L717DA15PV D-Sub 15 Position Plug Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The L717DA15PV is a 15 position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This connector features male pins, vertical solder termination, and through-hole mounting. The part is currently active in production with 632 units in stock.
D-Sub connectors of this configuration are widely used in industrial control systems, data acquisition equipment, and legacy computing applications. Substitute parts become necessary when the primary manufacturer part is unavailable, when alternative packaging formats are required, or when design specifications allow for compatible alternatives from other manufacturers.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Active Status Parts:
Parts with active product status are preferred for new designs and ongoing production. Among the substitute options, the following active parts meet the mandatory compatibility parameters:
-
09652216703 and 09652617713 (HARTING): Both maintain the -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range matching the L717DA15PV. Current rating of 6.5A is lower than the primary part; selection requires confirmation that application current does not exceed 6.5A. Voltage rating is not specified; applications requiring 300V rating should not use these parts.
-
1-338310-2 and 1-5747872-6 (TE Connectivity AMP): Both are RoHS compliant. Operating temperature range is -55°C to 105°C, which is narrower than the L717DA15PV (-55°C to 125°C). Current ratings are 6A and 6A respectively. Selection requires confirmation that maximum operating temperature does not exceed 105°C and that application current does not exceed 6A.
-
172-E15-113R001, 172-E15-113R011, 172-E15-113R021, and 172-E15-113R911 (NorComp Inc.): All are ROHS3 compliant and active. Operating temperature range is -50°C to 100°C, narrower than the L717DA15PV. Current rating is 5A, lower than the primary part. These parts are suitable only for applications with maximum operating temperature not exceeding 100°C and current not exceeding 5A.
Obsolete Status Parts:
- 172-015-112R001 and 172-015-112R011 (NorComp Inc.): These parts are obsolete and should not be selected for new designs. Existing inventory may be available but future procurement is not assured.
Compliance Considerations:
All listed substitute parts maintain UL94 V-0 material flammability rating. RoHS compliance status varies: Amphenol ICC L717DA15PV is RoHS Compliant; HARTING parts are ROHS3 Compliant; TE Connectivity parts are RoHS Compliant; NorComp parts are ROHS3 Compliant. REACH compliance status is consistent across all parts (REACH Unaffected or Vendor Undefined).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I use a substitute part with a lower current rating than the L717DA15PV?
A: Substitution with a lower current rating is permissible only if the application current requirement does not exceed the substitute part's rating. The L717DA15PV is rated at 7.5A. Substitute parts with 6.5A, 6A, or 5A ratings can be used only in applications where the maximum current does not exceed the substitute part's rating. Exceeding the rated current will result in connector failure and potential safety hazards.
Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference?
A: The L717DA15PV has a voltage rating of 300V. Substitute parts from HARTING (09652216703, 09652617713) and TE Connectivity (1-338310-2) do not specify a voltage rating in the provided data. The TE Connectivity part 1-5747872-6 specifies 125V. Applications requiring 300V isolation or operating at voltages above 125V should not use substitute parts with unspecified or lower voltage ratings.
Q: Why do some substitute parts have a narrower operating temperature range?
A: The L717DA15PV operates from -55°C to 125°C. Several substitute parts (TE Connectivity series and NorComp 172-E series) operate from -55°C to 105°C or -50°C to 100°C. This narrower range reflects different material and design specifications. Substitution is acceptable only if the application environment does not exceed the substitute part's maximum temperature limit.
Q: What is the difference between machined and stamped contact forms?
A: The L717DA15PV uses machined contacts, as do the NorComp 172 series parts. HARTING parts use stamped contacts. Machined contacts generally provide more consistent contact resistance and are preferred for high-reliability applications. Stamped contacts are acceptable for general-purpose applications. Contact form selection should align with application reliability requirements.
Q: Can I substitute a part with a different shell finish?
A: The L717DA15PV has a steel shell with tin plating. Substitute parts offer steel with tin plating (Amphenol, TE Connectivity) or steel with nickel plating (NorComp 172-E series). Shell finish affects corrosion resistance and environmental suitability. Nickel-plated shells provide enhanced corrosion resistance in harsh environments. Tin-plated shells are suitable for standard industrial environments. Selection should consider the application environment.
Q: What does "Flange Feature" mean and why does it matter?
A: Flange feature describes the mechanical mounting interface. The L717DA15PV has an unthreaded housing/shell flange. Substitute parts offer variations: unthreaded housing/shell, threaded housing/shell (4-40), board side (4-40), or mating side female screwlock (4-40). The flange feature must be compatible with the PCB or panel mounting design. Mismatched flange features will prevent proper installation.
Q: Are HARTING parts 09652216703 and 09652617713 interchangeable with each other?
A: Both HARTING parts are 15 position D-Sub plugs with identical electrical ratings (6.5A, -55°C to 125°C) and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is that 09652617713 includes a "Board Lock" feature in addition to grounding indents, while 09652216703 has only grounding indents. Both are mechanically and electrically compatible. Selection depends on whether the board lock feature is required for the application.
Q: Why should I avoid obsolete parts like 172-015-112R001?
A: Obsolete parts are no longer in active production. While existing inventory may be available, future procurement cannot be assured. Using obsolete parts in new designs creates supply chain risk and complicates long-term product support. Active status parts are recommended for all new designs and ongoing production.
Q: What packaging formats are available for these substitute parts?
A: The L717DA15PV is supplied in Tray packaging. Substitute parts are available in multiple packaging formats: Tray (Amphenol, NorComp), Bulk (HARTING), and Tube (TE Connectivity 1-5747872-6). Packaging format affects handling, storage, and cost. Selection should consider manufacturing process requirements and inventory management practices.
