintains electrical and mechanical compatibility parameters.

2. 282837-5 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan series) — 5-position configuration with identical pitch, orientation, and termination method. Electrical ratings and mechanical specifications align with primary part requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ESLM05200 (Primary Selection): Recommended for new designs and applications requiring 5-position configuration with 14.6 A current capacity. Active product status with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating ensures long-term availability and regulatory compliance.

282837-5 (Preferred Substitute): Direct functional equivalent with identical position count (5), matching current rating (14.6 A), and compatible electrical specifications. Active product status and ROHS3 compliance provide equivalent regulatory standing. Wire gauge range (16-28 AWG) is narrower than primary part but covers standard industrial applications.

1989405 (Alternative Substitute): Functionally compatible for applications where 6-position configuration can be accommodated in circuit design. Current rating of 10 A is lower than primary part and must be evaluated against circuit requirements. Active product status and ROHS3 compliance are equivalent to primary part. Wire gauge range (12-30 AWG) provides broader accommodation for conductor sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 282837-5 be used as a direct replacement for ESLM05200?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical position count (5), pitch spacing (0.200"), mating orientation (Horizontal with Board), mounting type (Through Hole), and wire termination method (Screw - Rising Cage Clamp). Current and voltage ratings are equivalent (14.6 A, 300 V). Wire gauge range differs slightly (16-28 AWG vs. 14-30 AWG), which may affect conductor accommodation in specific applications.

Q: What is the primary limitation of 1989405 as a substitute?

A: The 1989405 provides 6 positions instead of 5, requiring circuit design modification to accommodate the additional position. Current rating is reduced to 10 A compared to 14.6 A for the primary part, necessitating electrical load verification. These differences require engineering evaluation before implementation.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. ESLM05200 carries RoHS Compliant status. Both 1989405 and 282837-5 carry ROHS3 Compliant status, which represents equivalent regulatory compliance for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: Do substitute parts maintain the same PCB footprint?

A: ESLM05200 and 282837-5 maintain identical footprints due to matching position count (5) and pitch spacing (0.200"). The 1989405 requires modified PCB layout due to 6-position configuration, though pitch spacing remains identical.

Q: What wire gauge considerations apply when selecting substitutes?

A: ESLM05200 accommodates 14-30 AWG wire. The 282837-5 accommodates 16-28 AWG, which excludes the 14-15 AWG and 29-30 AWG ranges. The 1989405 accommodates 12-30 AWG, providing broader range coverage. Wire gauge selection must align with circuit current requirements and available conductor sizes.
