Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete SP28W1T is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the ecomate® Aquarius™ series. The substitute part SP28W2T maintains identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: Contact Type (Pin, Signal, Stamped), Contact Size (20), Wire Gauge range (28-30 AWG / 0.05 ~ 0.08 mm²), Contact Termination (Crimp), Contact Material (Copper Alloy), Contact Finish (Tin), and Features (Insulation Support). Both components share the same base product number (SP28), series designation, and regulatory compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected). The primary distinction is product status and packaging configuration, with SP28W2T classified as active and supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SP28W2T is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete SP28W1T. Both components are manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the ecomate® Aquarius™ series. The SP28W2T is classified as active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support and supply availability. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for current production environments. The SP28W2T is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, which is standard for high-volume manufacturing and automated assembly processes. Selection of SP28W2T for new designs and production applications eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining complete functional and dimensional compatibility with existing connector assemblies designed for the SP28W1T.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SP28W2T be used as a direct replacement for SP28W1T in existing designs?

A: Yes. The SP28W2T is functionally and mechanically equivalent to the SP28W1T. Both components share identical contact type, size, wire gauge rating, termination method, material composition, and finish specifications. The components are interchangeable in all electrical and mechanical applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting SP28W1T with SP28W2T?

A: The SP28W1T is classified as obsolete, meaning it is no longer in active production. The SP28W2T is the active equivalent component, ensuring continued supply chain availability and manufacturer support for new production and field service requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between SP28W1T and SP28W2T?

A: No. Both components maintain identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. There are no regulatory or compliance barriers to substitution.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these two parts?
