ELFH08280 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELFH08280 is an 8-position terminal block header manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for vertical through-hole mounting with 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing. This shrouded male pin header operates at 300V UL and 15A UL current rating, suitable for industrial control and power distribution applications. The component is actively produced and stocked at 1088 units. Substitute parts are identified to address inventory availability, lead time constraints, or specific application requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELFH08280 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

Number of positions: 8 (exact match required)
Pitch spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) or 0.197" (5.00mm) with mechanical compatibility
Header orientation: Vertical (exact match required)
Mounting type: Through hole (exact match required)
Termination style: Solder (exact match required)
Voltage rating: Minimum 300V UL
Current rating: Minimum 12A UL
Material flammability: UL94 V-0 (exact match required)
Shrouding configuration: 2-side or 4-side shrouding acceptable for mechanical interchangeability

The two identified substitutes (Phoenix Contact 1753550 and 1758076) meet these criteria with minor pitch tolerance variations and equivalent electrical performance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELFH08280 (Amphenol PCD) remains the primary specification when available. This part carries active product status, higher current rating (15A UL), and 4-side shrouding configuration.

1758076 (Phoenix Contact) is the preferred substitute when ELFH08280 is unavailable. This part matches the exact 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, maintains 300V UL voltage rating, and carries ROHS3 compliance with active product status. The 12A UL current rating is suitable for applications not requiring the full 15A capacity of the original part.

1753550 (Phoenix Contact) is an alternative substitute with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch spacing. This 0.003" (0.08mm) pitch tolerance variation requires mechanical verification for PCB footprint compatibility. This part is suitable only when pitch tolerance is acceptable for the application and when 12A current capacity is sufficient.

Both Phoenix Contact substitutes employ 2-side shrouding versus the 4-side shrouding of the original part, which may affect mechanical fit in constrained mounting environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1753550 be used as a direct replacement for ELFH08280?

A: 1753550 is mechanically and electrically compatible with pitch tolerance considerations. The 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch differs from the specified 0.200" (5.08mm) by 0.003" (0.08mm). PCB footprint compatibility must be verified before substitution. The 2-side shrouding configuration differs from the 4-side shrouding of ELFH08280.

Q: What is the current rating difference between ELFH08280 and the Phoenix Contact substitutes?

A: ELFH08280 is rated at 15A UL, while both Phoenix Contact parts (1753550 and 1758076) are rated at 12A UL. Applications requiring current capacity above 12A must use ELFH08280 or equivalent 15A-rated alternatives.

Q: Are the Phoenix Contact substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 1753550 and 1758076 carry ROHS3 compliance status. ELFH08280 carries RoHS Compliant status. All three parts meet RoHS requirements.

Q: What is the difference between 1753550 and 1758076?

A: The primary difference is pitch spacing. 1753550 uses 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, while 1758076 uses 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch matching ELFH08280. Both parts are identical in electrical ratings, shrouding configuration (2-side), and compliance certifications. 1758076 is preferred when exact pitch matching is required.

Q: Can these parts be used in high-temperature applications?

A: ELFH08280 specifies operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. Phoenix Contact substitutes do not provide operating temperature specifications in the available data. Temperature performance must be confirmed with manufacturer documentation before use in temperature-critical applications.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: ELFH08280 is supplied in Tray packaging with 1088 units in stock. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes (1753550 and 1758076) are supplied in Bulk packaging with 1452 and 2368 units in stock respectively. Packaging format may affect procurement and handling procedures.
