ELFH05220 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELFH05220 is a 5-position terminal block header manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for right-angle through-hole mounting with 5.08mm pitch spacing. This component is classified as an active product and serves as a connector interface for PCB-to-wire termination applications requiring solder attachment. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to inventory availability, lead time considerations, or specific manufacturing source preferences in supply chain management.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELFH05220 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Number of Positions: 5 (exact match required)
Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm) (exact match required)
Header Orientation: 90°, Right Angle (exact match required)
Type: Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (2 Side) (exact match required)
Termination Style: Solder (exact match required)
Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
Current Rating (UL): 15 A (minimum requirement)
Voltage Rating (UL): 300 V (minimum requirement)
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 105°C (minimum requirement)
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (minimum requirement)

The substitute part 0395320005 (Molex Eurostyle ESE 39532) meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters for direct substitution in applications where the ELFH05220 is specified.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELFH05220 and 0395320005 are active products with equivalent electrical performance and compliance certifications. The ELFH05220 features a PBT housing material, while the 0395320005 uses PA66 nylon housing. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and support the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Minor dimensional variations exist in contact tail length (0.155" versus 0.150") and insulation height (0.319" versus 0.327"). These variations fall within acceptable tolerances for standard through-hole PCB mounting applications and do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in typical circuit board designs.

Both parts maintain RoHS compliance (RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant respectively) and carry identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (8536.69.4040). Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, packaging preference (Tray versus Bulk), or supply chain sourcing requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0395320005 (Molex) be used as a direct replacement for the ELFH05220 (Amphenol PCD)?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (15 A at 300 V), matching pitch (5.08mm), orientation (90° right angle), and termination method (solder). Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability standards and operate across the same temperature range (-40°C to 105°C). Minor dimensional variations in contact tail length and insulation height do not affect PCB mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the housing material difference (PBT versus PA66)?

A: Both PBT and PA66 materials meet the UL94 V-0 flammability requirement and support the specified operating temperature range. The material difference does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in standard applications. Material selection may influence thermal characteristics or chemical resistance in specialized environments, but both materials are suitable for general industrial and commercial terminal block applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The ELFH05220 is supplied in Tray packaging, while the 0395320005 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect component functionality or electrical performance; it relates only to order quantity and handling logistics.

Q: Do the dimensional variations affect PCB design or layout?

A: The contact tail length difference (0.155" versus 0.150") and insulation height difference (0.319" versus 0.327") are minor and fall within standard manufacturing tolerances. These variations do not require PCB layout modifications for typical through-hole mounting applications. Both parts are compatible with standard 5.08mm pitch terminal block footprints.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ELFH05220 is RoHS Compliant, and the 0395320005 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current RoHS requirements and are suitable for applications requiring RoHS certification.
