OSTTS06715D Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The OSTTS06715D is a 6-position terminal block plug manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc., designed for screw termination applications with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch spacing. This active product features female sockets with 270° wire entry orientation and supports wire gauges from 12-24 AWG (0.34-2.5mm²). The component is rated for 300V UL operation across a temperature range of -30°C to 105°C and complies with UL94 V-0 flammability standards. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with application requirements, enabling component sourcing flexibility while maintaining functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTTS06715D is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: Both main and substitute parts must maintain 6 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with mating connectors.
• Connector Type: Female socket plugs with screw termination are required for functional equivalence.
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging (in-line) mounting type must be preserved.
• Voltage Rating: Minimum 300V UL rating is required for equivalent electrical performance.
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Wire gauge range must accommodate 12-24 AWG (0.34-2.5mm²) applications.
• Flammability Compliance: UL94 V-0 rating is mandatory for safety equivalence.
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status must be maintained.

The substitute part 1835517 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MVSTBR series) meets these core substitution criteria while introducing design variations in wire entry orientation (90° vs. 270°), termination mechanism (rising cage clamp vs. standard screw), and expanded wire gauge support (12-30 AWG).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between OSTTS06715D and 1835517 is based on application-specific requirements and design constraints:

OSTTS06715D is appropriate for applications requiring 270° wire entry orientation with standard screw termination. This configuration is suitable for designs where wire routing follows the plug's natural orientation and where conventional screw-based clamping meets performance requirements.

1835517 provides an alternative with 90° wire entry orientation and rising cage clamp termination technology. This configuration accommodates applications requiring perpendicular wire routing and offers enhanced wire retention through cage clamp design. The expanded wire gauge range (12-30 AWG vs. 12-24 AWG) provides additional flexibility for smaller gauge applications. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring regulatory equivalence.

The selection decision should prioritize mechanical fit within the enclosure or panel layout, wire routing geometry, and termination method compatibility with existing assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1835517 directly replace OSTTS06715D in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement requires verification of wire entry orientation compatibility. The OSTTS06715D features 270° wire entry, while 1835517 provides 90° wire entry. Physical fit within the enclosure and wire routing path must be confirmed before substitution.

Q: Are both parts electrically equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain 6 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, 300V UL rating, and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance. Electrical performance is equivalent for applications within the specified wire gauge and voltage parameters.

Q: What is the difference in termination technology?

A: OSTTS06715D uses standard screw termination, while 1835517 employs rising cage clamp technology. Rising cage clamp provides mechanical wire retention during insertion and removal. Both methods achieve equivalent electrical connection when properly torqued or engaged.

Q: Does the expanded wire gauge range of 1835517 affect compatibility?

A: The 1835517 supports 12-30 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) compared to OSTTS06715D's 12-24 AWG (0.34-2.5mm²). This expanded range does not affect compatibility with existing 12-24 AWG applications; it provides additional flexibility for smaller gauge wire applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both OSTTS06715D and 1835517 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component sourcing.

Q: What packaging is available for both parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for production assembly and component inventory management.
