Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete 520935-6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Terminal Type: Quick Connect, Disconnect
• Terminal Size: 0.250" (6.35mm)
• Number of Positions: 2
• Gender: Female, Receptacle

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Series: Faston
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Stacking Direction: Side to Side
• Material: Nylon
• Color: Yellow

Regulatory & Environmental Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as direct functional equivalents. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is product status and packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The part 1-520935-6 is the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 520935-6. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the Faston series for 0.250" (6.35mm) Quick Connect/Disconnect applications. The substitute part maintains full compliance with ROHS3 regulations and carries the same MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Selection of 1-520935-6 is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications requiring the 2-position female receptacle housing in yellow. The active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The difference in packaging (Bulk versus standard) does not affect functional compatibility and reflects current manufacturing and distribution practices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-520935-6 be used as a direct replacement for 520935-6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all critical parameters including terminal type, size, position count, gender, material, and mounting configuration. The substitute is the active production equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The main part 520935-6 uses standard packaging, while 1-520935-6 is supplied in bulk packaging. This distinction affects order quantities and logistics but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both 520935-6 and 1-520935-6 are ROHS3 compliant and carry an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions.

Q: Does the color specification affect substitution compatibility?

A: Color is a critical parameter for this connector series. Both parts are specified in yellow. Substitution with connectors of different colors would not be equivalent.

Q: What does "Contacts Not Included" mean for this housing?

A: This housing is supplied without pre-installed contacts. Contacts must be sourced separately and installed into the housing for complete connector assembly.

Q: Is the Faston series designation important for substitution?

A: Yes. The Faston series designation indicates the specific quick connect/disconnect terminal interface standard. Substitutes must remain within the same series to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
