Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 2-166095-1 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional equivalence:

Primary Matching Criteria:

• Number of Positions: 48
• Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Number of Rows: 3
• Style: F
• Connector Type: Male Pins
• Right Angle Configuration
• Solder Termination
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (main part) to Through Hole (substitute parts) represents a design-level substitution where the connector interface remains compatible but board integration method differs
• Contact Finish: Gold (main part) to Gold-Palladium (substitute parts) maintains equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance
• Connector Style: Plug (main part) to Header (substitute parts) indicates mating interface compatibility within DIN 41612 standard specifications

Substitute parts 09061482901, 09061482901222, 09061486901222, and 09061487901 are HARTING DIN 41612 series headers that maintain the 48-position, 3-row, 0.200" pitch configuration with right-angle orientation. These parts are functionally equivalent for applications where through-hole mounting is acceptable.

Parts 09185105322 and 09185105324 are rectangular connectors from the HARTING SEK series with significantly different position count (10 positions) and pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), representing non-equivalent alternatives and are not suitable direct substitutes for the 2-166095-1.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute Candidates:

The HARTING parts 09061482901 and 09061487901 provide the closest functional equivalence to the 2-166095-1, maintaining the 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch specification. Both parts are active products with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 classification. The primary design consideration is the transition from surface mount to through-hole mounting technology.

Part 09061482901 is designated as a 48-position power connector header with unspecified contact finish and operating temperature range. Part 09061487901 is similarly configured as a 48-position power connector header with through-hole mounting and unspecified contact finish and operating temperature parameters.

Secondary Substitute Candidates:

Parts 09061482901222 and 09061486901222 maintain 48-position configuration and right-angle orientation but feature a reduced pitch of 0.100" (2.54mm) compared to the main part's 0.200" (5.08mm) specification. These parts include specified operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), gold-palladium contact finish, and current rating (15A). The pitch difference represents a significant geometric variation requiring board layout redesign and is not recommended for direct substitution without design review.

Non-Equivalent Parts:

Parts 09185105322 and 09185105324 are rectangular connectors with 10-position configuration and 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, representing fundamentally different connector architectures unsuitable for substitution with the 48-position DIN backplane connector.

Compliance Status:

All substitute candidates maintain active product status, UL94 V-0 flammability compliance, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. HARTING parts carry ROHS3 compliance designation, exceeding the RoHS compliance requirement of the main part. REACH status is listed as REACH Unaffected for all HARTING substitutes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-166095-1 surface mount connector be directly replaced with a through-hole HARTING header?

A: Functional replacement is possible when the application design accommodates through-hole mounting technology. The electrical interface, position count, pitch, and row configuration remain equivalent. Board layout and assembly process modifications are required.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch difference between 0.200" (5.08mm) and 0.100" (2.54mm)?

A: Pitch defines the center-to-center spacing between adjacent contact positions. A 0.100" pitch represents half the spacing of the 0.200" pitch specification. This geometric difference requires complete board redesign and is not suitable for direct substitution without engineering review.

Q: Are gold and gold-palladium contact finishes electrically equivalent?

A: Both finishes provide equivalent electrical performance and corrosion resistance for the specified operating temperature range. Gold-palladium is an acceptable alternative to pure gold for contact finish applications in this connector category.

Q: Does the transition from plug to header connector affect mating compatibility?

A: The plug connector (2-166095-1) mates with a receptacle connector. A header connector (substitute parts) mates with a cable or wire assembly. These represent different mating interface architectures and require compatible mating components.

Q: What does the "Power" designation in part descriptions indicate?

A: The "Power" designation in HARTING part descriptions (09061482901, 09061487901, 09061486951) indicates these connectors are configured for power distribution applications within the DIN 41612 standard. This designation does not affect electrical equivalence for standard signal or power applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: No. Parts 09061482901 and 09061487901 do not specify operating temperature range in the provided data. Parts 09061482901222 and 09061486901222 specify -55°C ~ 125°C, matching the main part specification. Operating temperature confirmation is required before selection.

Q: What is the difference between Level/Class 1, 2, and 3 designations?

A: The Level/Class designation is provided in the input data but does not establish substitution criteria. The main part specifies Level/Class 1. Substitute parts specify Level/Class 1, 2, or 3. These classifications relate to DIN 41612 standard compliance levels and do not prevent functional substitution.

Q: Can parts 09185105322 and 09185105324 substitute for the 2-166095-1?

A: No. These rectangular connectors feature 10-position configuration and 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, representing fundamentally different connector architectures. They are not suitable substitutes for the 48-position DIN backplane connector.

Q: What inventory levels are available for substitute parts?

A: Current inventory for substitute parts is as follows: 09061482901 (1136 pcs), 09061482901222 (691 pcs), 09061486901222 (1193 pcs), 09061487901 (839 pcs). The main part 2-166095-1 has 1088 pcs in stock.
