Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 5747827-4 be used as a direct replacement for the 747827-4?

A: Yes. The 5747827-4 is the direct equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. It maintains the same 9-position D-Sub plug configuration, 6A current rating, 125V voltage rating, and -55°C ~ 105°C operating temperature range. The primary advantage is that the 5747827-4 is an Active product with RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected certifications.

Q: What are the key differences between the TE Connectivity 5747827-4 and the NorComp 183-009-113R171?

A: Both are 9-position D-Sub plugs with right angle solder termination and identical operating temperature ranges (-55°C ~ 105°C). Key differences include: the NorComp part has a reduced current rating of 5A versus 6A, unspecified voltage rating versus 125V, Nickel Plated shell finish versus Tin Plated, and Flash contact finish thickness versus 30.0µin. The NorComp part also supports Panel Mount in addition to Through Hole mounting.

Q: What are the key differences between the TE Connectivity 5747827-4 and the Mercury United Electronics 625-009-262-032?

A: Both are 9-position D-Sub plugs with right angle solder termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Key differences include: the Mercury part has a reduced current rating of 3A per contact versus 6A, unspecified voltage rating versus 125V, reduced operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 85°C versus -55°C ~ 105°C, Nickel Plated shell finish versus Tin Plated, Copper Alloy contact material versus Brass, and slightly reduced backset spacing of 0.584" versus 0.590". The Mercury part includes Board Lock, Grounding Indents, Mounting Brackets, and Shielded features.

Q: Are the NorComp 183-009-113R171 and 183-009-113R561 interchangeable?

A: Both are 9-position D-Sub plugs from the NorComp 183 series with identical electrical specifications, operating temperature range, and mounting options. The primary difference is that the 183-009-113R561 includes a Female Screwlock feature on the mating side, whereas the 183-009-113R171 does not. Selection depends on whether the mating connector requires screwlock engagement.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: The 5747827-4 is supplied in Tube packaging. The NorComp 183 series parts (183-009-113R171 and 183-009-113R561) are supplied in Tray packaging. The Mercury United Electronics 625 series parts (625-009-262-031, 625-009-262-032, and 625-009-262-042) are supplied in Bulk packaging.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for applications requiring the highest current rating?

A: The 5747827-4 maintains the original 6A current rating of the 747827-4. The NorComp 183 series parts are rated for 5A, and the Mercury United Electronics 625 series parts are rated for 3A per contact. For applications requiring 6A current capacity, the 5747827-4 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Which substitute parts are suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: The 5747827-4 and both NorComp 183 series parts (183-009-113R171 and 183-009-113R561) maintain the original operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 105°C. The Mercury United Electronics 625 series parts have a reduced operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 85°C and are not suitable for applications requiring operation above 85°C.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: The backset spacing differs between part families. The TE Connectivity 747827-4 and 5747827-4, along with the NorComp 183 series parts, have a backset spacing of 0.590" (14.99mm). The Mercury United Electronics 625 series parts have a backset spacing of 0.584" (14.84mm), a difference of 0.006" (0.15mm). This minor difference may affect board layout and mating connector alignment in applications with tight mechanical tolerances.

Q: What is the difference between the three Mercury United Electronics 625 series variants?

A: All three Mercury parts (625-009-262-031, 625-009-262-032, and 625-009-262-042) share identical electrical specifications, current rating (3A per contact), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C), and core features. The primary difference is the flange feature: 625-009-262-031 has an Unthreaded Housing/Shell flange, while 625-009-262-032 and 625-009-262-042 have 4-40 Housing/Shell flanges. Selection depends on the specific mounting requirements of the application.
