SA1000/G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SA1000/G is a pin contact rectangular power connector manufactured by Bulgin, designed for 14 AWG wire gauge applications with nickel plating and crimp termination. This component is classified as an active product with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part specifications, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring rectangular or circular power connector pin contacts rated for 14 AWG wire gauge with crimp termination and nickel finish.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SA1000/G is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Wire Gauge: 14 AWG (equivalent to 2.0 mm²)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Contact Finish: Nickel
• Pin Contact Type
• Power Application Classification

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating
• ECCN EAR99 classification

The substitute part 0460-215-16141 (TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors) qualifies as an equivalent based on matching wire gauge (14 AWG / 2.0 mm²), crimp termination, nickel finish, and RoHS3 compliance. Although categorized as a circular connector versus rectangular, the electrical and mechanical interface parameters for the pin contact itself remain functionally equivalent for power applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SA1000/G (Primary Selection): The SA1000/G maintains active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited MSL rating. This part is recommended for new designs and applications requiring long-term supply continuity. Current inventory of 1414 pieces supports production requirements.

0460-215-16141 (Substitute Selection): The 0460-215-16141 qualifies as a functional equivalent based on matching electrical parameters (14 AWG wire gauge, crimp termination, nickel finish) and compliance certifications (RoHS3, MSL 1, EAR99). However, this part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, limiting future availability. Inventory of 728 pieces is available for immediate use. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only when connector form factor (circular versus rectangular) does not impose mechanical constraints on the application.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts satisfy RoHS3 requirements, maintain MSL 1 unlimited rating, and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, ensuring regulatory and supply chain compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0460-215-16141 directly replace the SA1000/G in all applications?

A: The 0460-215-16141 provides electrical and termination equivalence (14 AWG, crimp, nickel finish). However, the connector form factor differs (circular versus rectangular). Mechanical compatibility depends on the mating connector housing design. Verify that the circular connector body accommodates the application's physical space and mating interface requirements.

Q: What wire gauge range does the SA1000/G support?

A: The SA1000/G is specified for 14 AWG wire gauge only. The equivalent 0460-215-16141 supports the same 14 AWG specification, confirmed as 2.0 mm² cross-section.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the SA1000/G and 0460-215-16141 carry RoHS3 compliance certification. Both maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Why is the 0460-215-16141 listed as discontinued?

A: The 0460-215-16141 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, indicating limited future availability through standard distribution channels. The SA1000/G remains active and is the recommended selection for applications requiring long-term supply assurance.

Q: What is the contact finish material for both parts?

A: Both parts feature nickel contact finish. The SA1000/G specifies nickel plating on pin contacts. The 0460-215-16141 specifies nickel finish on copper alloy contacts with nickel termination finish.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in power applications?

A: Both parts are classified for power applications and share identical electrical specifications (14 AWG, crimp termination, nickel finish). Interchangeability is confirmed for electrical function. Mechanical interchangeability requires verification of connector housing compatibility and mating interface geometry.
