XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) is a 4-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by JST Sales America Inc. in the XMA series. This plug housing features a 2.50mm pitch, crimp contact termination, and latch lock fastening, designed for free-hanging in-line applications. The part is currently active in production with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required due to inventory availability, series discontinuation, or application-specific performance needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug
• Number of Positions: 4
• Pitch: 0.098" (2.50mm)
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Number of Rows: 1

Both identified substitute parts—1376477-4 and 1744417-4—meet all these criteria. Variations in color, insulation material composition, operating temperature range, and manufacturer series do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability for housing-only applications where contacts are procured separately.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and meet RoHS compliance requirements. The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) operates within -25°C to 85°C, while both substitute options extend the upper temperature limit to 105°C. The 1744417-4 provides the widest operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), suitable for applications requiring extended low-temperature performance. All parts carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, indicating no special storage or handling requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on application temperature requirements, inventory availability, and any design specifications tied to specific manufacturer series compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1376477-4 or 1744417-4 be used as direct replacements for XMAP-04V-R(M8AM)?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically equivalent as housing-only components. They share identical connector type, position count, pitch, contact type, mounting configuration, termination method, and fastening mechanism. Contacts must be sourced separately for all three parts.

Q: What is the significance of the color difference between the main part and substitutes?

A: Color is a visual identifier only and does not affect electrical or mechanical function. The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) is red; both substitutes are natural. Color selection should align with application documentation or assembly requirements.

Q: How do the operating temperature ranges differ?

A: The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) operates from -25°C to 85°C. The 1376477-4 extends to -30°C to 105°C, and the 1744417-4 provides the broadest range at -55°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -25°C or above 85°C should specify one of the substitute parts.

Q: Are there differences in insulation material between these parts?

A: Yes. The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) uses PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) glass-filled material. The 1376477-4 uses PA66 (Polyamide 6/6) glass-filled, and the 1744417-4 uses PA (Polyamide) nylon. All three materials are suitable for the specified electrical and mechanical requirements.

Q: Do all parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. All three parts carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited), meaning they require no special moisture control during storage or handling.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to these parts?

A: The XMAP-04V-R(M8AM) and 1744417-4 are RoHS Compliant. The 1376477-4 is ROHS3 Compliant. All meet the specified regulatory requirements for their respective applications.
