OSTVI074150 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The OSTVI074150 is a 7-position wire-to-board terminal block manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc., designed for vertical PCB mounting with 7.5mm pitch spacing. This component features screw-based rising cage clamp termination and is rated for 16A at 300V operation across a -30°C to 105°C temperature range. The OSTVI074150 is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the OSTVI074150 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Position count and pitch: Both parts maintain 7 positions at 0.295" (7.50mm) spacing, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility
Electrical ratings: Current (16A) and voltage (300V) specifications are identical
Mounting configuration: Vertical with board orientation and through-hole mounting type match exactly
Termination method: Screw-based rising cage clamp termination is consistent
Temperature range: Operating range of -30°C to 105°C is maintained
Screw specification: M3 thread size is identical

The ED360/7 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Differences in wire gauge acceptance range (12-22 AWG vs. 12-28 AWG), housing material composition, clamp material plating, and torque specification do not preclude substitution when wire gauges remain within the 12-22 AWG overlap range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ED360/7 is the designated substitute for the obsolete OSTVI074150. Both components are manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc. and maintain identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and mounting specifications. The ED360/7 carries active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for new designs and legacy system support. The ED360/7 is currently in stock with 1080 units available, providing immediate procurement capability.

When selecting the ED360/7 as a replacement, verify that wire gauges in your application fall within the 12-22 AWG range, which represents the overlap between both specifications. Applications utilizing wire gauges larger than 22 AWG require design review to confirm compatibility with the substitute part's wire gauge limitation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ED360/7 be used as a direct replacement for OSTVI074150 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (7.5mm), position count (7), electrical ratings (16A/300V), mounting orientation, and termination method. The ED360/7 is electrically and mechanically compatible when wire gauges remain within the 12-22 AWG range.

Q: What is the primary difference between OSTVI074150 and ED360/7?

A: The OSTVI074150 accepts wire gauges from 12-28 AWG, while ED360/7 accepts 12-22 AWG. The ED360/7 also differs in housing material composition (Polyamide/Nylon vs. Thermoplastic) and clamp material plating (Copper vs. Brass). These differences do not affect substitution when wire gauge requirements fall within the 12-22 AWG overlap.

Q: Why is OSTVI074150 listed as obsolete?

A: The OSTVI074150 has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The ED360/7 represents the active product line equivalent and is the recommended replacement for procurement and design continuity.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: OSTVI074150 is supplied in standard packaging, while ED360/7 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both maintain identical component specifications and performance characteristics.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both OSTVI074150 and ED360/7 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8536.90.4000.
