Amphenol ICC 65846-011LF Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65846-011LF is a 16-position rectangular connector housing in the Mini-PV™ Basics+ series. This receptacle housing accommodates female socket contacts with a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch in a 2-row configuration. The part is actively produced and widely used in applications requiring standard pitch rectangular connectors with polarizing key features. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required due to inventory constraints, packaging preferences, or supply chain considerations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 65846-011LF are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following parameters determine substitution eligibility:

Connector type (Receptacle)
Contact type (Female Socket)
Number of positions (16)
Pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Number of rows (2)
Row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
Contact termination (Crimp)
Color (Black)
Polarizing key feature presence
Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C)

All identified substitutes match these core parameters. Variations in packaging format (Bag vs. Bulk), insulation material composition, and REACH compliance status do not affect functional interchangeability within the specified parameter set.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All identified substitute parts maintain active product status and meet applicable regulatory compliance requirements. Selection between the main part and substitutes should be based on the following factors:

69176-016LF (MFR Recommended Substitute): Amphenol ICC manufacturer designation. Bulk packaging format. RoHS Compliant status. Highest inventory availability (352,522 pcs). Recommended when bulk quantities are required and packaging format is not a constraint.

65846-011ELF (Parametric Equivalent): Amphenol ICC manufacturer designation. Bag packaging format matching the main part. RoHS Compliant status. Lower inventory (794 pcs). Recommended when bag packaging is specified and supply from the primary part number is unavailable.

0022552162 (Parametric Equivalent): Molex manufacturer. Bulk packaging format. ROHS3 Compliant status. Moderate inventory availability (2,737 pcs). Recommended when cross-manufacturer substitution is acceptable and bulk packaging is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 69176-016LF be used as a direct replacement for 65846-011LF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical parameters: 16-position receptacle housing, 0.100" pitch, 2-row configuration, female socket contacts, crimp termination, polarizing key, and -40°C to 105°C operating range. The primary difference is packaging format (Bulk vs. Bag) and inventory availability.

Q: What is the difference between 65846-011ELF and 65846-011LF?

A: Both parts are Amphenol ICC products with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The difference is REACH compliance status: 65846-011LF is REACH Affected, while 65846-011ELF is REACH Unaffected. Packaging format (Bag) is identical for both.

Q: Is the Molex 0022552162 compatible with the Amphenol ICC 65846-011LF?

A: Yes. The Molex 0022552162 meets all specified electrical and mechanical parameters. It is a cross-manufacturer equivalent with identical pitch, position count, row configuration, contact type, and operating temperature range. The insulation material differs (Polyester, Glass Filled vs. Polyphenylene, Modified), but this does not affect functional interchangeability within the specified parameter set.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Bag and Bulk packaging formats do not affect connector performance. Selection between packaging formats is based on inventory management, order quantity requirements, and supply chain logistics.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All listed parts are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with the housing purchase.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to these parts?

A: All parts are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant. The main part (65846-011LF) and 69176-016LF are REACH Affected. The 65846-011ELF is REACH Unaffected. The Molex 0022552162 is REACH Unaffected. Compliance requirements should be verified against specific application and regional regulations.
