Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 171-009-102-011 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector Style: D-Sub
• Connector Type: Plug, Male Pins
• Number of Positions: 9
• Number of Rows: 2
• Shell Size, Connector Layout: 1 (DE, E)
• Termination: Solder Cup
• Shell Material, Finish: Steel, Nickel Plated
• Contact Finish: Gold

Substitute Parts Identified:

1. 171-009-103L011 (NorComp Inc.) — Direct manufacturer equivalent with identical core parameters. Differs in mounting type (panel mount vs. unspecified in detailed specs) and packaging (Tray). Current rating 5A matches the main part.

2. 627-009-222-041 (Mercury United Electronics, Inc.) — Cross-manufacturer substitute from the 627 series. Maintains 9-position D-Sub configuration with solder cup termination. Differs in mounting type (free hanging in-line vs. panel mount) and current rating (3A per contact vs. 5A). Operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 85°C.

3. 627-009-222-042 (Mercury United Electronics, Inc.) — Cross-manufacturer substitute from the 627 series. Maintains 9-position D-Sub configuration with solder cup termination. Differs in mounting type (free hanging in-line vs. panel mount) and current rating (3A per contact vs. 5A). Operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 85°C.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

171-009-103L011 is the primary equivalent substitute. Both parts are manufactured by NorComp Inc., share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, and maintain the same current rating (5A) and operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 100°C). Both are ROHS3 compliant and actively produced. Selection between these two NorComp parts depends on packaging requirements (Tray vs. standard packaging) and specific mounting configuration needs.

627-009-222-041 and 627-009-222-042 are cross-manufacturer alternatives from Mercury United Electronics, Inc. These parts maintain the core D-Sub 9-position configuration with solder cup termination and gold-plated contacts. However, they differ in two critical parameters: mounting type (free hanging in-line vs. panel mount) and current rating (3A per contact vs. 5A). The operating temperature range is also narrower (-55°C ~ 85°C vs. -50°C ~ 100°C). These parts are suitable only when the application can accommodate free hanging in-line mounting and when the reduced current rating (3A per contact) meets circuit requirements.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 171-009-103L011 be used as a direct replacement for 171-009-102-011?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by NorComp Inc., share identical connector type (9-position D-Sub plug with male pins), shell size (1 DE/E), termination method (solder cup), and electrical ratings (5A current, -50°C ~ 100°C operating temperature). The primary difference is packaging format (Tray vs. standard). Both are ROHS3 compliant and actively produced.

Q: What are the key differences between NorComp and Mercury parts?

A: The NorComp 171 series parts (171-009-102-011 and 171-009-103L011) are panel mount connectors with 5A current rating. The Mercury 627 series parts (627-009-222-041 and 627-009-222-042) are free hanging in-line connectors with 3A per contact current rating. The Mercury parts also have a narrower operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C vs. -50°C ~ 100°C). Selection depends on mounting configuration and current requirements.

Q: Can Mercury 627-009-222-041 or 627-009-222-042 be used in applications requiring panel mount configuration?

A: No. These Mercury parts are designed for free hanging in-line mounting, not panel mount. The 171-009-103L011 is the appropriate panel mount substitute for the 171-009-102-011.

Q: Are there current rating limitations when using Mercury parts as substitutes?

A: Yes. Mercury parts 627-009-222-041 and 627-009-222-042 are rated at 3A per contact, compared to 5A for the NorComp 171 series. Applications requiring current levels above 3A per contact must use NorComp parts (171-009-102-011 or 171-009-103L011).

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All parts listed (171-009-102-011, 171-009-103L011, 627-009-222-041, and 627-009-222-042) are ROHS3 compliant, UL94 V-0 rated, and have MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level. All are actively produced and available as new original inventory.

Q: What is the difference between the two Mercury parts (627-009-222-041 and 627-009-222-042)?

A: Both Mercury parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is packaging: 627-009-222-041 is supplied in Tray packaging, while 627-009-222-042 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both maintain the same connector configuration, current rating (3A per contact), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C).
