SLP-03V Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The SLP-03V is a 3-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by JST Sales America Inc., designed for wire-to-wire applications. This plug-type connector features female socket contacts with a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch and operates across a temperature range of -25°C to 90°C. The connector utilizes crimp termination and latch lock fastening, with polyamide (PA66) nylon 6/6 insulation material. The product maintains active status with 947 pieces currently in stock.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, inventory availability, or specific packaging requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the same connector family.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SLP-03V is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 3
• Pitch: 0.156" (3.96mm)
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Contact Termination: Crimp

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Number of Rows: 1

Environmental & Material Parameters:

• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
• Operating Temperature: -25°C ~ 90°C
• Color: White

The HLP-03V qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical values across all critical electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters. Substitution is valid regardless of packaging format or inventory quantity differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SLP-03V and HLP-03V maintain active product status with JST Sales America Inc., ensuring continued availability and support. The HLP-03V offers significantly higher inventory availability (27,438 pieces versus 947 pieces), making it suitable for high-volume production requirements or extended lead-time mitigation strategies.

The HLP-03V is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling. These compliance certifications align with the SLP-03V's operational requirements.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements (bulk versus standard) and inventory availability rather than electrical or mechanical performance, as both parts are functionally equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HLP-03V replace SLP-03V in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors are electrically and mechanically identical across all critical parameters: 3-position, 0.156" pitch, female socket contacts, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening. Direct substitution is valid without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between SLP-03V and HLP-03V?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and inventory quantity. HLP-03V is supplied in bulk packaging with significantly higher stock levels (27,438 pieces). Both parts are functionally equivalent for wire-to-wire connector applications.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: The SLP-03V specification does not explicitly state contact inclusion. The HLP-03V specification explicitly notes that contacts are not included. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing.

Q: What are the temperature operating limits?

A: Both SLP-03V and HLP-03V operate across -25°C to 90°C. This range is suitable for industrial and commercial applications within standard environmental conditions.

Q: Is the HLP-03V suitable for high-volume production?

A: Yes. The HLP-03V's bulk packaging and high inventory availability (27,438 pieces) make it appropriate for high-volume manufacturing scenarios where supply chain continuity is critical.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to these connectors?

A: The HLP-03V is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). These certifications ensure regulatory compliance for industrial and consumer electronics applications.
