DT04-4P-E003 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DT04-4P-E003 is a 4-position rectangular connector receptacle housing manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. This component serves as the housing for receptacle-type connectors in the DT series, designed for free-hanging in-line applications with crimp termination and latch holder fastening. The part is actively produced and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector housing category, allowing for interchangeability in applications where specific color, series variant, or insulation material differences do not impact functional requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the DT04-4P-E003 are determined by equivalence in the following critical parameters:

Connector Type: Receptacle
Contact Type: Male Pin
Number of Positions: 4
Number of Rows: 2
Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
Contact Termination: Crimp
Fastening Type: Latch Holder
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
Features: Cap (Cover), IP68, IP6K9K

Substitutes are grouped into two categories:

Parametric Equivalents (TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors): Parts DT04-4P-E005, DTM04-4P-E003, DTM04-4P-E005, and DTP04-4P-E003 maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations exist only in color (Gray vs. Black), series designation (DT, DTM, DTP), and insulation material composition (Plastic vs. Polyamide PA66 Glass Filled). These differences do not affect functional compatibility in applications where housing color and material grade are not specified constraints.

Similar Part (Cross-Manufacturer): AT04-4P-EC01 from Amphenol Sine Systems Corp maintains equivalent connector type, position count, mounting configuration, and operating temperature range. This part differs in insulation material (Thermoplastic vs. Plastic), moisture sensitivity level classification, and tariff code, representing a cross-manufacturer alternative where TE Connectivity parts are unavailable.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors): Parts DT04-4P-E005, DTM04-4P-E003, DTM04-4P-E005, and DTP04-4P-E003 are recommended as direct substitutes when the DT04-4P-E003 is unavailable. All maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection among these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

DT04-4P-E005: Select when black housing color is required. Insulation material is polyamide glass-filled, offering enhanced mechanical properties compared to standard plastic.
DTM04-4P-E003 and DTM04-4P-E005: DTM series variants provide equivalent functionality with plastic insulation (DTM04-4P-E003) or black polyamide housing (DTM04-4P-E005). DTM04-4P-E005 offers the highest inventory availability (5325 units).
DTP04-4P-E003: DTP series with polyamide PA66 glass-filled insulation for applications requiring enhanced material durability.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternative: AT04-4P-EC01 from Amphenol Sine Systems Corp is suitable when TE Connectivity parts are unavailable and cross-manufacturer compatibility is acceptable. This part maintains equivalent connector architecture and operating temperature range. Note that IP68 and IP6K9K ratings are not specified for this part; verify environmental protection requirements before selection. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed.

All substitute parts are actively produced and carry equivalent regulatory compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DT04-4P-E005 replace DT04-4P-E003 in all applications?

A: DT04-4P-E005 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for functional equivalence. The primary difference is housing color (Black vs. Gray) and insulation material composition (Polyamide glass-filled vs. Plastic). Substitution is valid when application requirements do not specify housing color or material grade constraints.

Q: What is the difference between DT, DTM, and DTP series housings?

A: All three series (DT, DTM, DTP) maintain identical connector type, position count, mounting configuration, and operating temperature specifications. Series designation reflects internal TE Connectivity product line organization. DTP series uses polyamide PA66 glass-filled insulation, while DT and DTM series use plastic insulation. Selection depends on material performance requirements for the specific application.

Q: Is AT04-4P-EC01 fully compatible with DT04-4P-E003?

A: AT04-4P-EC01 maintains equivalent connector type, position count, row configuration, mounting type, contact termination, and fastening method. Operating temperature range is identical (-55°C ~ 125°C). The part differs in manufacturer, insulation material (Thermoplastic), and does not specify IP68 or IP6K9K ratings. Substitution is valid for applications where cross-manufacturer compatibility is acceptable and environmental protection requirements do not mandate IP68/IP6K9K ratings.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All listed parts are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with any of these components.

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

A: IP68 indicates protection against dust ingress and temporary immersion in water. IP6K9K indicates protection against high-pressure water jets. These ratings are specified for DT04-4P-E003 and all TE Connectivity substitute parts (DT04-4P-E005, DTM04-4P-E003, DTM04-4P-E005, DTP04-4P-E003). The Amphenol AT04-4P-EC01 does not specify these ratings; verify environmental protection requirements before selecting this alternative.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. DT04-4P-E003 and all listed substitute parts (DT04-4P-E005, DTM04-4P-E003, DTM04-4P-E005, DTP04-4P-E003, AT04-4P-EC01) are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Which substitute part has the highest inventory availability?

A: DTM04-4P-E005 has the highest inventory with 5325 units in stock, followed by DTM04-4P-E003 with 2074 units.
