DT04-4P-CL03 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DT04-4P-CL03 is a 4-position rectangular connector receptacle housing manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. This panel-mount receptacle is designed for applications requiring sealed, multi-position electrical connections with crimp termination. The part is currently active in production with 1133 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for design flexibility, supply chain continuity, or inventory management.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the DT04-4P-CL03 are classified into two categories based on parametric alignment:

Parametric Equivalent: DT04-4P-L012 shares identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the main part, including connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, termination type, fastening mechanism, color, operating temperature range, insulation material, and feature set. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors within the same DT series and carry equivalent compliance certifications.

Similar Manufacturer Part: AT04-4P-CL03 is manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp and maintains compatibility across core parameters: 4-position receptacle configuration, 2-row layout, panel mount installation, crimp termination, latch holder fastening, gray color, and identical operating temperature range. This part belongs to the PanelMate™ AT series and features a sealed design with thermoplastic insulation material. While the base product number differs (AT04-4P versus DT04), the functional and mechanical compatibility is established through matching position count, mounting type, contact termination, and environmental performance specifications.

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following parameters: connector type (receptacle), number of positions (4), number of rows (2), mounting type (panel mount), contact termination (crimp), fastening type (latch holder), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DT04-4P-L012 Selection: This part is recommended as the primary substitute when supply constraints affect DT04-4P-CL03 availability. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors, carry identical ROHS3 compliance certification, and maintain full parametric equivalence across all electrical and mechanical specifications. The DT04-4P-L012 currently maintains higher inventory levels (1306 units versus 1133 units), supporting supply chain continuity. No design modifications are required for direct substitution.

AT04-4P-CL03 Selection: This Amphenol Sine Systems Corp part is suitable for applications where cross-manufacturer qualification is permitted. The AT04-4P-CL03 maintains functional compatibility through matching position count, row configuration, panel mount installation, crimp termination, and operating temperature specifications. Both the main part and this substitute carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. The AT04-4P-CL03 features thermoplastic insulation material and sealed design characteristics. Inventory availability is highest for this part (1560 units). Design validation is required to confirm mechanical fit and connector interface compatibility before implementation.

All substitute parts maintain active production status and equivalent regulatory compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DT04-4P-L012 be used as a direct replacement for DT04-4P-CL03?

A: Yes. The DT04-4P-L012 is a parametric equivalent with identical specifications across connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting method, termination type, fastening mechanism, color, operating temperature range, and feature set. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors and carry equivalent compliance certifications. No design modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between DT04-4P-CL03 and AT04-4P-CL03?

A: Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical core parameters: 4-position receptacle, 2-row layout, panel mount installation, crimp termination, latch holder fastening, gray color, and -55°C ~ 125°C operating temperature. The AT04-4P-CL03 is manufactured by Amphenol Sine Systems Corp (versus TE Connectivity for the main part), features thermoplastic insulation material (versus plastic), and belongs to the PanelMate™ AT series (versus DT series). Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts (DT04-4P-CL03, DT04-4P-L012, and AT04-4P-CL03) are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with the housing purchase.

Q: What is the significance of the IP68 and IP6K9K ratings?

A: These ratings indicate environmental sealing performance. IP68 specifies protection against dust ingress and temporary immersion in water. IP6K9K specifies protection against high-pressure water jets. These features are present in both the main part and the parametric equivalent DT04-4P-L012.

Q: Can AT04-4P-CL03 be used in applications originally designed for DT04-4P-CL03?

A: The AT04-4P-CL03 maintains functional compatibility through matching core parameters. However, mechanical fit validation is required before implementation, as the part is manufactured by a different supplier and belongs to a different connector series. Design confirmation should address connector interface geometry and mounting flange specifications.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all three parts?

A: All three parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH Unaffected status. The ECCN classification is EAR99 for the TE Connectivity parts. The AT04-4P-CL03 carries the same regulatory designations.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on supply chain strategy and manufacturer preference. DT04-4P-CL03 and DT04-4P-L012 are equivalent TE Connectivity options. AT04-4P-CL03 is suitable if Amphenol cross-qualification is established. All three parts are active in production and maintain adequate inventory levels.
