Molex 0334822248 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0334822248 is a 20-position rectangular connector plug housing from the MX150 33482 series. This component is a sealed, free-hanging inline connector housing designed for crimp contact termination with a 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch configuration. The part is currently active in production with 1020 units in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent rectangular connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing in packaging, color, insulation material composition, or compliance certifications. Alternative part numbers enable procurement flexibility, inventory optimization, and continuity of supply across manufacturing environments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0334822248 are qualified based on strict equivalence across the following core parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug housing configuration
• Contact Type: Male blade contact system
• Number of Positions: 20-position layout
• Pitch Specification: 0.138" (3.50mm) center-to-center spacing
• Number of Rows: 2-row arrangement
• Mounting Type: Free hanging inline orientation
• Contact Termination: Crimp connection method
• Fastening Type: Locking ramp mechanism
• Features: Sealed housing design
• Series: MX150 33482 family

Substitute parts may differ in the following non-critical parameters: color, insulation material composition, packaging format, operating temperature range, RoHS compliance status, and moisture sensitivity level. These variations do not affect electrical or mechanical interchangeability within the connector system.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three part numbers—0334822248, 0334822101, and 0334822102—are active production components within the Molex MX150 33482 rectangular connector series. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements and compliance mandates.

0334822248 is specified when black housing color is required and the original part number must be maintained for design documentation or supply chain continuity.

0334822101 provides an equivalent black housing alternative with expanded operating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C) and RoHS3 compliance certification. This part is suitable for applications requiring enhanced environmental performance and regulatory compliance documentation.

0334822102 is selected when gray housing color is required. This part includes identical electrical and mechanical specifications to 0334822101, with RoHS3 compliance and the same operating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C).

All substitute parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and REACH Unaffected status, indicating suitability for standard storage and handling conditions without specialized desiccant packaging requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 0334822101 and 0334822102 be used interchangeably with 0334822248?

A: Yes, within the constraints of color specification. Both substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters: 20-position plug housing, male blade contacts, 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, crimp termination, and locking ramp fastening. The primary difference is housing color (black for 0334822101, gray for 0334822102) and insulation material composition. Select based on your application's color requirement.

Q: What is the difference in insulation material between the main part and substitutes?

A: The main part 0334822248 uses Syndiotactic Polystyrene (SPS) with glass filling. The substitute parts 0334822101 and 0334822102 use a combination of Polyamide (PA) nylon with glass filling and Syndiotactic Polystyrene (SPS). Both material compositions are suitable for the MX150 33482 series and do not affect connector interchangeability.

Q: Are there operating temperature differences between these parts?

A: The main part 0334822248 does not specify an operating temperature range. The substitute parts 0334822101 and 0334822102 specify -40°C to 150°C operating range. If your application requires documented temperature performance specifications, select a substitute part.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The main part 0334822248 packaging is not specified in the data. Both substitute parts 0334822101 and 0334822102 are supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process before selection.

Q: Do all parts require the same contact components?

A: Yes. All three part numbers are plug housings only; contacts are not included with any variant. Contacts must be sourced separately and are compatible across all three housing part numbers within the MX150 33482 series.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: For new designs, either 0334822101 (black) or 0334822102 (gray) is recommended. Both parts include RoHS3 compliance certification, documented operating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C), and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating, providing complete compliance documentation for manufacturing and regulatory requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: The main part 0334822248 does not specify RoHS or REACH status. Both substitute parts 0334822101 and 0334822102 are RoHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. If your application requires RoHS compliance documentation, select a substitute part.
