0334710462 Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference Guide

Part Overview

The Molex 0334710462 is a rectangular connector receptacle housing part of the MX150 33471 series. It is a 4-position, single-row, sealed housing designed for free-hanging (in-line) installations, employing crimp termination and a latch holder fastening mechanism. The connector features a female socket contact type, pitch of 0.138" (3.50mm), and syndiotactic polystyrene (SPS), glass-filled insulation. The part is RoHS3 compliant and has an active status, with inventory available. It is often necessary to find alternative models due to considerations like supply chain optimization, color requirements, or material properties.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for Molex 0334710462 are determined strictly by matching the following key parameters within the rectangular connectors category: manufacturer, series, connector type, contact type, number of positions, number of rows, pitch, mounting type, contact termination method, fastening type, sealing features, and operating temperature range. Only products that share these attributes and have an active product status are considered functional substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The main part (0334710462) and the listed substitute (0334710406) both have active product status and meet RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status (where provided). When selecting a substitute for applications requiring similar certification and regulatory status, the substitute part meets these requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the primary substitution criteria for the Molex 0334710462 rectangular connector?
A: Substitution requires matching key functional parameters, including connector type, contact type, number of positions, number of rows, pitch, mounting type, contact termination, fastening type, sealing feature, and operating temperature range.

Q: Are there differences between the Molex 0334710462 and 0334710406?
A: Both connectors share all electrical and mechanical interface parameters required for substitution. The main differences are color and insulation material.

Q: Is packaging or color relevant for substitution?
A: Packaging (bag vs bulk) and color (gray vs black) do not affect the electrical or functional compatibility for most engineering uses, unless application-specific requirements dictate otherwise.

Q: Do both parts feature identical compliance status?
A: The substitute Molex 0334710406 is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Compliance status for the main part is RoHS3 compliant according to the provided data.

Q: Are contacts included in the housing parts?
A: Both 0334710462 and 0334710406 are receptacle housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately.

Q: Is there any difference in operating temperature range between the parts?
A: Both main and substitute parts have the same specified operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.
