Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for rectangular connector housings is determined by strict alignment of core electrical and mechanical parameters. The Molex 2011962240 can be substituted with equivalent parts that maintain identical specifications across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Must be Receptacle
• Contact Type: Must be Female Socket
• Number of Positions: Must be 24
• Pitch: Must be 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Number of Rows: Must be 2
• Mounting Type: Must be Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Must be Crimp
• Fastening Type: Must be Latch Lock
• Operating Temperature Range: Must be -40°C ~ 105°C

Variations in color, insulation material composition, series designation, and compliance certifications do not affect functional substitutability when all core parameters remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 2011962240 and Molex 0348240245 are functionally equivalent rectangular connector receptacle housings with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

Inventory Availability: The substitute part 0348240245 maintains significantly higher inventory levels (3109 units) compared to the main part (913 units), providing improved supply chain reliability.

Compliance Certifications: The substitute part 0348240245 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, providing additional regulatory documentation for applications requiring these certifications. The main part does not specify these compliance statuses.

Material Composition: The main part utilizes Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) and Polyester insulation materials, while the substitute employs Polyamide (PA) and Nylon. Both material systems support the identical operating temperature range and are suitable for crimp termination applications.

Moisture Sensitivity: The substitute part carries MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating superior moisture handling characteristics compared to the main part's Not Applicable designation.

Series Designation: The main part belongs to the Spot-On 2.0 201196 series, while the substitute belongs to the Mini50 34824 series. These series designations reflect different product lines but do not affect functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0348240245 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 2011962240?

A: Yes. Both parts are 24-position receptacle housings with 2.00mm pitch, identical mounting configuration, and matching operating temperature specifications. All core electrical and mechanical parameters align, enabling direct functional substitution.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are color (Natural versus Gray), insulation material composition (PBT/Polyester versus PA/Nylon), series designation (Spot-On 2.0 versus Mini50), and compliance certifications (ROHS3 and REACH status on the substitute). These differences do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are the contacts included with these housings?

A: No. Both the main part and substitute are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included in either package.

Q: Does the insulation material difference affect performance?

A: Both insulation materials support the identical -40°C to 105°C operating temperature range and are compatible with crimp termination processes. Material selection should be based on specific application requirements for chemical resistance, mechanical properties, or regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL rating difference?

A: The substitute part carries MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating it can be stored and handled without time-dependent moisture absorption constraints. The main part's Not Applicable designation suggests different moisture handling characteristics. For applications in high-humidity environments or with extended storage periods, the substitute part provides superior moisture management.

Q: Can these parts be intermixed in the same assembly?

A: Yes. Since all electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, these parts can be used interchangeably within the same assembly. However, color differences (Natural versus Gray) may be visually apparent.

Q: What certifications apply to each part?

A: The substitute part 0348240245 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification. Verify specific compliance requirements for your application before final part selection.
