Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M80-330 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer and Series: Both parts must originate from Harwin Inc. within the Datamate Mix-Tek series to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility within the connector ecosystem.
• Functional Type: Pin contact configuration for power applications.
• Contact Termination Method: Solder termination to PCB.
• Contact Finish: Gold plating for corrosion resistance and electrical performance.
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 classification indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints.
• REACH Compliance Status: REACH Unaffected designation must be maintained.

The M80-331 satisfies all substitution criteria as an active equivalent part within the same product family.
