ELFH09180 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELFH09180 is a 9-position terminal block header manufactured by Amphenol PCD, designed for vertical through-hole mounting with 5.00mm pitch spacing. This component is classified as an active product and serves as a connector interface for electrical termination in industrial and commercial applications. The part features male pins with 4-side shrouding, solder termination, and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part's specifications, enabling component interchangeability in circuit designs where pin configuration, pitch, voltage rating, and mounting type remain consistent.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELFH09180 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Number of Positions: 9 positions maintained across all substitutes
• Pitch Spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) standard maintained
• Header Orientation: Vertical mounting configuration
• Termination Style: Solder termination required
• Mounting Type: Through-hole PCB mounting
• Voltage Rating: Minimum 300 V UL rating or equivalent IEC rating
• Current Rating: Minimum 12 A capacity
• Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 compliance
• RoHS Compliance: RoHS or ROHS3 compliant status

The substitute part 1753576 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBV series) meets these core electrical and mechanical criteria. Variations in shrouding configuration (2-side versus 4-side), housing color, and contact finish do not affect functional substitution when electrical parameters and pin layout remain equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELFH09180 and 1753576 are active products with current manufacturing status and full compliance certifications. The ELFH09180 maintains RoHS compliance and carries a UL rating of 15 A at 300 V. The 1753576 substitute carries ROHS3 compliance with a UL rating of 12 A at 300 V and an IEC rating of 12 A at 400 V, providing additional international standards coverage.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Current Requirement: If the application requires current capacity exceeding 12 A, the ELFH09180 with its 15 A UL rating is the appropriate choice.
• Regulatory Framework: Applications requiring ROHS3 compliance may prefer the 1753576.
• Shrouding Configuration: The ELFH09180 provides 4-side shrouding for enhanced EMI protection, while the 1753576 offers 2-side shrouding.
• Inventory Availability: ELFH09180 has 805 units in stock; 1753576 has 1550 units available.

Both parts share identical pitch spacing, position count, vertical orientation, solder termination, through-hole mounting, and flammability ratings, confirming functional equivalence for standard applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1753576 directly replace the ELFH09180 in all applications?

A: The 1753576 is functionally equivalent for applications requiring 12 A or less at 300 V UL or 400 V IEC. If the circuit design requires the full 15 A UL capacity of the ELFH09180, the substitute is not appropriate. Both parts maintain identical 9-position, 5.00mm pitch vertical through-hole configuration.

Q: What is the significance of the shrouding difference (4-side versus 2-side)?

A: The ELFH09180 features 4-side shrouding, which provides enhanced electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and mechanical protection. The 1753576 features 2-side shrouding. This difference affects physical form factor and EMI performance but does not impact electrical substitution if PCB layout accommodates the reduced shrouding profile.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ELFH09180 is RoHS Compliant. The 1753576 is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an updated version of the RoHS directive. Both meet hazardous substance restrictions for lead-free manufacturing.

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

A: The ELFH09180 is rated for 15 A at 300 V (UL). The 1753576 is rated for 12 A at 300 V (UL) and 12 A at 400 V (IEC). Applications requiring current capacity above 12 A must use the ELFH09180.

Q: Do both parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: The ELFH09180 specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The 1753576 does not provide an operating temperature specification in the available data. Confirm temperature requirements with the manufacturer if operating outside standard industrial ranges.

Q: Are these parts suitable for solder termination?

A: Yes. Both the ELFH09180 and 1753576 use solder termination and are designed for through-hole PCB mounting, making them compatible with standard wave soldering and reflow processes.

Q: What is the contact material for the 1753576?

A: The contact material specification for the 1753576 is not provided in the available data. Both parts feature tin contact mating finish. Confirm contact material specifications with Phoenix Contact if material compatibility is critical for your application.
