OSTTS09515D Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The OSTTS09515D is a 9-position terminal block plug manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc., featuring female sockets with 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing. This component is designed for screw-terminated electrical connections in free-hanging (in-line) configurations. The part is currently active in production with 733 units in stock.

Terminal block plugs are essential interconnection components in industrial control systems, machinery, and electrical distribution applications. Equivalent and substitute parts become necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, design revisions, or when alternative manufacturers offer compatible solutions that meet the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTTS09515D is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters:

• Connector Type & Configuration: 9-position plug with female sockets
• Pitch Specification: 0.200" (5.08mm) center-to-center spacing
• Termination Method: Screw-based wire termination
• Mounting Configuration: Free-hanging (in-line) orientation
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 300 V UL voltage rating
• Wire Compatibility: Support for 12-24 AWG (0.34-2.5mm²) wire gauges
• Environmental Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and ROHS3 compliance

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1835164 meets all mandatory substitution criteria while offering enhanced electrical specifications and additional mechanical features.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the OSTTS09515D and Phoenix Contact 1835164 are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial applications.

The OSTTS09515D remains the primary specification when the original design parameters are maintained and supply is available. The Phoenix Contact 1835164 serves as a qualified substitute when supply constraints require alternative sourcing. The substitute part provides expanded wire gauge compatibility (12-30 AWG versus 12-24 AWG) and enhanced termination technology through rising cage clamp design, while maintaining identical pitch spacing, connector configuration, and UL voltage rating.

Selection between these parts should be based on availability, lead time requirements, and design flexibility regarding the enhanced wire gauge range and termination mechanism of the substitute.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1835164 be used as a direct replacement for the OSTTS09515D?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 9-position configuration, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing, free-hanging mounting type, 300 V UL rating, and UL94 V-0 compliance. The substitute accommodates the full wire gauge range of the original part and exceeds it (12-30 AWG versus 12-24 AWG).

Q: What is the difference between standard screw termination and rising cage clamp termination?

A: The OSTTS09515D uses conventional screw termination. The Phoenix Contact 1835164 uses rising cage clamp technology, which provides an alternative wire insertion and retention mechanism while maintaining screw-based connection. Both methods are screw-terminated designs suitable for the same applications.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No mechanical compatibility issues exist. Both parts maintain identical pitch spacing (0.200"/5.08mm), connector type (9-position plug with female sockets), and free-hanging orientation. Physical dimensions and mating interfaces are compatible.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both the OSTTS09515D and 1835164 are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Both are classified as REACH Unaffected and carry EAR99 ECCN designation.

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

A: No. The Phoenix Contact 1835164 supports 12-30 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²), which encompasses the full 12-24 AWG range of the OSTTS09515D. Designs using 12-24 AWG wire remain fully compatible.
