Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Identical Specifications):

The parts 3-1241961-2, 6-1241961-2, 7-1241961-2, and 9-1241961-2 are direct functional equivalents to the 6-1241961-3. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical characteristics with variations only in RoHS compliance designation and insulation material polymer composition. Selection among these alternatives is determined by compliance requirements and material specifications for the target application.

Extended Temperature Range Alternatives:

Parts 5-928247-2 and 6-928247-2 provide extended operating temperature capability to 110°C (compared to 105°C for the primary part). These alternatives utilize polyamide (PA) nylon material instead of PA6 or PA66. The 5-928247-2 variant features green color insulation, while 6-928247-2 maintains natural color. These parts are suitable for applications requiring the elevated temperature specification.

Compliance Considerations:

The 6-1241961-3 carries ROHS3 Compliant status. Substitute parts 3-1241961-2 and 6-1241961-2 also maintain ROHS3 Compliant designation. Parts 5-928247-2, 6-928247-2, 7-1241961-2, and 9-1241961-2 carry RoHS Compliant status. Selection should align with specific regulatory requirements for the end application.

Inventory Availability:

Part 5-928247-2 offers the highest inventory availability at 30,121 pieces, followed by 6-928247-2 at 11,099 pieces. The 6-1241961-2 variant provides 4,197 pieces with ROHS3 Compliant status matching the primary part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 6-1241961-2 be used as a direct replacement for 6-1241961-3?

A: Yes. Both parts are 2-position receptacle connectors with 5.00mm pitch, identical mounting type, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening. Both maintain ROHS3 Compliant status and PA6 nylon 6 insulation material. The parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between the 1241961 and 928247 base product numbers?

A: The base product numbers indicate different product families within the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors rectangular connector line. Parts with base number 1241961 utilize PA6 or PA66 nylon insulation material, while parts with base number 928247 utilize PA nylon material. Both families maintain identical connector specifications for 2-position, 5.00mm pitch receptacle housings.

Q: Can the 5-928247-2 green connector be used in applications requiring natural color?

A: The 5-928247-2 features green insulation material, while the primary part and most alternatives feature natural color. Color selection depends on application requirements. If color specification is critical, the 6-928247-2 provides equivalent specifications with natural color insulation.

Q: What is the significance of the ROHS3 Compliant versus RoHS Compliant designation?

A: ROHS3 Compliant indicates compliance with the third iteration of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. RoHS Compliant indicates compliance with the directive without specifying the version. Both designations confirm restriction of hazardous substances. Selection should align with specific regulatory requirements for the target market and application.

Q: Are the extended temperature range parts (5-928247-2 and 6-928247-2) suitable for all applications using the 6-1241961-3?

A: The extended temperature range to 110°C provides additional thermal capability. These parts are suitable for applications operating within the -40°C to 110°C range. Applications limited to -40°C to 105°C operation do not require this extended capability. Material composition differences (PA versus PA6/PA66) should be evaluated for specific environmental and mechanical requirements.

Q: What does "Contacts Not Included" mean in the part specifications?

A: The connector housing is supplied without pre-installed contacts. Contacts must be obtained separately and installed through the crimp termination process. This is standard for receptacle housing components in this connector family.

Q: Can substitute parts be mixed in the same assembly?

A: All substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical form factors and are functionally interchangeable. However, assembly consistency and traceability practices should be evaluated based on specific quality and documentation requirements for the end application.
