Engineering Selection Recommendations

The substitute part 1-207441-0 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete 207441-3. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The main part 207441-3 carries an obsolete designation, indicating discontinued production and limited long-term availability. The substitute part 1-207441-0 maintains active product status, ensuring continued procurement capability and supply chain reliability.

Compliance and Certifications: The substitute part 1-207441-0 is ROHS3 Compliant, providing enhanced regulatory alignment for applications subject to Restriction of Hazardous Substances directives. The main part 207441-3 lists RoHS status as not applicable, which may present compliance challenges in regulated markets.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters (7.5A current rating, 600V voltage rating), mechanical specifications (9-position, 5.00mm pitch, through-hole mounting), and material properties (Brass contacts with Gold/Tin finishes, UL94 V-0 insulation) are identical between both parts.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in Tray packaging, which is standard for active production components. This packaging format is suitable for automated assembly processes and high-volume manufacturing environments.

For new designs and ongoing procurement, the substitute part 1-207441-0 is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems currently using 207441-3, direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible without design modification.
