Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the MHE-135 is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Pitch spacing: 5mm
  • Position count: 5
  • Connector type: Wire to Board Terminal Block
  • Current rating: 15A minimum
  • Voltage rating: 250V minimum
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Mechanical compatibility: PCB mounting configuration

The substitute part 30.755 maintains functional equivalence through matching pitch, position count, voltage rating, and compliance certifications. Both components are manufactured by Altech Corporation and share identical electrical and mechanical interface requirements for PCB integration.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 30.755 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete MHE-135. Both components maintain identical pitch spacing, position configuration, and voltage specifications. The substitute part is currently in Active product status with confirmed inventory availability (1176 Pcs New Original In Stock), ensuring procurement reliability.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The 30.755 operates at 15A continuous current, which is within the operational envelope of the original 16A specification. Electrical and mechanical interface compatibility is maintained across both components, supporting direct PCB layout substitution without redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 30.755 directly replace the MHE-135 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical 5mm pitch spacing, 5-position configuration, and 250V voltage rating. PCB footprints and mounting requirements are compatible without modification.

Q: What is the current rating difference between these parts?

A: The MHE-135 is rated for 16A, while the 30.755 is rated for 15A. For applications operating below 15A continuous current, the substitute part meets all electrical requirements.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, maintaining identical regulatory status.

Q: Why is the MHE-135 listed as Obsolete?

A: The MHE-135 has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The 30.755 represents the active product line continuation for this terminal block category.

Q: What packaging is available for the 30.755?

A: The 30.755 is supplied in Bulk packaging configuration.
