XLP.M13.GLLB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XLP.M13.GLLB is a 13-position circular connector receptacle with female sockets and solder cup termination, manufactured by LEMO in the XP series. This connector is designed for panel mount applications with bulkhead rear side nut mounting and push-pull fastening. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XLP.M13.GLLB is determined by the following critical parameters:

Direct Equivalent Criteria:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of positions: 13
• Shell size: M13
• Mounting type: Panel Mount with Bulkhead - Rear Side Nut
• Termination: Solder Cup
• Fastening type: Push-Pull
• Contact finish: Gold
• Ingress protection: IP50
• Operating temperature range: -50°C ~ 170°C
• Insert material: PEEK

Similar Substitute Criteria (with parameter deviations):

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Mounting type: Panel Mount with Bulkhead - Rear Side Nut
• Termination: Solder Cup
• Contact finish: Gold
• Ingress protection: IP50
• Operating temperature range: -50°C ~ 170°C
• Insert material: PEEK

The SLP.M13.GLLB qualifies as a direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The PLG.M1.4SL.LG is classified as a similar substitute due to deviations in position count (14 vs. 13), shell size (M14 vs. M13), shell material (PEI vs. Sulfone), fastening type (includes Detent Lock), current rating (2A vs. 4A), and orientation (G vs. P).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SLP.M13.GLLB (Direct Equivalent): The SLP.M13.GLLB is the primary substitute for the obsolete XLP.M13.GLLB. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters, including position count, shell size, current rating, and operating temperature range. The SLP.M13.GLLB is currently in active production status with 752 units in stock. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. The transition from the XP series to the SP series represents a product line evolution while maintaining full functional compatibility.

PLG.M1.4SL.LG (Similar Substitute): The PLG.M1.4SL.LG is classified as a similar substitute and should be considered only when the specific deviations are acceptable for the application. This part differs in four critical parameters: position count (14 vs. 13), shell size (M14 vs. M13), current rating (2A vs. 4A), and shell material (PEI vs. Sulfone). The reduced current rating of 2A may be limiting for applications requiring the full 4A capacity of the original part. The larger M14 shell size and additional position may require mechanical redesign of the connector interface. This part is currently in active production with 738 units in stock and maintains ROHS3 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SLP.M13.GLLB be used as a direct replacement for the XLP.M13.GLLB?

A: Yes. The SLP.M13.GLLB is a direct equivalent with identical specifications for connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, termination method, current rating, and operating temperature range. No design modifications are required for this substitution.

Q: What are the limitations of using PLG.M1.4SL.LG as a substitute?

A: The PLG.M1.4SL.LG introduces four parameter deviations: it has 14 positions instead of 13, uses M14 shell size instead of M13, provides 2A current rating instead of 4A, and uses PEI shell material instead of Sulfone. These differences require mechanical redesign of the connector interface and may limit current-carrying capacity. This substitute is suitable only when these deviations align with application requirements.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SLP.M13.GLLB and PLG.M1.4SL.LG are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the original XLP.M13.GLLB.

Q: What is the difference between the XP and SP series designations?

A: The XP series (XLP.M13.GLLB) is obsolete, while the SP series (SLP.M13.GLLB) represents the current active product line from LEMO. Both series maintain identical specifications for this 13-position M13 receptacle configuration.

Q: Can the PLG.M1.4SL.LG be used in high-current applications?

A: The PLG.M1.4SL.LG has a maximum current rating of 2A, which is half the 4A rating of the XLP.M13.GLLB. Applications requiring sustained currents above 2A should use the SLP.M13.GLLB direct equivalent instead.

Q: Are there any temperature operating range differences between the substitutes?

A: No. All three parts—XLP.M13.GLLB, SLP.M13.GLLB, and PLG.M1.4SL.LG—share the same operating temperature range of -50°C to 170°C.
