Molex 0334823643 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0334823643 is a 6-position rectangular connector plug housing with 4.60mm pitch, designed for crimp contact termination in free-hanging inline applications. This connector is part of the MX150 33482 series and features sealed construction with gray polyamide housing. The part is currently active in production and ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for modern electronic assemblies requiring environmental sealing and reliable contact engagement through locking ramp fastening.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the same connector series, allowing for interchangeability in circuit designs and assembly processes.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0334823643 are identified based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution criteria are:

Identical connector type (Plug)
Identical number of positions (6)
Identical pitch specification (0.138" / 4.60mm)
Identical number of rows (2)
Identical contact type (Male Blade)
Identical contact termination method (Crimp)
Identical fastening type (Locking Ramp)
Identical mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line)
Identical insulation material composition
Identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 150°C)
Identical sealing features
Identical RoHS compliance status (ROHS3)
Same manufacturer (Molex) and series (MX150 33482)

The substitute parts 0334823601 and 0334823602 meet all these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the primary part number 0334823643.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are parts 0334823601 and 0334823602 fully interchangeable with 0334823643?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, position count, pitch, contact configuration, termination method, fastening mechanism, and operating parameters. They are direct substitutes within the MX150 33482 series.

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

A: The primary difference is packaging format. Part 0334823643 uses standard packaging, while 0334823601 and 0334823602 use bulk packaging. All other specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use a substitute part in an existing assembly design?

A: Yes. Since all three parts are parametrically equivalent across all critical dimensions and electrical characteristics, substitution does not require design modification or re-qualification of the connector interface.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All three part numbers carry ROHS3 compliance certification and MSL Level 1 rating, meeting current regulatory and environmental requirements.

Q: What does the sealed feature provide?

A: The sealed construction protects the connector contacts from environmental contamination, moisture ingress, and dust, ensuring reliable electrical contact engagement in applications requiring environmental protection.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three part numbers are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing according to Molex specifications.
