206DR2 NC032 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Alpha Wire 206DR2 NC032 is a 4-position circular connector plug with male pins and screw termination, designed for industrial applications requiring IP67-rated protection. This connector features a keyed M12-4 shell size with nickel-plated copper alloy construction and gold-plated mating contacts. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing in ongoing industrial deployments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 206DR2 NC032 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: Plug with male pins, 4-position design
• Shell Specification: M12-4 keyed interface for mechanical compatibility
• Termination Method: Screw-based wire attachment
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging in-line orientation
• Environmental Rating: IP67 protection level
• Electrical Specification: 250V rated voltage
• Compliance: ROHS3 certification

The substitute part V1S-G-PG9 (Pepperl+Fuchs, Inc.) satisfies all critical substitution criteria. Both connectors share identical connector type, position count, shell size, mounting method, termination approach, fastening mechanism, orientation, and ingress protection rating. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and operate within compatible voltage and temperature ranges.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The V1S-G-PG9 serves as a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 206DR2 NC032 based on the following engineering criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility: Both connectors employ identical M12-4 keyed shell interfaces with matching mounting and fastening specifications, ensuring direct mechanical interchangeability in existing installations.

Electrical Compatibility: The substitute maintains equivalent voltage rating (250VAC/DC) and operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C), with the substitute's upper temperature limit 5°C lower than the original. This differential is acceptable for most industrial applications within the stated operating envelope.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 certification and share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4020) classifications, ensuring compliance continuity in regulated environments.

Product Status: The substitute part V1S-G-PG9 maintains active product status with confirmed inventory availability (945 pcs), providing supply chain reliability for replacement and new installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the V1S-G-PG9 directly replace the 206DR2 NC032 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces (M12-4 keyed shell), mounting configuration (free hanging in-line), termination method (screw), and environmental rating (IP67). Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is supported.

Q: What are the key differences between these connectors?

A: The primary differences are material composition (shell material and contact finish) and operating temperature upper limit. The V1S-G-PG9 operates to 85°C versus 90°C for the 206DR2 NC032. The substitute provides specified current rating (4A) and cable opening dimensions (6.00mm ~ 8.00mm), which were not specified for the original part.

Q: Are both connectors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 206DR2 NC032 and V1S-G-PG9 maintain ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial applications.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 206DR2 NC032 is supplied in standard packaging, while the V1S-G-PG9 is supplied in bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and handling but does not impact connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Is the 5°C temperature difference significant for substitution?

A: The operating temperature differential (-25°C ~ 85°C for substitute versus -25°C ~ 90°C for original) is acceptable for industrial applications. Verify that your specific application does not require operation above 85°C before substitution.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both connectors?

A: Both connectors share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4020) classifications, maintaining regulatory consistency for export and procurement purposes.
