Molex 0334822001 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0334822001 is a 20-position rectangular connector plug housing designed for MX150 series applications. This component features a 4.60mm pitch, male blade contact configuration, and sealed design suitable for free-hanging in-line mounting. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct compatibility without circuit redesign or connector interface modification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0334822101 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 0334822001. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The 0334822101 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with existing designs utilizing the 0334822001, requiring no circuit modification or connector interface redesign.

Selection of the 0334822101 is appropriate for new procurement, system refresh, or replacement applications where the original 0334822001 is no longer available. The active product status of the 0334822101 ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0334822101 be used as a direct replacement for the 0334822001?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters, including connector type, position count, pitch, contact configuration, mounting method, and fastening mechanism. No design changes are required.

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

A: The primary differences are product status (0334822001 is obsolete; 0334822101 is active) and packaging (0334822101 is supplied in bulk). All functional and dimensional specifications are equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory standards.

Q: Does the bulk packaging of the 0334822101 affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging configuration does not affect the electrical or mechanical performance of the connector housing. The bulk packaging of the 0334822101 is a supply and logistics consideration only.

Q: What materials are used in the 0334822101?

A: The insulation material consists of Polyamide (PA), Nylon, Glass Filled, and Syndiotatic Polystyrene (SPS).

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: The 0334822101 operates across -40°C to 150°C. This specification applies to the substitute part.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. Both the 0334822001 and 0334822101 are supplied as housings only. Contacts must be procured separately and crimped into the housing.
