Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 2-146134-1 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0015910307?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, contact configuration, pitch, position count, row spacing, mounting type, termination method, and fastening mechanism. The 30-position 2-row 2.54mm pitch header configuration is mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish between these parts?

A: The Molex 0015910307 features gold mating contact finish at 15.0µin thickness, while the TE Connectivity 2-146134-1 uses tin mating contact finish at 100.0µin thickness. Both parts use tin post finish. The difference in mating contact finish does not affect mechanical compatibility but may influence corrosion resistance characteristics in specific environmental applications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating, are REACH unaffected, and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4040) classifications.

Q: What is the difference in insulation material composition?

A: The Molex part uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) with glass fill, while the TE Connectivity part uses LCP without specified glass fill. Both materials provide UL94 V-0 flammability performance and are suitable for surface mount header applications.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges specified for both parts?

A: Operating temperature is not specified for the Molex 0015910307. The TE Connectivity 2-146134-1 operates from -65°C to 125°C. Verify thermal requirements against your specific application before selection.

Q: What are the current and voltage ratings?

A: Current and voltage ratings are not specified for the Molex 0015910307. The TE Connectivity 2-146134-1 is rated for 3A at 30VAC. Confirm electrical requirements against your circuit design specifications.
