Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCDX2/0-38DH-X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Wire gauge compatibility (2/0 AWG), stud size (3/8), terminal type (rectangular tongue), terminal style (two stud holes), tab thickness (0.130"), outer width (0.960"), termination method (crimp barrel), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), barrel dimensions (ID 0.510", OD 0.640"), and ring ID (0.410") must remain constant across all substitute parts.

The LCCX2/0-38D-X qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with these parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to mounting configuration and product status: the LCDX2/0-38DH-X features a 45° angle mounting orientation and is obsolete, while the LCCX2/0-38D-X provides free hanging in-line mounting and maintains active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCCX2/0-38D-X serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete LCDX2/0-38DH-X. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including wire gauge, stud size, terminal geometry, contact materials, and dimensional tolerances. Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status requirements.

The LCCX2/0-38D-X is the preferred selection for new designs and procurement activities due to its active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. The substitute part eliminates the 45° angle mounting feature present in the original part, providing a standard free hanging in-line configuration suitable for general terminal applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCCX2/0-38D-X directly replace the LCDX2/0-38DH-X in existing assemblies?

A: The LCCX2/0-38D-X provides electrical and mechanical equivalence across all critical parameters. The primary difference is the mounting configuration: the substitute removes the 45° angle feature and provides standard free hanging in-line mounting. Compatibility depends on whether the 45° angle mounting is a functional requirement in the specific application.

Q: What are the key parameters that define substitution eligibility for this terminal connector?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by equivalence in wire gauge (2/0 AWG), stud size (3/8), terminal type (rectangular tongue), terminal style (two stud holes), tab thickness (0.130"), outer width (0.960"), termination method (crimp barrel), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and all barrel and ring diameter specifications.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the main part and substitute?

A: Both the LCDX2/0-38DH-X and LCCX2/0-38D-X maintain identical compliance status: ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. No compliance trade-offs exist between these parts.

Q: Why is the LCCX2/0-38D-X recommended over the obsolete LCDX2/0-38DH-X?

A: The LCCX2/0-38D-X maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support. The obsolete status of the LCDX2/0-38DH-X creates procurement risk and potential long-term sourcing challenges.

Q: What is the significance of the mounting type difference?

A: The LCDX2/0-38DH-X includes a 45° angle mounting feature, while the LCCX2/0-38D-X provides free hanging in-line mounting. This difference affects physical orientation in the assembly but does not impact electrical performance or mechanical compatibility with the 3/8 stud connection.

Q: Are the packaging formats interchangeable?

A: The LCCX2/0-38D-X is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect component functionality or electrical performance; it relates only to order quantity and handling procedures.
