UTXCMA2AM

Part Overview

The UTXCMA2AM is a male coupler connector minus 14 AWG manufactured by Amphenol Industrial Operations, designed for photovoltaic (solar panel) applications. This connector features the UTX™ series construction with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. The product is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components necessary for continued system support and maintenance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute compatibility for the UTXCMA2AM is determined by strict adherence to the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Male Coupler (identical functional role)
• Polarity Configuration: Minus keying (ensures correct mating orientation)
• Wire Gauge Specification: 14 AWG (matching current-carrying capacity)
• Application Category: Photovoltaic (Solar Panel) Connectors (same environmental and operational standards)
• Compliance Standards: RoHS Compliant, REACH Unaffected (regulatory compatibility)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (equivalent environmental protection)

The H4CMC2DM substitute part meets all these parameters, providing functional equivalence for applications previously utilizing the UTXCMA2AM connector.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The H4CMC2DM is the qualified substitute for the obsolete UTXCMA2AM connector. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: male coupler configuration, 14 AWG wire gauge, minus keying, and photovoltaic connector category. Both meet RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compatibility with systems designed for the original UTXCMA2AM.

The H4CMC2DM carries active product status with equivalent inventory availability, making it the appropriate choice for new installations and system replacements where the UTXCMA2AM is no longer obtainable. The transition from the UTX™ series (obsolete) to the Helios H4 series (active) represents Amphenol Industrial Operations' current product line for this connector category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the H4CMC2DM directly replace the UTXCMA2AM in existing installations?

A: Yes. The H4CMC2DM meets all critical electrical and mechanical specifications of the UTXCMA2AM, including connector type, wire gauge, keying configuration, and compliance certifications. The connectors are functionally equivalent for photovoltaic applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The UTXCMA2AM is classified as obsolete. The H4CMC2DM is the active substitute from the same manufacturer, providing continued access to equivalent connector functionality.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these connectors?

A: The UTXCMA2AM packaging is unspecified in the original documentation. The H4CMC2DM is supplied in bag packaging. This represents a packaging format difference with no impact on functional specifications.

Q: Do both connectors meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the UTXCMA2AM and H4CMC2DM are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting identical regulatory requirements for photovoltaic connector applications.

Q: Is the moisture sensitivity level equivalent between both parts?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating identical environmental protection and handling requirements.
