ELFH07290 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELFH07290 is a 7-position terminal block header manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for vertical through-hole mounting with 5.08mm pitch spacing. This component is classified as a shrouded male pin header suitable for solder termination in industrial and commercial applications. The part maintains active product status with 758 units in current inventory. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to supply chain considerations, regional availability, or specific application requirements where substitute specifications align with the original design parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELFH07290 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Number of positions: 7 positions required
• Header type: Male pins with 2-side shrouding
• Termination method: Solder termination
• Mounting configuration: Vertical through-hole
• Pitch spacing: 5.00mm to 5.08mm (within tolerance for mechanical fit)
• Voltage rating: Minimum 300V UL
• Current rating: Minimum 12A (IEC or UL)
• Flammability: UL94 V-0 minimum
• RoHS compliance: Required

The Phoenix Contact 1753534 qualifies as an equivalent substitute based on matching all primary compatibility criteria. Minor variations in pitch (5.00mm vs 5.08mm) remain within acceptable mechanical tolerance for standard PCB footprints designed for 5.08mm terminal blocks. Both parts maintain identical position count, shrouding configuration, termination style, and mounting orientation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELFH07290 (Amphenol PCD) remains the primary specification when:

• Application current requirement exceeds 12A and approaches 15A maximum
• Original design validation and qualification documentation references this specific part number
• Supply chain continuity with existing Amphenol PCD inventory is prioritized

1753534 (Phoenix Contact) is acceptable as an equivalent substitute when:

• Application current requirement does not exceed 12A
• PCB footprint design accommodates 5.00mm pitch spacing or allows minor mechanical adjustment
• ROHS3 compliance status meets regulatory requirements
• Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBV series qualification is acceptable within design standards

Both parts maintain active product status, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, 300V UL voltage rating, and RoHS compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on current rating requirements and supply availability rather than functional performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1753534 be used in place of ELFH07290 without PCB modification?

A: The 1753534 operates at 5.00mm pitch versus the ELFH07290 at 5.08mm pitch. Standard PCB footprints designed for 5.08mm spacing will accommodate the 1753534 with minimal mechanical tolerance. Verify footprint dimensions against both datasheets before assembly. No electrical modification is required.

Q: What is the current rating difference between these parts?

A: The ELFH07290 is rated for 15A (UL), while the 1753534 is rated for 12A (UL). Applications requiring current levels between 12A and 15A must use the ELFH07290. Applications operating at 12A or below may use either part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ELFH07290 is RoHS Compliant. The 1753534 is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents the current RoHS standard. Both meet RoHS requirements.

Q: What is the voltage rating for both parts?

A: Both the ELFH07290 and 1753534 are rated for 300V (UL), making them electrically equivalent for voltage specifications.

Q: Do these parts have identical shrouding?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 2-side shrouded male pin headers with identical functional shrouding configuration for the 7-position terminal block.

Q: What is the operating temperature range?

A: The ELFH07290 operates from -40°C to 105°C. Operating temperature range for the 1753534 was not provided in the specification data.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The ELFH07290 is supplied in Tray packaging with 758 units in current inventory. The 1753534 is supplied in Bulk packaging with 2750 units in current inventory. Packaging format should be verified against procurement requirements.
