Molex 0469920840 Rectangular Connector Receptacle Housing – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0469920840 is an 8-position rectangular connector receptacle housing designed for the Mini-Fit Jr Versa 46992 series. This component functions as a female socket housing with crimp termination and latch lock fastening, operating across the temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The part is classified as Active product status and maintains full ROHS3 compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part specifications, enabling direct functional replacement in applications where connector color or series variation does not impact circuit performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0469920840 are identified based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), number of positions (8), pitch (0.165" / 4.20mm), number of rows (2), row spacing (0.165" / 4.20mm), mounting type (free hanging in-line), contact termination (crimp), fastening type (latch lock), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C). All substitute parts maintain glow wire compliance and ROHS3 compliance status. Variations in color, series designation, packaging format, and insulation material specification (PA66 versus PA) do not affect functional interchangeability when these core electrical and mechanical parameters remain constant. The substitute parts listed represent alternative manufacturers and series options that satisfy identical connector interface requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and satisfy ROHS3 or equivalent RoHS compliance requirements. The Molex 0469920820, 0469920830, 1727080108, and 2125141008 options represent internal Molex series variants within the Mini-Fit Jr Versa, Mini-Fit TPA2, and Mini-Fit Max product families. These parts are functionally equivalent to the primary part 0469920840 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10127815-08LF represents a cross-manufacturer alternative from the Minitek® Pwr 4.2 series, offering equivalent performance with RoHS compliance certification. Selection among these alternatives depends on application-specific requirements regarding connector color coding, series compatibility with existing connector systems, and packaging format preference (bag versus bulk). All parts are suitable for direct substitution in applications where the specified electrical and mechanical interface requirements are met.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0469920840 be directly replaced with the Amphenol ICC 10127815-08LF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters: 8-position receptacle housing, 0.165" (4.20mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, crimp termination, latch lock fastening, and -40°C to 105°C operating temperature range. The primary difference is manufacturer and series designation. Both maintain glow wire compliance and appropriate RoHS certification status.

Q: What is the significance of color variation among the substitute parts?

A: Color variation (blue, red, green, black, natural) serves as a visual identifier for circuit organization and does not affect electrical or mechanical function. Selection of color is determined by application-specific wiring conventions or assembly documentation requirements.

Q: Are the Molex Mini-Fit Jr Versa, Mini-Fit TPA2, and Mini-Fit Max series housings mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes, within the constraint of identical position count, pitch, and row configuration. The 0469920840 (Mini-Fit Jr Versa), 1727080108 (Mini-Fit TPA2), and 2125141008 (Mini-Fit Max) all maintain 8 positions at 0.165" (4.20mm) pitch with 2-row spacing. Series designation reflects internal Molex product line organization but does not prevent functional substitution when core parameters align.

Q: Does packaging format (bag versus bulk) affect connector performance?

A: No. Packaging format (bag or bulk) is a logistics and handling specification only. The part 1727080108 is supplied in bulk packaging while others are supplied in bag packaging. This distinction does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) consideration for these parts?

A: The primary part 0469920840 and most substitutes list MSL as Not Applicable, indicating these components do not require moisture-controlled storage. The exception is 1727080108, which specifies MSL 1 (Unlimited), also indicating no moisture sensitivity restriction.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All listed parts are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing according to manufacturer specifications and application requirements.
