Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1526062-2 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge: 2/0 AWG (required match)
• Contact material: Copper (required match)
• Contact finish: Tin (required match)
• Termination method: Crimp (required match)
• Insulation type: Non-insulated (required match)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Terminal type: Flat-sided, tubular battery lug configuration (required match)
• Mounting classification: Free-hanging, in-line orientation (required match)

Regulatory & Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 compliance (required match)
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited) (required match)

The Molex 0192210245 qualifies as a substitute based on matching all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Dimensional variations in thickness, width, and length do not preclude substitution when the stud/tab size specification (1/2 stud) aligns with the application requirements. The substitute part maintains identical wire gauge, contact material, contact finish, termination method, and regulatory compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0192210245 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 1526062-2 based on the following engineering criteria:

Regulatory Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), ensuring compatibility with current environmental and moisture sensitivity requirements.

Electrical Specification Alignment: The substitute part matches all critical electrical parameters: 2/0 AWG wire gauge, copper contact material with tin finish, and crimp termination method. Non-insulated configuration is identical across both parts.

Mechanical Specification Alignment: Both parts feature flat-sided, tubular battery lug terminal geometry with free-hanging, in-line mounting orientation. The Molex part specifies a 1/2 stud size, which must be verified against the application's stud/tab requirements.

Product Status Advantage: The Molex 0192210245 is classified as active product status, providing assured long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete TE Connectivity part.

Dimensional Considerations: Dimensional differences in thickness, width, and overall length exist between the two parts. These variations do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility when the 1/2 stud size specification aligns with the application's mounting interface.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0192210245 be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 1526062-2?

A: The Molex 0192210245 qualifies as a substitute based on matching wire gauge (2/0 AWG), contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), termination method (crimp), terminal type (flat-sided tubular battery lug), and regulatory compliance (ROHS3). The 1/2 stud size specification must be compatible with the application's mounting interface.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by: wire gauge (2/0 AWG), contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), termination method (crimp), and insulation type (non-insulated). All substitute parts must match these parameters exactly.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between the main part and the substitute?

A: Yes. The Molex 0192210245 has different thickness (0.110" vs. 0.180"), width (0.813" vs. 0.950"), and specified overall length (2.062"). These dimensional variations do not affect electrical compatibility when the stud size aligns with application requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the 1/2 stud size specification on the Molex part?

A: The 1/2 stud size indicates the diameter of the mounting stud or tab interface. This specification must be verified against the application's connection point to ensure proper mechanical fit and electrical contact.

Q: Does the substitute part maintain the same regulatory compliance?

A: Yes. Both the TE Connectivity 1526062-2 and Molex 0192210245 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), ensuring equivalent regulatory status.

Q: Why is the TE Connectivity part classified as obsolete?

A: The TE Connectivity 1526062-2 is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer in active production. The Molex 0192210245 is classified as active product status, providing assured availability for new designs and replacement applications.

Q: What packaging format is available for the substitute part?

A: The Molex 0192210245 is supplied in bulk packaging format with 1558 pieces available in new original stock.
