ESLM09100 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ESLM09100 is a 9-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for horizontal PCB mounting with side entry wire connections. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS Compliant. Terminal blocks of this specification are essential in applications requiring reliable electrical connections between external wiring and printed circuit boards. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory availability, regional sourcing constraints, or specific application requirements that align with equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ESLM09100 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Position Count and Pitch: Both main and substitute parts must maintain 9 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
• Mating Orientation and Mounting: Horizontal with Board orientation and Through Hole mounting are mandatory for mechanical fit
• Electrical Ratings: Current (14.6 A) and Voltage (300 V) ratings must be met or exceeded
• Wire Termination Method: Screw-based rising cage clamp termination ensures functional compatibility
• Housing Material: Polyamide (PA66) / Nylon 6/6 construction maintains mechanical and thermal properties
• Compliance Status: Active product status and RoHS compliance are required for current applications

The substitute part 282836-9 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, Buchanan series) meets these core substitution criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ESLM09100 and 282836-9 are functionally equivalent for applications requiring 9-position, 5mm pitch terminal blocks with through-hole PCB mounting. Both parts maintain Active product status and comply with current RoHS standards (RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant respectively). Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Wire Gauge Requirements: If your application requires support for 14-15 AWG wire, the ESLM09100 is the appropriate choice. For applications limited to 16-30 AWG, either part is suitable.
• Inventory and Lead Time: ESLM09100 has 1,042 units in stock (Tray packaging); 282836-9 has 840 units in stock (Bulk packaging).
• Torque Specification: ESLM09100 specifies 0.5 Nm (4.4 Lb-In) screw torque; 282836-9 specifies 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In). Verify your assembly process can accommodate the higher torque specification if using 282836-9.
• Operating Temperature: ESLM09100 specifies -40°C ~ 110°C; 282836-9 does not specify an operating temperature range in the provided data.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 282836-9 be used as a direct replacement for ESLM09100 in all applications?

A: 282836-9 is suitable for most applications. However, if your design uses 14-15 AWG wire, only ESLM09100 supports this range. Additionally, verify that the higher screw torque specification (0.68 Nm vs. 0.5 Nm) is compatible with your assembly equipment.

Q: What is the significance of the different packaging types (Tray vs. Bulk)?

A: Packaging type affects handling, storage, and logistics. Tray packaging (ESLM09100) typically provides better component protection during shipment and storage. Bulk packaging (282836-9) may offer cost advantages for high-volume applications but requires careful handling to prevent damage.

Q: Are the contact materials interchangeable between these parts?

A: Both parts use similar contact materials with different base metals. ESLM09100 uses Copper Alloy contacts; 282836-9 uses Brass contacts. Both are tin-plated for corrosion resistance. These materials are functionally equivalent for the specified electrical ratings.

Q: Does the difference in screw thread specification affect compatibility?

A: ESLM09100 does not specify a screw thread designation; 282836-9 specifies M3. This indicates 282836-9 uses M3 metric screws. Verify your assembly process and torque tools are compatible with M3 specifications if substituting.

Q: What does RoHS3 compliance mean compared to RoHS Compliant?

A: Both designations indicate compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. ROHS3 represents the current standard (RoHS 3 Directive 2015/863/EU). Both parts meet current environmental compliance requirements.
