Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PT01E-8-3S(SR) is based on the following critical parameters that must align for functional equivalence:

• Connector Type: Receptacle configuration with female sockets
• Number of Positions: 3-position connector
• Shell Size - Insert: 8-3 specification
• Mounting Type: Free hanging (in-line) configuration
• Termination Method: Solder termination
• Fastening Type: Bayonet lock mechanism
• Electrical Ratings: Current capacity and voltage rating compatibility
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C
• Environmental Classification: Environment resistant ingress protection

The MSW01E8-3S-SR from Milspecwest, LLC meets these core substitution criteria as a 3-position circular connector receptacle with matching shell size, mounting configuration, and electrical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PT01E-8-3S(SR) and MSW01E8-3S-SR are active product status components with current inventory availability. The MSW01E8-3S-SR is classified as a 26482 style connector and carries RoHS non-compliant status. Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements regarding regulatory compliance, packaging format (bulk versus bag), and specific environmental or military qualification needs. Both components support the same 3-position, 8-3 shell size configuration with free-hanging in-line mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes the MSW01E8-3S-SR a valid substitute for the PT01E-8-3S(SR)?
