Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELFH14160 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

• Number of Positions: 14 (exact match required)
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm) (exact match required)
• Header Orientation: Vertical (exact match required)
• Termination Style: Solder (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: Minimum 300V UL (equal or greater acceptable)
• Current Rating: Minimum 12A (equal or greater acceptable)
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (exact match required)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria:

1753673 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBV series) - 2-side shrouded configuration, matching the original design 1755626 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBVA series) - 4-side shrouded configuration, providing enhanced mechanical protection

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1753673 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBV) is the direct functional equivalent for applications requiring identical shrouding configuration (2-side). This part maintains the same electrical specifications under UL standards (300V, 12A) and meets UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. The contact tail length and insulation height are within 0.001" tolerance of the original part. ROHS3 compliance provides enhanced regulatory coverage compared to standard RoHS compliance.

1755626 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBVA) provides equivalent electrical performance with enhanced mechanical protection through 4-side shrouding. This configuration is suitable for applications where additional mechanical robustness or EMI shielding is beneficial. The part meets identical voltage and current specifications under UL standards and maintains UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Physical dimensions remain compatible with standard PCB layouts.

Both substitute parts are active products with established supply chains. Selection between 1753673 and 1755626 depends on mechanical design requirements and shrouding preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1753673 be used as a direct replacement for ELFH14160? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (300V UL, 12A UL minimum), 14-position configuration, 5.00mm pitch, vertical orientation, and solder termination. The 2-side shrouding configuration is identical. Physical dimensions are within tolerance for standard PCB applications.

Q: What is the difference between 1753673 and 1755626? A: The primary difference is shrouding configuration. Part 1753673 features 2-side shrouding, matching the ELFH14160 design. Part 1755626 features 4-side shrouding, providing additional mechanical protection and potential EMI shielding benefits. Both maintain identical electrical ratings and pitch specifications.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original part and substitutes? A: The ELFH14160 is RoHS Compliant. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes are ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an enhanced compliance standard. All three parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and have MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Do the physical dimensions differ between these parts? A: Contact tail length and insulation height show minor variations within 0.001" tolerance. The ELFH14160 has a contact tail length of 0.155" (3.94mm) and insulation height of 0.475" (12.07mm), while both Phoenix Contact parts measure 0.154" (3.90mm) and 0.472" (12.00mm) respectively. These differences are within standard PCB design tolerances.

Q: What is the current rating difference between ELFH14160 and the substitutes? A: The ELFH14160 is rated for 15A at 300V UL. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes are rated for 12A at 300V UL. For applications requiring the full 15A capacity, the ELFH14160 should be retained. For applications operating at 12A or below, the substitutes are fully qualified.

Q: Are IEC ratings available for the ELFH14160? A: IEC ratings are not specified for the ELFH14160. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes provide IEC ratings: 12A at 400V IEC. For applications requiring IEC compliance documentation, the Phoenix Contact parts provide this specification.
