Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SS20M1G15 is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Contact Size: 16
• Wire Gauge Range: 20-22 AWG (0.34 ~ 0.5 mm²)
• Contact Type: Socket
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Gold at 15.0 µin (0.38 µm) thickness
• Series Compatibility: ecomate® Aquarius™
• Features: Insulation Support
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The substitute part SS20M2G15 maintains identical electrical characteristics and mechanical specifications, with the primary operational difference being packaging configuration (Tape & Reel format versus unspecified original packaging) and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SS20M2G15 serves as the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete SS20M1G15. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for new designs and procurement. The SS20M2G15 is currently in active production status, ensuring supply chain continuity and availability.

The transition from SS20M1G15 to SS20M2G15 involves no electrical or mechanical changes to connector performance. Selection between the two is determined by supply availability and product lifecycle status, with SS20M2G15 being the appropriate choice for ongoing system implementations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SS20M2G15 directly replace SS20M1G15 in existing assemblies? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including contact size, wire gauge accommodation, termination method, and finish specification. The functional compatibility is complete.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two part numbers? A: The SS20M2G15 differs from SS20M1G15 in product status (Active versus Obsolete) and packaging format (Tape & Reel specification versus unspecified original packaging). All performance characteristics remain equivalent.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences between the two parts? A: No. Both components carry identical ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected designations, maintaining equivalent regulatory status for applications requiring compliance documentation.

Q: Does packaging format affect connector performance? A: Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus bulk) affects handling, storage, and automated assembly processing but does not alter the electrical or mechanical function of the contact itself.

Q: Is the wire gauge range identical? A: Yes. Both SS20M1G15 and SS20M2G15 accommodate 20-22 AWG wire (0.34 ~ 0.5 mm²) with identical crimp termination specifications.
