62C64-1101EC DIN Receptacle Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 62C64-1101EC is a 96-position DIN receptacle connector manufactured by 3M, designed for panel mount applications with gold-plated female sockets. This connector is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing. The part features IDC termination, feed-through capability, and operates across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Due to its obsolete status, active alternative components from current manufacturers are necessary for ongoing production and field service applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 62C64-1101EC is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters: 96-position configuration, 64 positions loaded, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 3-row arrangement, Style C geometry, female socket receptacle type, IDC termination, and gold contact finish. The identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical specifications. However, mounting type represents a key differentiator: the 62C64-1101EC is panel mount, while one substitute (746603-4) is free hanging (in-line). The second substitute (09032646828) maintains panel mount configuration. Both substitutes are active products with current manufacturer support, addressing the obsolescence status of the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications requiring direct replacement of the 62C64-1101EC with panel mount configuration, the HARTING 09032646828 is the primary substitute. This part maintains identical mounting type, electrical configuration, and termination method while offering active product status and ROHS3 compliance.

The TE Connectivity 746603-4 serves as an alternative for applications where free hanging (in-line) mounting is acceptable or preferred. This part provides equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility with the 96-position, 64-loaded configuration but requires mechanical redesign to accommodate the different mounting approach.

Both substitutes are supported by active manufacturers with documented compliance certifications (UL94 V-0, ROHS3, REACH Unaffected), ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment for new designs and field service applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 09032646828 directly replace the 62C64-1101EC in existing assemblies?

A: Yes, the 09032646828 maintains identical mounting type (panel mount), position count (96 total, 64 loaded), pitch (0.100"), row configuration (3), style (C), termination (IDC), and contact finish (gold). Physical and electrical compatibility is established for direct substitution without mechanical modification.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two substitute parts?

A: The HARTING 09032646828 is panel mount, matching the original 62C64-1101EC configuration. The TE Connectivity 746603-4 is free hanging (in-line), requiring mechanical redesign of the mounting interface. Both maintain identical electrical specifications and position loading.

Q: Are both substitute parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Both the 09032646828 and 746603-4 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The original 62C64-1101EC compliance status is not fully specified in available documentation.

Q: What is the significance of "64 positions loaded" in a 96-position connector?

A: The connector has 96 total contact positions available, but only 64 are populated with contacts. This configuration is standard for DIN 41612 and Eurosocket series connectors and must be matched in substitute parts to ensure proper mating and signal integrity.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably with different DIN standards?

A: No. The 62C64-1101EC (Eurosocket series) and the 09032646828 (DIN 41612 series) are distinct standards. While they share identical electrical and mechanical parameters, they are not mechanically interchangeable with connectors from other DIN standards or pitch configurations.

Q: What packaging options are available for these parts?

A: The 62C64-1101EC is supplied in standard packaging (not specified). The 09032646828 is available in bulk packaging. The 746603-4 is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging selection should align with production volume and inventory management requirements.
