Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0934454501 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

  • Connector Type & Contact Type: Both substitutes maintain plug configuration with female socket contacts
  • Position Count: All parts accommodate 6 positions
  • Mounting Configuration: Free-hanging in-line mounting preserved across all alternatives
  • Termination Method: Crimp contact termination maintained
  • Fastening Mechanism: Latch lock fastening consistent
  • Color & Housing Material: Black color specification maintained
  • Environmental Rating: IP68 sealing capability present in primary substitute

The two identified substitutes represent active product alternatives from established connector manufacturers, addressing the obsolescence of the original Molex part.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity DT06-6S-CE13 is the direct manufacturer substitute, offering active product status with ROHS3 compliance and extended environmental protection through IP6K9K rating. This part provides the most direct functional replacement with enhanced sealing capabilities.

Amphenol AT06-6S-SR02BLK is the manufacturer-recommended alternative, providing active product status with ROHS3 compliance and integrated strain relief. This option offers equivalent core functionality with additional mechanical protection features.

Both substitutes are currently in active production with substantial inventory availability, ensuring supply chain continuity. Selection between these alternatives should be based on specific application requirements regarding environmental sealing levels and mechanical strain relief needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity DT06-6S-CE13 directly replace the Molex 0934454501?

A: The DT06-6S-CE13 maintains all critical functional parameters: 6-position plug housing with female socket contacts, crimp termination, latch lock fastening, and free-hanging in-line mounting. The primary difference is row configuration (3 rows versus 2 rows), which affects physical layout but not electrical function for 6-position applications. IP68 sealing is preserved with additional IP6K9K protection.

Q: What is the significance of the row configuration difference?

A: The original Molex part uses a 2-row configuration while both substitutes employ 3-row layouts. This affects the physical footprint and connector geometry. Applications must accommodate the different pin arrangement; however, the 6-position, crimp-terminated, latch-lock design remains functionally equivalent.

Q: Are both substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the TE Connectivity DT06-6S-CE13 and Amphenol AT06-6S-SR02BLK are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

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

A: The TE Connectivity part emphasizes enhanced environmental sealing (IP6K9K) and includes reduced wire seals and shrink boot adapter features. The Amphenol part includes integrated strain relief and uses thermoplastic insulation material. Both maintain equivalent core connector functionality.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. The Molex 0934454501 and both substitute parts are housings only; female socket contacts must be sourced separately and are not included.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: The original Molex part does not specify operating temperature. Both substitute parts operate across -55°C to 125°C, providing defined thermal performance for industrial applications.
