Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete Molex 0334820646 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter alignment within the MX150 33482 series. The active equivalent part maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters: 6-position configuration, 4.60mm pitch, male blade contact type, crimp termination, locking ramp fastening, and sealed housing design. The substitute part shares the same base product number (033482), confirming compatibility within the connector family. Substitution is valid when all of the following parameters match:

• Connector type (Plug)
• Contact type (Male Blade)
• Number of positions (6)
• Pitch (4.60mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Contact termination (Crimp)
• Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
• Sealed feature requirement

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0334823646 directly replace the 0334820646 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical specifications for connector type, contact configuration, pitch, termination method, and fastening mechanism. The substitute part is functionally equivalent and suitable for direct replacement.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. The 0334820646 is obsolete, while the 0334823646 is active. Both parts are manufactured to the same electrical and mechanical specifications within the MX150 33482 series.

Q: Are there additional substitute options beyond 0334823646?

A: The substitute part 0334823646 lists additional cross-reference numbers (0334823601, 0334823602) within the same series. These parts maintain the same core specifications and may be evaluated based on specific application requirements and availability.

Q: Do both parts require the same contact specifications?

A: Yes. Both the 0334820646 and 0334823646 are designed for crimp-terminated male blade contacts. Contacts are not included with either housing and must be sourced separately to match the 6-position, 4.60mm pitch configuration.

Q: Are there any compliance or environmental differences between the parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, confirming equivalent performance in standard industrial environments.
