Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7-2232264-4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 8
• Pitch: 0.236" (6.00mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Row Spacing: 0.319" (8.10mm)
• Connector Type: Receptacle
• Contact Type: Tab
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Snap-In
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Series: Power Triple Lock, Glow Wire
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon, Glass Filled
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Features: Glow Wire Compliant
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• MSL: 1 (Unlimited)

Variable Parameters (Non-Critical for Substitution):

• Color (Green vs. Gray)
• Packaging quantity
• Inventory availability

The substitute part 5-2232264-4 maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the main part number across all mandatory parameters. The only difference is the housing color, which does not affect functional performance or electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 7-2232264-4 and 5-2232264-4 are active production parts manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all functional parameters.

Selection between these two part numbers should be based on the following criteria:

Primary Selection (7-2232264-4 - Green): Use when green housing color is specified in design documentation or when existing inventory of green housings is available for system consistency.

Alternative Selection (5-2232264-4 - Gray): Use when gray housing color is acceptable or preferred, or when gray housing inventory availability is superior. The 5-2232264-4 currently maintains higher inventory levels (1415 units versus 645 units).

Both parts satisfy identical functional requirements for 8-position, 6.00mm pitch rectangular connector applications with panel mount snap-in configuration. The choice between green and gray housing does not affect electrical performance, thermal characteristics, or compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 7-2232264-4 and 5-2232264-4 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically identical. They share the same 8-position configuration, 6.00mm pitch, 2-row layout, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening. Operating temperature ranges, insulation materials, and electrical performance characteristics are identical.

Q: What is the only difference between these two part numbers?

A: The housing color. The 7-2232264-4 features green insulation material, while the 5-2232264-4 features gray insulation material. All other specifications, including mechanical dimensions, electrical ratings, and compliance certifications, are identical.

Q: Can I use the gray housing (5-2232264-4) in place of the green housing (7-2232264-4) in my application?

A: Yes, provided that housing color is not a specified requirement in your design documentation or system assembly procedures. The gray housing maintains full mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Q: Do both parts require the same contact pins?

A: Yes. Both receptacle housings accept identical crimp-terminated tab contacts. Contacts are not included with either housing and must be sourced separately.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 7-2232264-4 and 5-2232264-4 are RoHS compliant and carry identical compliance certifications.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for both parts?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Can these connectors be used in the same panel mount application?

A: Yes. Both parts feature identical panel mount and snap-in mounting configurations. They share the same mechanical footprint and mounting requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.
