Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute components for the RM15WTP-CP(8)(71) are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

• Thread Size: M16x0.75 (mechanical interface requirement)
• Cable Exit Angle: 180° (installation geometry)
• Ingress Protection Rating: IP67 (environmental sealing specification)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (storage and handling compatibility)
• Series Compatibility: RM-W and JR-W series plugs (cross-series compatibility confirmed by manufacturer)

The substitute parts JR13WCC-7(72) and JR13WCC-8(72) maintain the same thread size, cable exit angle, and ingress protection rating. Both are active products from Hirose Electric Co Ltd and are confirmed compatible with RM-W series plugs. The primary differences are shell size (13 versus 15), cable opening diameter, and material composition, which are acceptable variations within the JR-W series specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

JR13WCC-7(72) and JR13WCC-8(72) are both active products suitable for replacing the obsolete RM15WTP-CP(8)(71). Selection between these two substitutes depends on cable opening diameter requirements:

• JR13WCC-7(72): Cable opening 0.276" (7.00mm). RoHS Compliant status. Select when cable diameter accommodates 7.00mm opening.
• JR13WCC-8(72): Cable opening 0.315" (8.00mm). ROHS3 Compliant status. REACH Affected designation. Select when cable diameter accommodates 8.00mm opening.

Both substitutes maintain M16x0.75 threading, 180° cable exit geometry, and IP67 ingress protection. Both are confirmed compatible with RM-W and JR-W series plugs. The transition from shell size 15 to shell size 13 is within manufacturer-specified cross-series compatibility parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can JR13WCC-7(72) or JR13WCC-8(72) directly replace RM15WTP-CP(8)(71)?

A: Yes, both JR-W series parts are manufacturer-confirmed compatible with RM-W series plugs. The M16x0.75 threading, 180° cable exit, and IP67 ingress protection are maintained across all three parts. Shell size reduction from 15 to 13 is within acceptable substitution parameters for this product category.

Q: What is the difference between JR13WCC-7(72) and JR13WCC-8(72)?

A: The primary difference is cable opening diameter. JR13WCC-7(72) accommodates cables up to 0.276" (7.00mm), while JR13WCC-8(72) accommodates cables up to 0.315" (8.00mm). Select based on your cable diameter specification. JR13WCC-8(72) carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected designations, while JR13WCC-7(72) is RoHS Compliant.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: Yes. RM15WTP-CP(8)(71) packaging is not specified. JR13WCC-7(72) and JR13WCC-8(72) are packaged in bags. Both substitute parts include 5 pieces per package: 1 cable clamp, 1 gasket, 2 screws, and 1 washer. RM15WTP-CP(8)(71) includes 4 pieces: 2 clamps, 1 gasket, and 1 washer.

Q: Do the substitutes maintain the same environmental protection rating?

A: Yes. All three parts maintain IP67 ingress protection (dust tight, waterproof). Moisture Sensitivity Level remains 1 (Unlimited) across all parts.

Q: What compliance considerations apply to each substitute?

A: JR13WCC-7(72) is RoHS Compliant with unspecified REACH status. JR13WCC-8(72) is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected. The original RM15WTP-CP(8)(71) is REACH Unaffected. Verify compliance requirements for your specific application before selection.
