Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 6-2232264-5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (10)
• Contact pitch (0.236" / 6.00mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows)
• Row spacing (0.319" / 8.10mm)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount, Snap-In)
• Contact termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening mechanism (Latch Lock)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C)
• Insulation material composition (Polyamide, Nylon, Glass Filled)

Allowable Variation: Color variation is permitted as a substitution parameter, provided all other electrical, mechanical, and thermal specifications remain identical. The substitute part 5-2232264-5 differs only in housing color (Gray versus Brown) while maintaining full functional and dimensional equivalence.

Both parts share the same base product number (2232264), series designation (Power Triple Lock, Glow Wire), and compliance certifications, confirming their interchangeability within the same connector system.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 6-2232264-5 and 5-2232264-5 are Active products manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and carry identical RoHS compliance and MSL ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

Inventory Availability: The 5-2232264-5 (Gray) has 1276 units in stock compared to 1035 units for the 6-2232264-5 (Brown), providing greater availability for high-volume requirements.

Color Specification: If the application design specifies Brown housing, the 6-2232264-5 is the required selection. If the application design specifies Gray housing or permits color flexibility, the 5-2232264-5 is an equivalent alternative.

Compliance and Certification: Both parts maintain identical RoHS compliance status and Glow Wire certification, ensuring equivalent performance in regulated applications and high-temperature environments.

Functional Interchangeability: The parts are fully interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Both accommodate 10-position crimp contacts with identical pitch, row spacing, and mounting characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5-2232264-5 (Gray) be used as a direct replacement for the 6-2232264-5 (Brown)?

A: Yes, the 5-2232264-5 is a direct functional equivalent. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, contact pitch, row configuration, mounting type, and operating temperature range. The only difference is housing color. Substitution is valid unless the application design explicitly requires Brown color.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between the Brown and Gray versions?

A: No. Both versions are manufactured from the same insulation material (Polyamide, Nylon, Glass Filled) and maintain identical electrical properties, thermal ratings, and contact termination specifications.

Q: Do both parts support the same contact types and crimp termination methods?

A: Yes. Both the 6-2232264-5 and 5-2232264-5 are receptacle housings designed for tab-type contacts with crimp termination. They are compatible with the same contact specifications and crimping equipment.

Q: What is the significance of the base product number 2232264?

A: The base product number indicates that both parts belong to the same connector family and series (Power Triple Lock, Glow Wire). The prefix digits (5 or 6) differentiate the color variant while maintaining full compatibility within the system.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant and suitable for regulated applications?

A: Yes. Both the 6-2232264-5 and 5-2232264-5 carry RoHS Compliant status and Glow Wire certification, making them suitable for applications requiring environmental and safety compliance.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these connectors?

A: MSL 1 indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level, meaning these parts have unlimited shelf life and do not require special moisture-controlled storage or handling procedures.

Q: Can these housings be used in both panel mount and snap-in applications?

A: Yes. Both parts support dual mounting configurations: Panel Mount and Snap-In, providing installation flexibility depending on the application requirements.

Q: Are contacts included with these housing parts?

A: No. Both the 6-2232264-5 and 5-2232264-5 are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing according to TE Connectivity specifications.
