Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the S-302H-AB is determined by compatibility across the following critical parameters:

Maintained Parameters (Required for Direct Substitution):

• Connector Type: Socket, Jones
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount
• Termination: Solder Eyelet(s)
• Contact Material: Phosphor Bronze
• Contact Finish: Tin
• Insulation Material: Phenol Formaldehyde (Phenolic)
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Voltage Rating: 250 V (minimum)
• Operating Temperature: 105°C (minimum)
• RoHS Compliance: Required

Variable Parameters (Allowable Differences):

• Number of Positions: May increase
• Current Rating: May increase
• Series designation: May differ
• Product Status: Active status preferred for ongoing availability

The S-2404H-AB qualifies as a substitute based on these criteria, with the primary difference being an increased position count (4 vs. 2) and higher current rating (15 A vs. 10 A).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The S-2404H-AB is suitable as a substitute for the obsolete S-302H-AB based on electrical and mechanical compatibility. Both components maintain identical voltage and temperature ratings, contact materials, and termination methods. The S-2404H-AB offers improved current capacity (15 A vs. 10 A) and active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

The primary design consideration is the increased position count (4 vs. 2), which requires mechanical accommodation in the panel mount application. The connector footprint and flange dimensions must be evaluated for fit within the existing installation space.

Both components are RoHS compliant and suitable for applications requiring phenolic insulation and tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the S-2404H-AB directly replace the S-302H-AB in existing designs?

A: Electrical compatibility is confirmed across voltage, current, temperature, and contact specifications. Mechanical compatibility requires verification of panel cutout dimensions and flange spacing, as the 4-position configuration differs from the 2-position original.

Q: What are the key differences between these connectors?

A: The S-2404H-AB provides 4 positions versus 2, with a higher current rating of 15 A compared to 10 A. Both maintain identical voltage ratings, operating temperature, contact materials, and termination methods.

Q: Why is the S-302H-AB listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The S-2404H-AB, with active product status, represents the current alternative within the Cinch Connectivity Solutions Jones connector portfolio.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the S-302H-AB and S-2404H-AB are RoHS compliant.

Q: What packaging is available for the S-2404H-AB?

A: The S-2404H-AB is supplied in bulk packaging with 901 pieces currently in stock.
