SP20W1F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SP20W1F is a pin contact circular connector component manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp, designed for signal applications in the ecomate® RM series. This component is a stamped pin contact rated for 20-22 AWG wire gauges with crimp termination and gold finish. The part is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where compatibility is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SP20W1F is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Contact Size: 20
• Wire Gauge Range: 20-22 AWG (0.34 ~ 0.5mm²)
• Contact Type: Pin, Stamped
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: Flash
• Features: Insulation Support
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The SP20W1F shares its base product number (SP20) with substitute components. Substitutes within this grouping maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while potentially differing in series designation, product status, and packaging configuration. The obsolete status of the SP20W1F necessitates substitution with active production alternatives that preserve all functional parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SP20W2F serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete SP20W1F. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including contact size, wire gauge compatibility, termination method, material composition, and finish specifications. The SP20W2F is currently in active production status with substantial inventory availability (22,636 pieces), ensuring supply chain continuity.

Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component applications. The transition from the ecomate® RM series (SP20W1F) to the ecomate® Aquarius™ series (SP20W2F) represents a product line evolution while preserving functional compatibility.

The SP20W2F is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which may differ from the original packaging configuration of the SP20W1F. This packaging difference does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SP20W2F be used as a direct replacement for SP20W1F in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The SP20W2F maintains identical specifications across all functional parameters including contact size, wire gauge range, termination method, material, and finish. The components are electrically and mechanically equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the series change from ecomate® RM to ecomate® Aquarius™?

A: The series designation indicates product line evolution within the Amphenol Sine Systems Corp portfolio. The functional specifications remain unchanged, and the components are fully compatible for applications requiring Size 20 pin contacts with 20-22 AWG crimp termination.

Q: Does the Cut Tape (CT) packaging of SP20W2F affect its performance?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect component electrical or mechanical performance. Cut Tape packaging is a standard distribution method that may differ from the original SP20W1F packaging but does not impact functionality.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between SP20W1F and SP20W2F?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting identical regulatory requirements.

Q: Why is SP20W1F classified as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation of the ecomate® RM series variant. The SP20W2F from the ecomate® Aquarius™ series provides equivalent functionality for new designs and replacement applications.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with both SP20W1F and SP20W2F?

A: Both components accommodate 20-22 AWG wire gauges, equivalent to 0.34 ~ 0.5mm² cross-sectional area.
