TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 147047-4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 147047-4 is a 4-position rectangular connector receptacle housing with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. This component belongs to the AMPMODU MTE series and features a yellow insulation housing with crimp contact termination and latch lock fastening.

The 147047-4 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production and maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this connector housing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 147047-4 are determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle housing only
• Contact Type: Female socket configuration
• Number of Positions: 4-position configuration
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm) center-to-center spacing
• Number of Rows: Single row layout
• Mounting Type: Free hanging in-line orientation
• Contact Termination: Crimp-style termination
• Fastening Type: Latch lock mechanism
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

All substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in housing color, insulation material composition, operating temperature range, and manufacturer series do not affect functional interchangeability within the specified parameter set. All substitute parts are active products with current availability and RoHS3 compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For New Designs and Active Production:

The three active substitute parts—1379029-5 (TE Connectivity), 0050579704 (Molex), and IPD1-04-S (Samtec Inc.)—are all suitable replacements for the obsolete 147047-4. All three substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

TE Connectivity 1379029-5 maintains manufacturer continuity within the TE Connectivity product line and operates across -40°C to 85°C. This part is available in high inventory (3467 units).

Molex 0050579704 offers the widest operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) and the highest current inventory availability (33171 units), providing supply chain flexibility for high-volume applications.

Samtec Inc. IPD1-04-S provides an alternative from a third-party manufacturer with active product status and moderate inventory availability (1049 units).

All three substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters to the original 147047-4, including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting orientation, termination method, and fastening mechanism. Housing color and insulation material variations do not affect functional compatibility within the specified parameter constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 147047-4 be directly replaced with any of the listed substitute parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain identical values for the critical parameters that determine functional compatibility: 4-position receptacle configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, female socket contacts, crimp termination, latch lock fastening, and free-hanging in-line mounting. The substitute parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the 147047-4.

Q: Does the housing color difference affect compatibility?

A: No. Housing color (yellow on the original 147047-4 versus gray, black, or white on the substitutes) is a cosmetic attribute and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Color selection may be determined by application-specific identification or assembly requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the different insulation materials listed for each substitute?

A: The insulation materials (PBT glass-filled for 1379029-5, polyester glass-filled for 0050579704, and PA66 nylon for IPD1-04-S) are all suitable for the specified operating conditions and moisture sensitivity level. Material selection reflects manufacturer design choices and does not impact interchangeability within the defined parameter set.

Q: Why do some substitute parts have specified operating temperature ranges while others do not?

A: Operating temperature specifications are provided by manufacturers when available. The absence of a specified range does not indicate temperature limitations; it reflects incomplete data in the provided specifications. All parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All parts listed—the original 147047-4 and all substitute parts—are connector housings only. Contacts must be procured separately and are not included with the housing.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for maximum supply chain availability?

A: The Molex 0050579704 offers the highest current inventory (33171 units) and the widest operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), making it suitable for applications requiring extended temperature performance and high-volume procurement.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All three active substitute parts (1379029-5, 0050579704, and IPD1-04-S) carry ROHS3 compliance certification. The original 147047-4 is marked as "Not applicable" for RoHS status due to its obsolete classification.
