KPT08F14-5S Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The KPT08F14-5S is a 5-position circular connector plug manufactured by ITT Cannon, LLC, featuring female sockets with solder cup termination. This connector operates within the 26482 Style Series I & MIL BAT category and is designed for applications requiring bayonet lock fastening and free hanging in-line or right angle mounting configurations. The part maintains active product status with 656 units in current inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part's specifications, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the original part becomes unavailable or inventory constraints necessitate alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the KPT08F14-5S is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 5
• Shell Size - Insert: 14-5
• Connector Type: Plug, Female Sockets
• Fastening Type: Bayonet Lock
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle
• Current Rating: 13A
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Ingress Protection: Environment Resistant
• Features: Strain Relief

Allowable Variations:

• Shell Material: Aluminum or Aluminum Alloy
• Shell Finish: Cadmium or Olive Drab Cadmium
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold or Cadmium
• Termination: Solder Cup or Solder
• Voltage Rating: Minimum 800V (KPT08F14-5S rated 1000VAC/1400VDC; substitute rated 800V)

The MSW08E14-5S-SR qualifies as a substitute part based on these criteria, maintaining compatibility across all mandatory parameters while operating within acceptable electrical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the KPT08F14-5S and MSW08E14-5S-SR maintain active product status and are manufactured to military specifications within the 26482 Style connector family. Selection between these parts should be based on application voltage requirements and contact finish specifications.

The KPT08F14-5S provides gold contact finish mating surfaces and higher voltage rating (1000VAC/1400VDC), suitable for applications requiring enhanced corrosion resistance and elevated electrical stress conditions.

The MSW08E14-5S-SR offers cadmium contact finish and 800V rating with greater inventory availability (900 units versus 656 units). This substitute is appropriate for applications operating within 800V electrical specifications where cadmium contact finish meets performance requirements.

Both parts are RoHS non-compliant and classified under ECCN EAR99. Termination differences (solder cup versus solder) do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability in bayonet lock applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MSW08E14-5S-SR replace KPT08F14-5S in all applications?

A: MSW08E14-5S-SR is mechanically and electrically compatible with KPT08F14-5S for applications operating at or below 800V. Applications requiring voltage ratings above 800V must use the KPT08F14-5S or verify that the MSW08E14-5S-SR meets specific circuit voltage specifications.

Q: What is the difference between solder cup and solder termination?

A: Both termination types are compatible within this connector family. Solder cup provides a recessed termination point, while solder termination offers direct solder connection. Selection depends on PCB design and assembly process requirements.

Q: Are the shell finish differences significant?

A: Shell finish differences (Olive Drab Cadmium versus Cadmium) do not affect electrical performance. Selection should be based on environmental exposure requirements and corrosion resistance specifications for the intended application.

Q: Does contact finish affect interchangeability?

A: Contact finish (Gold versus Cadmium) affects corrosion resistance and mating surface durability. Gold contact finish provides superior corrosion resistance. Verify that cadmium contact finish meets application environmental and reliability requirements before substitution.

Q: Are both parts suitable for military applications?

A: Both parts are manufactured to military specifications within the 26482 Style connector series and are classified as military-grade components. Confirm compliance with specific military standards required by your application.
