What it is
The S4P-VH is a 4-position single-row right-angle through-hole header in Jushikeikin's VH series — a 0.156 inch (3.96 mm) pitch family used across industrial harness and power distribution boards. At 10 A per circuit the S4P-VH sits above typical signal-header ratings for this pitch — the 3.96 mm body and square male pin carry real power-interconnect duty, not just logic-level signals. Contacts are brass with tin plating on both the mating face and the solder tail; the 1-wall shroud and locking ramp add mis-mate protection that an unshrouded header lacks — relevant when the connector sees field mating or panel-level service.
Ratings that drive the fit
Pitch is 0.156 inch (3.96 mm) — confirm this against the PCB footprint or the matching housing's stated pitch. The insulation height of 0.335 inch (8.51 mm) sets the seated height in the board cavity. Current is 10 A per circuit — the 250 V rating means the S4P-VH can carry power on individual pins without derating concerns at the connector level. At 4 circuits that is a compact 4-circuit power bus. Operating temperature is -25°C to 85°C — sufficient for most enclosed-equipment and industrial-panel environments; the UL94 V-0 polyamide housing is self-extinguishing under fault conditions.
Same series, different position count
The S5P-VH, S6P-VH, and S7P-VH share every rating — same pitch, current, voltage, plating, mounting, shrouding, and locking ramp. The only selection variable is position count: 5, 6, or 7 circuits against the 4 of the S4P-VH. If your BOM specifies a 5-position board-to-cable header at this pitch and rating, the S5P-VH is the direct substitute with no re-layout. The panel cutout and footprint are identical — only the position count changes.
Lifecycle and sourcing
The S4P-VH is Active and ROHS3 Compliant. No lifecycle watch or last-time-buy date has been issued. Sourced to order against the BOM quantity. The pitch, circuit count, and ratings match the series spec — confirm the position count against the BOM line before committing; the mating half (matching VH receptacle housing) must carry the same 0.156 inch (3.96 mm) pitch.
