D15S91C4PL00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The D15S91C4PL00 is a 15-position D-Sub receptacle connector with female sockets, manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI) in the Delta D series. This through-hole mounted connector features press-fit termination, steel tin-plated shell, and gold-flashed contacts rated for 5A at 300V operation across -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing system support and new designs requiring compatible D-Sub receptacle solutions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the D15S91C4PL00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle, female sockets
• Position count: 15 positions in 2-row configuration
• Shell size and layout: Size 2 (DA, A)
• Mounting method: Through-hole
• Termination technology: Press-fit
• Electrical ratings: 5A current, 300V voltage minimum
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C minimum
• Contact material: Phosphor bronze
• Dielectric material: Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT)
• Flange configuration: Housing/shell with M3 mounting

The primary substitute D15S91C4PL00LF maintains all these parameters while offering improved product status (active vs. obsolete) and enhanced compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D15S91C4PL00LF is the direct functional equivalent of the D15S91C4PL00. Both connectors share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and operational parameters. The D15S91C4PL00LF is preferred for new designs and replacement applications due to its active product status and RoHS compliance certification. The original D15S91C4PL00 is obsolete and non-compliant with RoHS directives.

For applications requiring the D15S91C4PL00, the D15S91C4PL00LF provides full compatibility with no design modifications necessary. The shell finish difference (tin-nickel plating vs. tin plating) does not affect electrical performance or mechanical fit within the specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can D15S91C4PL00LF be used as a direct replacement for D15S91C4PL00?

A: Yes. Both connectors are mechanically and electrically identical. The D15S91C4PL00LF maintains all critical parameters: 15-position receptacle configuration, 5A/300V ratings, press-fit termination, through-hole mounting, and -55°C to 125°C operating range. The shell finish difference does not impact functional compatibility.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The D15S91C4PL00LF is the active production equivalent with RoHS compliance and tin-nickel shell plating, while the D15S91C4PL00 is obsolete with non-compliant status and tin shell plating. Both deliver identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Does packaging differ between these connectors?

A: The D15S91C4PL00LF is supplied in tray packaging. The original D15S91C4PL00 packaging specification is not documented. Packaging does not affect connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Are there any design considerations when substituting D15S91C4PL00 with D15S91C4PL00LF?

A: No design modifications are required. The connectors are pin-compatible and dimensionally identical. Existing PCB layouts, mating connectors, and cable assemblies require no changes.

Q: What certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The D15S91C4PL00LF meets RoHS compliance requirements and maintains UL94 V-0 flammability rating. REACH status is unaffected. Both parts carry EAR99 export classification and 8536.69.4040 HTSUS code.
