Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7-2232265-7 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Plug
• Number of Positions: 5
• Pitch: 0.236" (6.00mm)
• Contact Type: Female Blade Socket
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA6), Nylon 6
• Series: Power Triple Lock, Glow Wire
• RoHS Compliance: Required

Variable Parameters Permitting Substitution:

• Housing Color
• Operating Temperature Range (within acceptable limits for application)

The substitute part 5-2232265-7 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all mandatory parameters, differing only in housing color (Gray versus Green) and maximum operating temperature rating (105°C versus 140°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (7-2232265-7): The 7-2232265-7 is the primary specification when applications require the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 140°C. This part maintains active product status with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance. Selection of this part is appropriate for high-temperature industrial applications and environments where thermal extremes are encountered.

Substitute Part Selection (5-2232265-7): The 5-2232265-7 serves as a functional substitute when housing color differentiation is required for circuit board identification or assembly workflow purposes, provided the application operating temperature does not exceed 105°C. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical characteristics, connector geometry, and compliance certifications. The substitute part maintains active product status and RoHS compliance. Selection of the substitute is appropriate for standard-temperature applications where the reduced maximum operating temperature does not present a constraint.

Compliance Considerations: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating. No additional environmental or regulatory constraints differentiate the parts. Both are actively manufactured and available in bulk packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5-2232265-7 be used in place of the 7-2232265-7 in all applications?

A: The 5-2232265-7 is functionally equivalent for applications where the maximum operating temperature does not exceed 105°C. The 7-2232265-7 supports operation to 140°C. If your application requires sustained operation above 105°C, the 7-2232265-7 is the required part. For standard-temperature environments, both parts are interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint.

Q: What is the significance of the housing color difference between these parts?

A: The housing color difference (Green for 7-2232265-7 versus Gray for 5-2232265-7) is a visual identifier only and does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Color selection is typically driven by assembly workflow requirements, circuit board identification schemes, or customer specifications. The connector interface, contact configuration, and termination method are identical.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. Both the 7-2232265-7 and 5-2232265-7 are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately. Ensure that replacement contacts are specified for crimp termination and are compatible with the female blade socket configuration.

Q: What does the base product number 2232265 represent?

A: The base product number 2232265 identifies the core connector design family. The prefix digits (7 or 5) and suffix digits (-7) distinguish specific variants within this family, including housing color and performance characteristics. Both parts share the same base design, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 7-2232265-7 and 5-2232265-7 are RoHS compliant and carry MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance. Both parts are suitable for applications requiring environmental compliance certification.

Q: What is the pitch specification and why is it important?

A: The pitch specification of 0.236" (6.00mm) defines the center-to-center distance between adjacent contact positions. This specification is identical for both parts and ensures that mating connectors and contact arrangements are geometrically compatible. Pitch is a critical parameter for connector interchangeability.

Q: Can these connectors be used in high-temperature applications?

A: The 7-2232265-7 supports continuous operation from -55°C to 140°C and is suitable for high-temperature applications. The 5-2232265-7 supports operation from -55°C to 105°C. Selection depends on your specific thermal requirements. For applications exceeding 105°C, the 7-2232265-7 is required.
