Molex 0334822150 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0334822150 is a 20-position rectangular connector plug housing designed for the MX150 33482 series. This sealed plug housing accommodates male blade contacts with a 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch and features a locking ramp fastening mechanism. The connector is configured with 2 rows and supports crimp-style contact termination. This part is classified as Active product status and is suitable for free-hanging in-line mounting applications. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector series, allowing for component interchangeability in applications where specific housing colors or material compositions are acceptable alternatives.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0334822150 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug housing configuration
• Number of Positions: 20-position capacity
• Pitch: 0.138" (3.50mm) contact spacing
• Number of Rows: 2-row arrangement
• Contact Type: Male blade contacts
• Mounting Type: Free hanging in-line configuration
• Contact Termination: Crimp termination method
• Fastening Type: Locking ramp mechanism
• Features: Sealed design
• Series: MX150 33482 family

The substitute parts 0334822101 and 0334822102 maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations between the main part and substitutes are limited to housing color and insulation material composition, which do not affect functional compatibility within the MX150 33482 connector series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—0334822150, 0334822101, and 0334822102—maintain Active product status within the Molex MX150 33482 connector series. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements:

0334822150 is the primary specification with black housing and SPS (Syndiotactic Polystyrene) glass-filled insulation material.

0334822101 provides an equivalent alternative with black housing and dual insulation material composition (Polyamide/Nylon and SPS glass-filled). This part carries ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating enhanced environmental and moisture handling characteristics.

0334822102 offers functional equivalence with gray housing and the same dual insulation material composition as 0334822101. This part also carries ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating.

Selection should be based on color requirements, compliance certifications needed for the application, and material composition preferences. All three parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the MX150 33482 series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0334822101 and 0334822102 be used interchangeably with 0334822150?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, contact termination, and fastening mechanism. Differences are limited to housing color and insulation material composition, which do not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the primary difference between the main part and the substitute parts?

A: The main part 0334822150 features black housing with SPS glass-filled insulation. Substitute 0334822101 provides black housing with Polyamide/Nylon and SPS glass-filled insulation. Substitute 0334822102 provides gray housing with the same dual insulation material composition as 0334822101. All maintain the same 20-position, 3.50mm pitch configuration.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: The main part 0334822150 does not specify RoHS or REACH compliance status in the provided data. Substitutes 0334822101 and 0334822102 are both ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Applications requiring specific compliance certifications should select accordingly.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicate on the substitute parts?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 with unlimited shelf life. This represents the lowest moisture sensitivity classification, meaning the component can be stored without time restrictions or special moisture control measures.

Q: Do these parts require contacts to be purchased separately?

A: Yes. All three parts are connector housings only. The specification note states "Contacts Not Included" for all variants. Male blade contacts compatible with the MX150 33482 series must be sourced separately.

Q: What is the difference between the HTSUS codes for 0334822150 and 0334822102?

A: The main part 0334822150 carries HTSUS code 8538.90.6000, while substitute 0334822102 carries HTSUS code 8536.69.8000. This difference reflects tariff classification variations and may impact import/export documentation. Consult trade compliance requirements for your specific application.

Q: Can housing color be changed after assembly?

A: No. Housing color is an integral part of the molded connector design. If color specification is critical to the application, select the appropriate part number (0334822150 for black, 0334822102 for gray).
