D15P91C6GL00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The D15P91C6GL00 is a 15-position D-Sub plug connector with male pins, manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) in the Delta D series. This through-hole mounted connector features press-fit termination, a steel tin-plated shell, and gold-plated contacts rated for 5A at 300V. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitutes essential for ongoing system support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the D15P91C6GL00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type, style, and pin configuration (D-Sub plug, 15 positions, male pins)
• Shell size and layout (Size 2, DA/A configuration)
• Mounting method (through-hole)
• Termination technology (press-fit)
• Electrical ratings (5A current, 300V voltage)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Contact and shell materials (phosphor bronze contacts, steel shell)
• Dielectric properties (PBT, UL94 V-0)

The D15P91C6GL00LF qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical compliance with all these parameters. Differences in shell finish (tin-nickel plated versus tin-plated) and packaging format do not affect functional interchangeability in the connector interface.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D15P91C6GL00LF is the direct functional equivalent of the D15P91C6GL00. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

For new designs or systems requiring regulatory compliance: The D15P91C6GL00LF is the appropriate choice. It maintains active product status and carries RoHS compliance certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards. The tin-nickel plated shell provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to the tin-plated finish of the obsolete part.

For legacy system maintenance: The D15P91C6GL00LF provides pin-for-pin and form-factor compatibility with the original D15P91C6GL00, enabling direct replacement without circuit board redesign or connector interface modification.

Packaging consideration: The D15P91C6GL00LF is supplied in tray packaging, which may differ from the original bulk packaging format. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D15P91C6GL00LF be used as a direct replacement for the D15P91C6GL00?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical ratings (5A, 300V), mechanical dimensions (15-position, size 2 D-Sub), mounting method (through-hole), and termination technology (press-fit). The connector interfaces are fully compatible.

Q: What is the difference between the tin-plated and tin-nickel plated shell finishes?

A: Tin-nickel plating provides superior corrosion resistance and environmental durability compared to tin plating alone. This enhancement is particularly beneficial in applications exposed to moisture or corrosive atmospheres. Both finishes maintain equivalent electrical performance and contact integrity.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect interchangeability?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a regulatory and material composition attribute that does not affect the functional performance or physical compatibility of the connector. The D15P91C6GL00LF's RoHS compliance makes it the preferred choice for new designs and systems subject to environmental regulations.

Q: Are there packaging implications when switching from D15P91C6GL00 to D15P91C6GL00LF?

A: The D15P91C6GL00LF is supplied in tray packaging rather than bulk format. Confirm that your assembly and procurement workflows accommodate tray packaging. The connector itself is identical; only the packaging format differs.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both the D15P91C6GL00 and D15P91C6GL00LF operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal compatibility in all specified applications.
