Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HD34-24-18PE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Receptacle housing for male pins with 18 positions
• Shell Dimensions: Shell size 24-18 insert specification
• Mounting Specification: Panel mount with bulkhead front-side nut configuration
• Fastening Mechanism: Bayonet lock engagement
• Contact Architecture: Crimp-type contacts with identical position distribution (8, 12, 16 gauge sizes)
• Environmental Rating: Minimum IP67 ingress protection
• Temperature Compatibility: Operating range of -55°C to 125°C
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification

The AHDM04-24-18PR from Amphenol Sine Systems Corp meets all substitution criteria and is classified as an equivalent alternative.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HD34-24-18PE and AHDM04-24-18PR are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than functional differences. The AHDM04-24-18PR provides enhanced ingress protection at IP67/IP69K, exceeding the minimum IP67 specification of the primary part. Both connectors support identical contact configurations and operating temperature ranges. Component selection should be determined by inventory status, lead time requirements, and application-specific environmental exposure conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AHDM04-24-18PR directly replace the HD34-24-18PE in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical shell size (24-18), position count (18), contact configuration, mounting specification, and fastening mechanism. No design modification is required for substitution.

Q: Are the contact sizes identical between these two connectors?

A: Yes. Both connectors use the same contact size distribution: one size 8 contact, three size 12 contacts, and fourteen size 16 contacts.

Q: What is the difference in ingress protection ratings?

A: The HD34-24-18PE is rated IP67 (dust tight, waterproof). The AHDM04-24-18PR is rated IP67/IP69K, providing additional protection against high-pressure water jets. Both meet or exceed the IP67 minimum requirement.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the HD34-24-18PE and AHDM04-24-18PR are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both connectors?

A: Both connectors operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Q: Are contacts included with these housings?

A: No. Both the HD34-24-18PE and AHDM04-24-18PR are supplied as housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately.

Q: What is the fastening mechanism for panel mounting?

A: Both connectors use a bayonet lock fastening system with a bulkhead front-side nut configuration for secure panel mounting.
