Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 520910-1 connector is based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Terminal Type: Quick Connect, Disconnect
• Gender: Female, Receptacle
• Terminal Size: 0.250" (6.35mm)
• Number of Positions: 2
• Stacking Direction: Perpendicular
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Color: Black

Environmental and Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Material: Nylon or Polyamide (PA)

The substitute part 926522-1 maintains full compatibility across all specified parameters. The primary distinction is product status: 926522-1 is active and available, whereas 520910-1 is obsolete. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and belong to the Mark I series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 926522-1 connector is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 520910-1. Selection of 926522-1 is based on the following engineering criteria:

Compliance and Regulatory Status: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), ensuring compatibility with current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Product Availability: The 926522-1 is classified as active with 918 pieces in stock, providing reliable supply chain access. The 520910-1 is obsolete and should not be specified for new designs.

Functional Equivalence: All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, including terminal type, gender, size, position count, mounting configuration, and stacking direction. The material specification (Polyamide/Nylon) is functionally equivalent.

Series Continuity: Both parts belong to the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Mark I series, maintaining design consistency and interchangeability within existing assemblies.

For new designs and procurement, specify 926522-1. For field replacements of existing 520910-1 installations, 926522-1 provides direct functional substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 926522-1 be used as a direct replacement for 520910-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 926522-1 is functionally equivalent to 520910-1 across all critical parameters: terminal type, gender, size, position count, mounting type, and stacking direction. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with identical moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the primary difference between 520910-1 and 926522-1?

A: The primary difference is product status. The 520910-1 is obsolete, while 926522-1 is active and currently available. The 926522-1 is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the 520910-1 packaging specification is not defined.

Q: Are there any material compatibility concerns when substituting 926522-1 for 520910-1?

A: No. Both parts use nylon or polyamide (PA) material, which are functionally equivalent for this connector application. The material composition does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in quick connect/disconnect terminal housings.

Q: Does the packaging difference between the two parts affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging (bulk for 926522-1 versus unspecified for 520910-1) does not affect the functional performance or mechanical compatibility of the connector housing itself. Packaging differences relate only to order quantity and logistics considerations.

Q: Are both parts suitable for 0.250" (6.35mm) quick connect applications?

A: Yes. Both 520910-1 and 926522-1 are designed for use with 0.250" (6.35mm) quick connect and disconnect terminals. The terminal size, gender, and connection type are identical.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to 926522-1?

A: The 926522-1 is ROHS3 compliant and carries an MSL rating of 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), matching the compliance profile of 520910-1. Both parts are suitable for applications requiring current environmental and regulatory compliance.
