Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ED104/2DS qualifies as a direct substitute for the OSTVA020180 based on alignment across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

• Identical position count (2 positions per level)
• Matching pitch specification (5.00mm)
• Identical mating orientation (horizontal with board)
• Equivalent current and voltage ratings (15A, 300V)
• Compatible wire gauge range (14-22 AWG)
• Identical mounting method (through hole)
• Matching wire termination type (screw-leaf spring with wire guard)
• Overlapping operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 105°C)
• Identical screw thread specification (M3)
• Equivalent regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99)

The ED104/2DS is classified as active product status, providing assured long-term availability compared to the obsolete OSTVA020180.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ED104/2DS is the qualified substitute for OSTVA020180 applications. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for current and future production. The ED104/2DS offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability. Both parts carry identical electrical ratings, mechanical specifications, and operating parameters, supporting direct design substitution without circuit modification or performance degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ED104/2DS be used as a direct replacement for OSTVA020180 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The ED104/2DS meets all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications of the OSTVA020180. Both components share identical pitch, position count, current/voltage ratings, wire gauge compatibility, and operating temperature range. PCB footprints and mounting hole patterns are compatible.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The OSTVA020180 is classified as obsolete. The ED104/2DS is an active product from the same manufacturer family, providing assured long-term supply availability.

Q: Are there differences in housing material between these parts?

A: The OSTVA020180 uses thermoplastic housing, while the ED104/2DS uses polyamide (PA) nylon. Both materials provide equivalent mechanical and electrical performance within the specified operating temperature range.

Q: Do the screw torque specifications differ?

A: Yes. The OSTVA020180 specifies 0.4 Nm (4.6 Lb-In) torque, while the ED104/2DS specifies 0.8 Nm (7.1 Lb-In). Both values remain within acceptable ranges for M3 screw termination. Assembly procedures should reference the specific part datasheet for torque application.

Q: Are packaging formats different?

A: The OSTVA020180 packaging is unspecified in available data. The ED104/2DS is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement department for order specifications.

Q: Do both parts maintain the same regulatory compliance?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code 8536.90.4000.
