XHP-4-R Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XHP-4-R is a 4-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by JST Sales America Inc. in the XH series. This receptacle housing accepts female socket contacts with a 0.098" (2.50mm) pitch and is designed for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. The part is actively produced and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for industrial and commercial electronic assemblies where standardized connector interfaces are required.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, when specific color or material requirements differ from design specifications, or when alternative series offer enhanced performance characteristics within the same electrical and mechanical envelope.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XHP-4-R is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), number of positions (4), pitch (0.098" / 2.50mm), number of rows (1), mounting type (free hanging in-line), and contact termination method (crimp). All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements.

The substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on insulation material composition:

Polyamide (PA6) / Nylon 6 Group: XHP-4-R (JST) operates within -25°C to 85°C with PA6 insulation.

Polyamide (PA66) / Nylon 6/6 and Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) Groups: TE Connectivity parts (171822-4, 172142-4, 4-171822-4, 440133-4, 1-1534150-1) utilize PA66 or PBT insulation materials, offering extended operating temperature ranges and alternative performance profiles while maintaining identical pitch, position count, and mounting characteristics.

All substitute parts are RoHS compliant and carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain active product status and RoHS compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment with the XHP-4-R. Selection among substitutes depends on application-specific requirements:

For standard operating conditions (-25°C to 85°C): 171822-4, 172142-4, 4-171822-4, and 440133-4 are suitable. The 440133-4 (HPI series) extends the upper temperature limit to 105°C, providing margin for thermal stress environments.

For extended low-temperature operation (below -25°C): 1-1534150-1 operates to -40°C, though its upper limit is 80°C.

For REACH compliance requirements: 172142-4 and 440133-4 carry explicit REACH status documentation (REACH Affected and REACH Unaffected, respectively).

For material-specific applications: PA66 insulation (171822-4, 172142-4, 4-171822-4, 440133-4) offers higher thermal stability than PA6. PBT glass-filled insulation (1-1534150-1) provides enhanced mechanical rigidity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XHP-4-R be directly replaced with any of the listed substitutes?

A: Yes, all listed parts are parametric equivalents sharing identical connector type, contact type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, and contact termination. Physical and electrical compatibility is maintained across all substitutes.

Q: What is the significance of insulation material differences?

A: Insulation material affects thermal stability and mechanical properties. PA6 (XHP-4-R) and PA66 (TE EI series) are both polyamides with similar electrical characteristics but different temperature ratings. PBT glass-filled (1-1534150-1) offers superior rigidity and chemical resistance. Material selection should align with application thermal and mechanical requirements.

Q: Are there color restrictions for substitution?

A: Color is a cosmetic parameter and does not affect electrical or mechanical function. XHP-4-R (red), 1-1534150-1 (black), 171822-4 (natural), 172142-4 (natural), 4-171822-4 (blue), and 440133-4 (natural) are interchangeable from a functional standpoint. Color selection may be driven by assembly documentation, traceability, or visual identification requirements.

Q: What operating temperature range should I select?

A: Choose based on application extremes. XHP-4-R operates -25°C to 85°C. For applications exceeding 85°C, select 171822-4, 172142-4, 4-171822-4 (all -20°C to 95°C) or 440133-4 (-25°C to 105°C). For applications below -25°C, 1-1534150-1 (-40°C to 80°C) is required.

Q: Do all parts accept the same contact types?

A: Yes. All parts are receptacle housings designed for female socket contacts with 0.098" (2.50mm) pitch. Contact compatibility is maintained across all substitutes.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both designations indicate RoHS compliance. ROHS3 refers to compliance with the most recent RoHS directive iteration. Both are acceptable for regulatory purposes; selection depends on customer or regional requirements.
