LAPP 79178500 Hood Connector Top Entry Dual M32 HB24 IP65 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LAPP 79178500 is an active heavy duty connector hood designed for top entry dual M32 applications with IP65 ingress protection rating. This connector belongs to the EPIC® HB series and features aluminum alloy housing with powder coating suitable for industrial environments operating between -40°C and 125°C. The part is maintained in active product status with 1154 units in current inventory. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to supply chain considerations, regional availability, or specific application requirements where substitute series compatibility is confirmed.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LAPP 79178500 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Hood configuration
• Entry Style: Top Entry, Dual configuration
• Thread Size: M32 specification
• Ingress Protection: IP65 rating (Dust Tight, Water Resistant)
• Physical Dimensions: 120.00mm x 43.00mm x 76.00mm
• Lock Mechanism: Locking Clip (2) on Base Bottom
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C minimum

The HARTING 19300240467 (Han® B series) meets all mandatory parameters for substitution. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces, environmental protection ratings, and thermal operating specifications. The primary difference exists in the connector size designation (HB24 versus 24B) and housing material specification (Aluminum Alloy versus Aluminum, Die Cast), which remain functionally equivalent for the specified application envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the LAPP 79178500 and HARTING 19300240467 are active products with current manufacturing status and full compliance with export control classifications (EAR99). Selection between these parts should be based on:

Inventory Availability: LAPP 79178500 maintains 1154 units in stock, while HARTING 19300240467 has 783 units available. Primary selection should prioritize the LAPP part for immediate procurement requirements.

Regulatory Compliance: The HARTING 19300240467 carries explicit RoHS3 compliance certification and REACH Unaffected status documentation. If regulatory compliance documentation is required for end-use applications, the HARTING substitute provides additional certification records.

Material Specification: The LAPP part specifies Aluminum Alloy housing, while the HARTING equivalent uses Aluminum Die Cast construction. Both materials meet the IP65 environmental protection requirement and -40°C to 125°C operating range. Material selection should align with specific corrosion resistance or mechanical stress requirements of the installation environment.

Mechanical Interface: Both connectors feature identical M32 thread sizing, dual top entry configuration, and locking clip mechanisms on the base bottom. Direct mechanical substitution is supported without adapter requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HARTING 19300240467 directly replace the LAPP 79178500 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces, thread sizing (M32), entry configuration (top entry dual), and environmental protection ratings (IP65). Physical dimensions are identical at 120.00mm x 43.00mm x 76.00mm. Direct substitution is supported without mechanical modification.

Q: What is the difference between HB24 and 24B size designations?

A: HB24 is the LAPP EPIC® HB series designation, while 24B is the HARTING Han® B series designation. These represent equivalent connector sizes within their respective manufacturer series. The designations reflect different product line naming conventions but specify functionally identical connector dimensions and contact configurations.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental limitations when substituting between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and carry the same IP65 ingress protection rating (Dust Tight, Water Resistant). Environmental performance specifications are equivalent.

Q: Does the housing material difference (Aluminum Alloy versus Die Cast Aluminum) affect compatibility?

A: Both materials meet the specified environmental protection and thermal requirements. The material difference does not affect mechanical compatibility or electrical performance. Material selection should be based on specific corrosion resistance or mechanical stress requirements of the installation environment.

Q: What certifications apply to the HARTING substitute part?

A: The HARTING 19300240467 carries RoHS3 compliance certification and REACH Unaffected status. Both parts share EAR99 export control classification and 8538.90.8180 HTSUS code.

Q: Are locking mechanisms identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both connectors feature Locking Clip (2) mechanisms positioned on the base bottom. Locking operation and retention force specifications are equivalent.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Either part is suitable for new designs. Selection should prioritize current inventory availability (LAPP 79178500: 1154 units) and specific regulatory documentation requirements. If RoHS3 compliance documentation is required, the HARTING 19300240467 provides explicit certification records.
