Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Highest Compatibility):

The HARTING 09682535613 and 09682537613 connectors are direct functional equivalents to the L17HTNAS4F4C. Both maintain identical mechanical interfaces, mating-side female screwlock fastening, and core electrical specifications. The HARTING parts feature ROHS3 compliance and support higher current ratings (6.5A versus 5A), providing enhanced performance margin. Operating temperature range extends to 125°C, which is acceptable for most signal applications within the -55°C to 125°C envelope. These parts are suitable for direct substitution in new designs or field replacement scenarios.

Secondary Substitutes (Acceptable with Design Verification):

The NorComp Inc. 182-015-213R531 connector provides equivalent performance with 9826 units in stock, offering superior supply availability. This part features panel mount capability in addition to through-hole mounting, providing design flexibility. Operating temperature is limited to 105°C; applications requiring operation above 105°C should reference the primary substitutes. The NorComp part maintains identical backset spacing and shell geometry.

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) D15S33E4GV00LF Delta D series connector is compatible with the L17HTNAS4F4C across all mandatory parameters. This part features phosphor bronze contacts and supports 5A per contact with 300V rating. Operating temperature extends to 125°C. The Delta D series is suitable for applications requiring enhanced mechanical durability and contact reliability.

Conditional Substitutes (Application-Dependent):

The Assmann WSW A-DF 15 A/KG-T2S and A-DF 15 A/KG-T4S connectors are mechanically compatible but feature reduced current ratings (3A versus 5A) and voltage ratings (250V versus 600V). These parts are suitable only for low-power signal applications operating below 250V. Backset spacing tolerance is 0.319" (8.10mm), which is within acceptable mechanical variation for standard PCB layouts.

Compliance Considerations:

All listed substitutes maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. ROHS3-compliant parts (HARTING, NorComp, Assmann) are preferred for new designs targeting current regulatory requirements. The original L17HTNAS4F4C and Amphenol FCI D15S33E4GV00LF maintain RoHS Compliant status, which is acceptable for existing product lines.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute a HARTING 09682535612 for the Amphenol ICC L17HTNAS4F4C?

A: The HARTING 09682535612 is mechanically and electrically compatible with the L17HTNAS4F4C. Both connectors share identical shell geometry, 15-position layout, right-angle solder termination, and backset spacing. The HARTING part features a housing/shell flange design (4-40) instead of mating-side screwlock, which affects mechanical mounting but not electrical function. Current rating is higher (6.5A versus 5A), and operating temperature extends to 125°C. This substitution is acceptable for applications not requiring mating-side screwlock fastening.

Q: What is the difference between mating-side female screwlock and housing/shell flange features?

A: Mating-side female screwlock fastening (4-40) secures the mating connector directly to the receptacle shell using threaded fasteners on the mating connector. Housing/shell flange fastening (4-40) uses threaded holes in the receptacle flange for panel or bracket mounting. Both designs maintain identical electrical connectivity and backset spacing. Selection depends on mechanical assembly requirements and available mounting infrastructure on the mating connector.

Q: Are NorComp 182-015-213R161 and 182-015-213R531 interchangeable?

A: Both NorComp parts are mechanically compatible and share identical shell geometry, position count, and backset spacing. The 182-015-213R161 features unthreaded housing/shell flange and includes a ground strap. The 182-015-213R531 features 4-40 threaded housing/shell flange and board lock feature. Both support 5A current rating and operate from -55°C to 105°C. Selection depends on specific mounting requirements and whether ground strap functionality is required.

Q: Can I use Assmann WSW A-DF 15 A/KG-T2S in a 600V application?

A: No. The Assmann WSW A-DF 15 A/KG-T2S is rated for 250V maximum. The original L17HTNAS4F4C supports 600V. For applications requiring 600V operation, use the HARTING 09682535613, HARTING 09682537613, NorComp 182-015-213R531, or Amphenol FCI D15S33E4GV00LF, which support higher voltage ratings or do not specify voltage limitations.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness (30.0µin versus Flash)?

A: Contact finish thickness affects contact durability and mating cycle life. The L17HTNAS4F4C specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating, providing enhanced wear resistance for high-cycle mating applications. Substitute parts with flash gold plating (HARTING, NorComp, Assmann, Amphenol FCI) provide thinner gold coating suitable for lower-cycle applications. For applications exceeding 100 mating cycles, verify contact finish thickness requirements with the equipment manufacturer.

Q: Are ROHS3-compliant parts compatible with RoHS Compliant equipment?

A: Yes. ROHS3 compliance is a superset of RoHS compliance, incorporating additional restrictions on certain substances. ROHS3-compliant parts (HARTING, NorComp, Assmann) are fully compatible with equipment designed for RoHS Compliant components. Substituting ROHS3-compliant parts in RoHS Compliant designs does not introduce compatibility issues.

Q: What is the impact of operating temperature range differences?

A: The L17HTNAS4F4C operates from -55°C to 150°C. Substitute parts with reduced upper temperature limits (105°C to 125°C) are suitable for applications operating within their specified ranges. For equipment requiring sustained operation above 125°C, use the original L17HTNAS4F4C or verify that substitute parts meet the specific thermal requirements. Temperature derating may apply to electrical performance at upper operating limits.

Q: Does backset spacing tolerance (0.318" versus 0.319") affect PCB layout?

A: Backset spacing tolerance of 0.001" (0.025mm) is within standard PCB manufacturing tolerances and does not require layout modification. Both the L17HTNAS4F4C (0.318") and Assmann WSW parts (0.319") are compatible with standard D-Sub connector footprints. PCB design files do not require revision for this tolerance variation.

Q: Can I mix manufacturers in a multi-connector assembly?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain identical shell geometry, position count, and mating interface specifications. Mixing manufacturers (Amphenol ICC, HARTING, NorComp, Assmann) in a single assembly is mechanically and electrically compatible. However, for consistency in procurement, testing, and field replacement, using a single manufacturer source per design is recommended.
