Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

Connector type: Plug with male pins
Position count: 4 positions
Termination method: Solder cup
Fastening mechanism: Push-pull
Mounting configuration: Free hanging (in-line), right angle
Contact finish: Gold plating on mating surfaces
Ingress protection: IP50 minimum
Operating temperature range: Must encompass or match the original specification

Substitute Categories:

Direct LEMO Equivalent (FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z): Active production part from the same manufacturer with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Differs only in product status (active vs. obsolete) and packaging format.
Cross-Manufacturer Alternative (W2CL0C-P04MCC0-2500): ODU MINI-SNAP® L series connector meeting core functional requirements. Maintains 4-position configuration, solder cup termination, push-pull fastening, and gold contact finish. Operates within compatible temperature and current parameters with equivalent ingress protection.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z (LEMO): This is the primary recommended substitute. It maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the obsolete FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z while offering active product status and established supply chain availability. Both parts comply with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. Selection of this part eliminates any design or performance risk and is appropriate for all applications currently using the original component.

W2CL0C-P04MCC0-2500 (ODU MINI-SNAP® L): This cross-manufacturer alternative is suitable for applications where the operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 120°C is sufficient and where unshielded configuration is acceptable. The higher current rating (4A vs. 2A) provides additional margin in power delivery applications. This part is appropriate for new designs or applications where electromagnetic shielding is not a requirement. Compliance certifications for this part are not specified in available documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the W2CL0C-P04MCC0-2500 be used as a direct replacement for the FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z?

A: The W2CL0C-P04MCC0-2500 is functionally compatible for applications operating within -40°C ~ 120°C and where unshielded operation is acceptable. The original part is shielded; the ODU alternative is unshielded. If electromagnetic shielding is required by system design, the FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z is the appropriate choice.

Q: What is the difference between FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z and FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z?

A: Both parts are from LEMO's 00B series with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is product status: FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z is obsolete, while FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z is active production. The FPG variant is the current equivalent for procurement and new designs.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z is listed with unspecified packaging. FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z is supplied in bulk packaging. W2CL0C-P04MCC0-2500 is also supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification.

Q: What are the key parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Critical parameters for substitution are: 4-position configuration, solder cup termination, push-pull fastening, male pin connector type, free hanging right-angle mounting, gold contact finish, and IP50 ingress protection. Operating temperature range and shielding requirements must be evaluated based on specific application needs.

Q: Is the FPG.00.304.CLAD35Z pin-compatible with the original FHG.00.304.CLAD35Z?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical shell size (304), position count (4), and termination method (solder cup). Pin configuration and mating interface are equivalent.
