ELVT05500 Terminal Block Plug Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELVT05500 is a 5-position terminal block plug manufactured by Amphenol PCD, featuring female sockets with 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch spacing and 90° free-hanging in-line mounting. This component is classified as Active product status and is designed for screw-based wire termination applications requiring 12 A current capacity at 300 V. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and functional characteristics align with the original component's core parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELVT05500 are qualified based on the following core parameters that determine functional equivalence:

5-position configuration with 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch spacing
Female socket plug type with free-hanging in-line mounting
Screw-based termination method
300 V UL voltage rating
16-28 AWG wire gauge compatibility
Active product status with current regulatory compliance

The identified substitutes EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5, both manufactured by On Shore Technology Inc., meet these electrical and mechanical requirements. Both parts maintain the same position count, pitch spacing, socket configuration, and voltage specification. Termination method, wire gauge range, and mounting orientation are equivalent across all three parts.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5 are qualified substitutes for the ELVT05500 based on matching electrical specifications, mechanical configuration, and active product status. All three parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with current manufacturing and environmental standards.

The ELVT05500 operates at a maximum temperature of 125°C, while the On Shore Technology substitutes operate within -30°C to 105°C range. Applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C should retain the original ELVT05500 specification.

Contact material differs between the main part (Copper Alloy) and substitutes (Copper Tin Alloy). Both materials are suitable for the specified voltage and current parameters. Housing material composition varies slightly between PA46 Nylon 4/6 and standard PA Nylon, with no functional impact on electrical performance or mechanical fit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5 be used interchangeably with ELVT05500?

A: Yes, both On Shore Technology parts meet the core electrical and mechanical requirements. Position count, pitch spacing, voltage rating, current capacity, and wire gauge compatibility are equivalent. Physical mounting and termination method are identical.

Q: What is the difference between EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and functional characteristics. The difference lies in series designation (EDZ1700 versus EDZ1710) and base product numbering. Selection between these two substitutes depends on supply chain availability and inventory status.

Q: Are there temperature limitations when substituting?

A: The ELVT05500 supports continuous operation to 125°C. The EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5 are rated to 105°C maximum. Applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C must use the original ELVT05500 part.

Q: Does contact material affect electrical performance?

A: Both Copper Alloy (ELVT05500) and Copper Tin Alloy (EDZ1700/5, EDZ1710/5) provide equivalent electrical conductivity and contact reliability for the specified 12 A current and 300 V voltage parameters.

Q: What packaging differences exist?

A: ELVT05500 is supplied in Tray packaging. EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5 are supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. ELVT05500 is RoHS Compliant. EDZ1700/5 and EDZ1710/5 are ROHS3 Compliant. Both compliance levels meet current regulatory requirements.
