Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PT07E-8-3S(SR) is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Shell Size and Insert Configuration: 8-3 specification ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility with mating connectors
• Number of Positions: 3-position requirement maintains pin count and contact arrangement
• Connector Category: Circular connector classification ensures form factor compatibility
• Receptacle Configuration: Female socket arrangement for mating with plug-type connectors

The identified substitute part MSW07E8-3S-SR meets these core substitution criteria. Both parts share the same shell size-insert designation (8-3), identical position count (3), and receptacle configuration with female sockets. The substitute is manufactured by Milspecwest, LLC and is classified within the 26482 Style Connectors series, which maintains compatibility with the same mating interface standards.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the PT07E-8-3S(SR) and MSW07E8-3S-SR are active product status components, confirming ongoing manufacturer support and availability. The PT07E-8-3S(SR) maintains primary sourcing status with 712 units in current inventory. The MSW07E8-3S-SR serves as a qualified substitute with 839 units available, providing secondary sourcing capability.

The MSW07E8-3S-SR is classified as RoHS non-compliant, which may impact selection in applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. The PT07E-8-3S(SR) compliance status is not specified in available documentation.

Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements including regulatory compliance mandates, procurement lead time constraints, and inventory availability at the time of component selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if MSW07E8-3S-SR can substitute for PT07E-8-3S(SR)?

A: Substitution is valid when both parts share identical shell size-insert configuration (8-3), position count (3), and receptacle configuration with female sockets. Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between these parts?

A: Yes. The PT07E-8-3S(SR) is supplied in bulk packaging, while the MSW07E8-3S-SR is supplied in bag packaging. Packaging format may affect handling, storage, and inventory management procedures.

Q: What is the difference in current inventory levels?

A: The PT07E-8-3S(SR) has 712 units in stock, while the MSW07E8-3S-SR has 839 units available. Inventory levels may change and should be verified at the time of procurement.

Q: Does RoHS compliance status affect substitution eligibility?

A: RoHS compliance is a regulatory requirement determined by application and end-use jurisdiction, not a substitution criterion. The MSW07E8-3S-SR is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations must verify compliance requirements independently.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in the same assembly?

A: Both parts share the same shell size-insert specification (8-3) and position count (3), which are the primary mechanical and electrical compatibility parameters. Interchangeability depends on application-specific requirements including termination method, mounting configuration, and regulatory compliance mandates.
