Molex 0850424696 DIN Connector Receptacle – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0850424696 is a 96-position DIN connector receptacle with female sockets, gold plating, and through-hole termination. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The connector is designed for backplane applications requiring high-density interconnection with reliable contact performance across industrial temperature ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0850424696 is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of Positions: 96
• Number of Positions Loaded: 64
• Pitch: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Rows: 3
• Style: C
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Termination: Solder
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

All four substitute parts meet these core requirements. Variations exist in contact finish specifications, insulation material composition, and operating temperature ratings, which are documented in the parameter comparison table below.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four HARTING DIN 41612 series connectors are active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, providing regulatory continuity for the obsolete Molex 0850424696.

HARTING 09032646824: Suitable for applications where contact finish specification is not critical. Maintains core mechanical and electrical compatibility with the original part.

HARTING 09032646829: Recommended for applications requiring gold or gold-palladium contact finish with specified operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and 2A current rating. Uses PCT insulation material.

HARTING 09032647824: Provides enhanced contact reliability through gold or gold-palladium finish and specified 2A current rating. Classified as Level 3, indicating higher performance standards. Uses PBT insulation material. Note: Level 3 classification represents a performance upgrade from the original Level 2 specification.

HARTING 09034646825: Matches the mounting clip feature of the original Molex part, providing mechanical installation compatibility. Suitable for applications where mounting clip functionality is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HARTING 09032647824 be used as a direct replacement for Molex 0850424696?

A: Yes. The HARTING 09032647824 meets all core substitution parameters: 96 positions, 64 loaded, 0.100" pitch, 3 rows, Style C, through-hole solder termination, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and ROHS3 compliance. The Level 3 classification represents enhanced performance specifications compared to the original Level 2 part.

Q: What is the difference between the four substitute options?

A: The primary differences are contact finish specification, insulation material composition, and the presence of mounting clips. HARTING 09032646829 and 09032647824 specify gold or gold-palladium contact finish with 2A current rating. HARTING 09034646825 includes mounting clips matching the original design. HARTING 09032646824 does not specify contact finish or current rating.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All four HARTING substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the regulatory status of the original Molex 0850424696.

Q: Does the insulation material difference affect compatibility?

A: The insulation material variations (PCT, PBT, or generic thermoplastic) do not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility for standard backplane connector applications. Material selection is determined by specific environmental or performance requirements of the application.

Q: Which substitute part has the best inventory availability?

A: HARTING 09032646824 has the highest inventory level at 4033 pieces in stock, followed by HARTING 09032646829 at 1152 pieces and HARTING 09034646825 at 1098 pieces.
