Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELFH14180 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)
• Shrouding Configuration: 4-side shrouding (primary criterion for full equivalence)
• Voltage Rating: 300V UL minimum (acceptable at or above specification)
• Current Rating: 12A minimum (acceptable at or above specification)
• Material Flammability: UL94 V-0 (compliance requirement)
• RoHS Compliance: Required for regulatory equivalence

Two substitute parts meet these criteria with variations noted in shrouding configuration and manufacturer specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1755626 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBVA Series)

This part provides full functional equivalence to the ELFH14180. Both components feature 4-side shrouding, identical pitch and position configuration, and vertical through-hole mounting. The 1755626 meets all electrical requirements with UL and IEC certifications. ROHS3 compliance exceeds the RoHS Compliant status of the original part. This substitute is suitable for direct replacement in applications where Phoenix Contact sourcing is preferred or required.

1753673 (Phoenix Contact COMBICON MSTBV Series)

This part matches the ELFH14180 in all critical functional parameters except shrouding configuration. The 1753673 features 2-side shrouding compared to the 4-side shrouding of the original part. This difference affects mechanical protection and EMI shielding characteristics. The 1753673 is electrically equivalent with identical pitch, position count, voltage, and current ratings. This substitute is applicable in applications where 2-side shrouding meets design requirements or where space constraints necessitate reduced shrouding.

Both substitute parts maintain active product status, UL94 V-0 flammability compliance, and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection between substitutes depends on shrouding requirements and sourcing preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1755626 be used as a direct replacement for the ELFH14180?

A: Yes. The 1755626 matches all critical parameters including 14 positions, 5.00mm pitch, vertical orientation, 4-side shrouding, solder termination, and through-hole mounting. Electrical ratings meet or exceed the original specification. Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the 1755626 and 1753673 substitutes?

A: The primary difference is shrouding configuration. The 1755626 features 4-side shrouding identical to the ELFH14180, while the 1753673 features 2-side shrouding. Both maintain identical pitch, position count, and electrical ratings. The 2-side shrouding of the 1753673 provides reduced mechanical protection and EMI shielding compared to 4-side designs.

Q: Are the Phoenix Contact substitutes compatible with the same connector receptacles as the ELFH14180?

A: Compatibility depends on the specific receptacle design. Both Phoenix Contact parts maintain the 5.00mm pitch and 14-position configuration of the ELFH14180. Verify shrouding compatibility with mating receptacles, particularly regarding the 2-side versus 4-side shrouding difference between the 1753673 and other parts.

Q: What are the current rating differences between the ELFH14180 and its substitutes?

A: The ELFH14180 is rated for 15A at UL specifications. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes are rated for 12A at UL specifications. The 1755626 and 1753673 also carry IEC ratings of 12A at 400V, exceeding the 300V UL specification. Applications requiring the full 15A capacity should verify that the 12A rating of substitute parts is acceptable.

Q: Do all three parts meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. The ELFH14180 is RoHS Compliant. Both substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant certification, which represents an enhanced compliance standard. All three parts are suitable for applications with RoHS requirements.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The ELFH14180 is supplied in Tray packaging. Both Phoenix Contact substitutes are supplied in Bulk packaging. Verify that bulk packaging meets procurement and handling requirements for your application.
