Amphenol ICC 65043-031ELF Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65043-031ELF is a 12-position rectangular connector housing designed for applications requiring reliable receptacle connections at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. This component is part of the Mini-PV™ and Basics+ series and maintains active product status with full RoHS compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in applications where the primary part is unavailable or inventory constraints exist.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Amphenol ICC 65043-031ELF is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 12 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
• Physical Layout: 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
• Termination Method: Crimp contact termination
• Environmental Ratings: Operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 classification

The Molex 0022552121 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters, qualifying as a parametric equivalent. Both parts function identically within the defined parameter set and are interchangeable in applications where these specifications are required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Amphenol ICC 65043-031ELF and Molex 0022552121 are active products with full regulatory compliance. The Amphenol part carries RoHS Compliant status and is REACH Affected. The Molex substitute carries ROHS3 Compliant status and is REACH Unaffected. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: Amphenol 65043-031ELF has 1,084 units in stock; Molex 0022552121 has 2,893 units available
• Packaging Format: Amphenol is supplied in Bag packaging; Molex is supplied in Bulk packaging
• Regulatory Requirements: Verify REACH compliance requirements for your specific application and region
• Series Compatibility: Amphenol Mini-PV™/Basics+ series versus Molex SL 70450 series

Both parts are suitable for direct substitution where the specified electrical and mechanical parameters are the sole selection criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0022552121 be used as a direct replacement for the Amphenol ICC 65043-031ELF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications: 12-position receptacle housings with female socket contacts, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, crimp termination, and -40°C to 105°C operating range. They are parametrically equivalent and interchangeable.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by: connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), position count (12), pitch (0.100"), row configuration (2 rows at 0.100" spacing), mounting type (free hanging in-line), termination method (crimp), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C).

Q: Does packaging format affect compatibility?

A: Packaging format (Bag versus Bulk) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. It impacts only handling, storage, and logistics. Select based on your procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Are there differences in insulation material between these parts?

A: Yes. The Amphenol part uses Polyphenylene Modified insulation, while the Molex part uses Polyester Glass Filled insulation. Both materials meet the specified operating temperature range and environmental requirements. Material selection should be verified against your application's chemical exposure and mechanical stress conditions.

Q: What is the significance of the different REACH statuses?

A: The Amphenol part is REACH Affected, indicating it may contain substances of concern under EU regulations. The Molex part is REACH Unaffected. If your application is subject to REACH compliance requirements, verify the regulatory status applicable to your region and end-use.
