Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FHG.00.302.CLAZ must maintain compatibility across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Plug, Male Pins)
• Position count (2 positions)
• Shell size designation (302)
• Termination method (Solder Cup)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Pull)
• Shell and contact materials (Brass shell, gold-plated contacts)
• Shielding configuration (Shielded)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 250°C)
• Insert material (PEEK)

The FPG.00.302.CLAZ meets these substitution criteria. Both parts are manufactured by LEMO, share identical mechanical and electrical interfaces, and maintain the same shell size, termination type, and environmental specifications. The primary distinction is the current rating differential and product status transition from obsolete to active.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FPG.00.302.CLAZ is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete FHG.00.302.CLAZ. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical interfaces, shell dimensions, and environmental operating specifications. The FPG.00.302.CLAZ is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term supply availability.

The primary design consideration is the current rating differential: the FHG.00.302.CLAZ is rated for 5A, while the FPG.00.302.CLAZ is rated for 4.6A. Applications requiring the full 5A capacity must evaluate whether the reduced current rating of the substitute part meets circuit requirements. For applications operating below 4.6A, the FPG.00.302.CLAZ provides direct functional equivalence with improved supply chain continuity.

Both parts comply with ROHS3 and REACH regulations, supporting modern procurement and environmental standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FPG.00.302.CLAZ directly replace the FHG.00.302.CLAZ in existing designs?

A: Yes, for applications operating at or below 4.6A. The connectors share identical mechanical interfaces, shell sizes, termination methods, and environmental specifications. The current rating reduction must be evaluated against circuit requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the series designation change from 00B to 00?

A: The series designation reflects the product line evolution. Both series maintain compatibility at the shell size 302 level with identical mechanical and electrical interfaces for 2-position configurations.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The FHG.00.302.CLAZ is specified as ROHS3 compliant. The FPG.00.302.CLAZ compliance status is not specified in the provided data. Both parts carry the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What is the impact of the current rating reduction from 5A to 4.6A?

A: The reduced current rating affects maximum allowable circuit current. Applications must confirm that operating currents remain within the 4.6A limit of the substitute part. Thermal and power dissipation characteristics may differ accordingly.

Q: Why is the FHG.00.302.CLAZ classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. The FPG.00.302.CLAZ represents the active production equivalent, ensuring continued availability and support for new designs and maintenance applications.
