HR25-9TP-16SC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HR25-9TP-16SC is a 16-position circular connector plug housing manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd. This free-hanging (in-line) connector features a shielded design with backshell, cable clamp, coupling nut, and strain relief. The part is classified as obsolete, making substitute parts necessary for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. The active equivalent variant provides continuity for applications requiring this connector specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The HR25-9TP-16SC has one direct substitute: HR25-9TP-16SC(72). Substitution is valid based on the following critical parameters that remain identical between the main part and substitute:

• Series: HR25
• Number of Positions: 16
• Shell Size - Insert: 9
• Connector Type: Plug Housing (for female sockets)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Threaded
• Shell Material: Zinc Alloy
• Shell Finish: Nickel
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 85°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Shielding: Shielded
• Features: Backshell, Cable Clamp, Coupling Nut, Strain Relief

The substitute differs only in packaging format (bulk) and product status (active vs. obsolete), with improved RoHS compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For new designs and ongoing procurement, HR25-9TP-16SC(72) is the recommended selection. This variant maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original HR25-9TP-16SC while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd and share identical connector specifications, operating parameters, and physical characteristics.

The original HR25-9TP-16SC remains available for legacy system support and repair applications where existing inventory is sufficient. The transition to HR25-9TP-16SC(72) eliminates obsolescence risk and aligns with current regulatory compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are HR25-9TP-16SC and HR25-9TP-16SC(72) mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical shell size (9), number of positions (16), mounting type (free hanging in-line), fastening mechanism (threaded), and physical dimensions. They are direct mechanical equivalents.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active), RoHS compliance (non-compliant vs. compliant), and packaging format (standard vs. bulk). All electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Can HR25-9TP-16SC(72) be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains full compatibility with applications designed for HR25-9TP-16SC. No design modifications are required.

Q: What does the "(72)" designation indicate?

A: The "(72)" suffix indicates the bulk packaging variant of the HR25-9TP-16SC connector. This designation does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: HR25-9TP-16SC(72) is RoHS compliant, while the original HR25-9TP-16SC is RoHS non-compliant. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and identical operating temperature specifications.

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

A: Both HR25-9TP-16SC and HR25-9TP-16SC(72) operate within -25°C to 85°C.
