ELFT02150 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELFT02150 is a 2-position terminal block plug manufactured by Amphenol PCD, featuring female sockets with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch and 90° wire entry orientation. This component is designed for free-hanging in-line applications requiring screw-based rising cage clamp termination. The part is currently active in production with 788 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and safety certifications can be maintained across different manufacturers while accommodating application-specific requirements such as packaging format, operating temperature range, or wire gauge specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 284046-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, Buchanan series) qualifies as an equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts maintain identical current rating (15 A UL), voltage rating (300 V UL), and contact mating finish (tin). These parameters ensure equivalent electrical performance in the target application.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts share the same number of positions (2), pitch spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm), wire entry angle (90°), termination method (screw-rising cage clamp), and mounting configuration (free hanging in-line). These mechanical parameters confirm physical and functional interchangeability.

Safety & Compliance: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level). The substitute part carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected status, meeting or exceeding the RoHS compliance of the main part.

Allowable Variations: Wire gauge range differs (ELFT02150: 12 AWG, 14-26 AWG versus 284046-2: 12-30 AWG, 0.05-3mm²), operating temperature range extends (ELFT02150: 105°C maximum versus 284046-2: -40°C to 110°C), housing material differs (PPO versus PA66 nylon), and contact material differs (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze). These variations remain within acceptable substitution parameters for terminal block applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ELFT02150 and 284046-2 are active production parts meeting identical electrical and mechanical requirements for 2-position, 5mm pitch terminal block plug applications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Inventory & Packaging: ELFT02150 is supplied in tray packaging with 788 units available. 284046-2 is supplied in bulk packaging with 14,928 units available. Bulk availability may support higher-volume production requirements.

Compliance Status: ELFT02150 carries RoHS compliance certification. 284046-2 carries ROHS3 compliance and is REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements for European and international markets.

Operating Temperature Range: ELFT02150 is rated to 105°C maximum. 284046-2 operates across -40°C to 110°C, providing extended low-temperature capability and slightly higher maximum temperature rating.

Wire Gauge Accommodation: ELFT02150 accepts 12 AWG and 14-26 AWG wire. 284046-2 accepts 12-30 AWG wire and 0.05-3mm² wire, offering broader wire gauge compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 284046-2 directly replace ELFT02150 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (2), wire entry angle (90°), termination method (screw-rising cage clamp), and mounting configuration (free hanging in-line). Electrical ratings (15 A, 300 V) and safety certifications (UL94 V-0) are equivalent. Physical interchangeability is confirmed.

Q: What are the differences between these parts?

A: Housing material differs (ELFT02150 uses PPO; 284046-2 uses PA66 nylon). Contact material differs (ELFT02150 uses copper alloy; 284046-2 uses phosphor bronze). Operating temperature range extends on 284046-2 (-40°C to 110°C versus 105°C maximum). Wire gauge range is broader on 284046-2 (12-30 AWG versus 12 AWG, 14-26 AWG). Packaging differs (tray versus bulk).

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: ELFT02150 is RoHS compliant. 284046-2 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements, MSL 1 moisture sensitivity, and EAR99 export classification. 284046-2 meets or exceeds the compliance profile of ELFT02150.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-volume production?

A: 284046-2 offers significantly higher inventory (14,928 units in bulk packaging) compared to ELFT02150 (788 units in tray packaging), supporting sustained high-volume production schedules.

Q: Are screw torque specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts specify 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In) screw torque, ensuring consistent assembly procedures and connection reliability.

Q: What wire gauges does each part accept?

A: ELFT02150 accepts 12 AWG and 14-26 AWG wire. 284046-2 accepts 12-30 AWG wire and 0.05-3mm² wire. For applications requiring 27-30 AWG wire or metric wire specifications, 284046-2 provides broader compatibility.
