Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTVF065151 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Position Configuration: 6 positions arranged as 3 positions per level across 2 levels
• Pitch Spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) center-to-center distance
• Connector Type: Header with male pins, 4-side shrouded design
• Orientation: 90° right-angle through-hole mounting
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 15 A (UL) current capacity and 300 V (UL) voltage rating
• Termination: Solder attachment to PCB
• Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The substitute part 1842076 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MDSTBA series) meets all these critical parameters, enabling direct functional equivalence in applications requiring this terminal block header specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the OSTVF065151 and 1842076 are active production components with full compliance to UL94 V-0 flammability standards and RoHS requirements. The OSTVF065151 maintains ROHS3 compliance, while the 1842076 maintains RoHS compliance. Both components are rated for identical electrical performance under UL standards (15 A, 300 V) and share identical mechanical dimensions and pitch specifications.

Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain availability, lead time requirements, and procurement preferences. The Phoenix Contact 1842076 offers the additional feature of side stacking capability and tin contact mating finish. Both components are suitable for applications requiring reliable terminal block header functionality with equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1842076 be used as a direct replacement for the OSTVF065151?

A: Yes. Both components share identical position configuration (6 positions, 3 per level), pitch spacing (5.08mm), orientation (90° right-angle), shrouding design (4-side), and electrical ratings (15 A UL, 300 V UL). Through-hole solder termination and PCB footprint compatibility are equivalent.

Q: Are there differences in contact material or finish between these parts?

A: The OSTVF065151 specifies brass contact material. The 1842076 specifies tin contact mating finish. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and equivalent electrical performance.

Q: What is the significance of the side stacking feature on the 1842076?

A: Side stacking capability on the 1842076 allows multiple terminal block headers to be mounted adjacent to one another with mechanical interlocking. This feature does not affect direct substitution compatibility but may provide design flexibility in applications requiring multiple terminal blocks in close proximity.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both components meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and RoHS compliance. The OSTVF065151 carries ROHS3 certification, while the 1842076 carries RoHS certification. Both are suitable for applications with equivalent regulatory requirements.

Q: Are the mechanical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components share identical insulation height (0.933" / 23.70mm), pitch spacing (5.08mm), and 90° right-angle orientation. PCB footprint compatibility is equivalent.
