Is there a pin-compatible replacement for MICRO QTZB5.0?

While several candidates match the form factor (5-pin, SMT, Right Angle), true pin-compatibility requires comparing the datasheet's mechanical drawing and recommended PCB layout. No candidate can be confirmed as a drop-in replacement without this check.

What risks should I check before replacing MICRO QTZB5.0?

The main risk is mechanical incompatibility. Even with the same mounting type, the exact dimensions of the connector shell, mounting tabs, and signal pins can vary. Always compare the candidate's datasheet footprint against your PCB layout.
