Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four parts listed are active products with current manufacturing status and full compliance certifications. Selection between the 560-002-000-310 and its substitutes should be based on the following factors:

Mercury United Electronics, Inc. Parts (560-002-000-310 and 560-002-000-110): Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and manufactured by the same supplier. The 560-002-000-110 offers identical electrical and mechanical specifications with a white housing variant, providing color differentiation for circuit identification if required.

JAE Electronics Parts (MX36002PQ3 and MX36002PQ4): Both parts feature glass-filled PBT insulation, which provides enhanced mechanical strength compared to standard PBT. The MX36002PQ3 maintains full ROHS3 compliance, while the MX36002PQ4 carries RoHS compliance. Both parts are suitable for applications requiring increased durability in harsh environments.

All parts maintain identical electrical performance, temperature ratings, and waterproof characteristics, ensuring direct functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 560-002-000-310 be directly replaced with 560-002-000-110?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Mercury United Electronics, Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The only difference is housing color (blue versus white). Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What is the difference between the Mercury and JAE Electronics versions?

A: The primary difference is the insulation material composition. Mercury parts use standard PBT, while JAE Electronics parts use glass-filled PBT, which provides enhanced mechanical strength. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. Both manufacturers' parts are ROHS compliant and suitable for the same operating temperature range.

Q: Are the MX36002PQ3 and MX36002PQ4 interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both JAE Electronics parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference lies in RoHS certification level: MX36002PQ3 is ROHS3 compliant, while MX36002PQ4 is RoHS compliant. For applications requiring ROHS3 certification specifically, use MX36002PQ3.

Q: Does housing color affect electrical performance?

A: No. Housing color is a visual identifier only and does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Color selection may be based on circuit identification standards or application requirements.

Q: Can these connectors be used in waterproof applications?

A: Yes. All listed parts include waterproof features and are suitable for applications requiring moisture protection within the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All parts are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing according to the manufacturer's specifications.
