Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain Active product status and are compliant with applicable regulatory requirements. Selection among equivalent parts should be based on the following factors:

RoHS Compliance Considerations: The 3-969484-6 and 9-1241961-8 carry RoHS Compliant certification, while 1955422-6 and 5-969484-7 carry ROHS3 Compliant certification. Both certifications satisfy RoHS Directive requirements; ROHS3 represents the current revision standard. Applications requiring specific RoHS revision compliance should reference procurement specifications.

Operating Temperature Range: The 3-969484-6 does not specify an operating temperature range. Substitute parts 1955422-6 and 9-1241961-8 specify -40°C to 105°C operation, while 928247-3 specifies -40°C to 110°C operation. Applications requiring operation within defined temperature extremes should select parts with published temperature specifications that encompass the required range.

Color Specification: The 3-969484-6 is available in Natural color. The substitute part 928247-3 is available in Yellow color. Color selection should align with application requirements or industry standards for connector identification.

Inventory Availability: All substitute parts are available in new original condition. The 928247-3 variant maintains the highest inventory level at 59,665 pieces, while the 5-969484-7 maintains 1,507 pieces. Procurement decisions may consider inventory depth for supply chain continuity.

Moisture Sensitivity Level: The 3-969484-6, 1955422-6, 9-1241961-8, and 928247-3 all carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The 5-969484-7 carries MSL Not Applicable classification. Both classifications are compatible with standard handling and storage procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1955422-6 be used as a direct replacement for the 3-969484-6?

A: Yes. The 1955422-6 maintains all core parametric specifications including 3-position configuration, 5.00mm pitch, female socket contact type, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening. The 1955422-6 provides an extended operating temperature specification of -40°C to 105°C and carries ROHS3 Compliant certification.

Q: What is the difference between the 5-969484-7 and the 3-969484-6?

A: Both parts share identical core specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and termination method. The 5-969484-7 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification and lists MSL as Not Applicable, whereas the 3-969484-6 carries RoHS Compliant certification and MSL 1 (Unlimited). The 5-969484-7 does not specify an operating temperature range.

Q: Is the 928247-3 compatible with applications designed for the 3-969484-6?

A: The 928247-3 maintains all core mechanical and electrical parameters required for compatibility. The primary distinction is color: the 928247-3 is Yellow while the 3-969484-6 is Natural. The 928247-3 also specifies an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C. Color compatibility should be verified against application requirements or industry standards.

Q: What does the operating temperature specification mean for part selection?

A: Operating temperature specification defines the range within which the connector maintains its electrical and mechanical performance. The 3-969484-6 does not specify a temperature range. Substitute parts with published temperature ranges (1955422-6, 9-1241961-8, and 928247-3) should be selected when applications require operation within defined temperature extremes. Applications without specific temperature requirements can use any listed substitute.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry either RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant certification. Both certifications satisfy RoHS Directive requirements. ROHS3 represents the current revision of the RoHS Compliance standard.

Q: What is the significance of MSL classification for these connectors?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) classification indicates moisture handling and storage requirements. MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions and permits standard handling and storage procedures. MSL Not Applicable indicates the part does not require moisture sensitivity classification. Both classifications are compatible with standard component handling practices.

Q: Can I substitute the 9-1241961-8 for the 3-969484-6 in a production assembly?

A: Yes. The 9-1241961-8 maintains all core parametric specifications and is Active product status. The 9-1241961-8 specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C and carries RoHS Compliant certification. Substitution is mechanically and electrically compatible.

Q: What inventory considerations should influence part selection?

A: All substitute parts are available in new original condition. The 928247-3 maintains significantly higher inventory (59,665 pieces) compared to other options. For applications with high-volume or long-term procurement requirements, higher inventory availability may support supply chain continuity.
