TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors 776487-2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors 776487-2 is a 4-position rectangular connector plug housing from the AMPSEAL 16 series. This component is classified as an active product and serves as a housing for female socket contacts in applications requiring crimp termination and latch lock fastening. The connector operates across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is designed for free-hanging, in-line mounting configurations.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent rectangular connector housings share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including pitch, number of positions, row configuration, contact type, and operating parameters. Equivalent alternatives ensure design flexibility and supply chain continuity while maintaining full functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 776487-2 are identified based on strict parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic is based on the following key parameters that must remain identical:

• Connector Type and Contact Configuration: Plug housing with female socket contacts
• Position Count and Pitch: 4 positions at 0.177" (4.50mm) pitch
• Row Configuration: 2 rows with 0.209" (5.30mm) row spacing
• Termination and Fastening: Crimp contact termination with latch lock fastening
• Material and Environmental Ratings: Thermoplastic glass-filled insulation, -40°C to 125°C operating range
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, MSL 1 rating

Parts 776524-1 and 776524-3 meet all these criteria and are therefore classified as parametric equivalents. Both substitute parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors within the same AMPSEAL 16 series and maintain identical mechanical and electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—776487-2, 776524-1, and 776524-3—are active products manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors and carry identical compliance certifications. Each part is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and rated at MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), indicating suitability for standard industrial storage and handling conditions.

The substitute parts 776524-1 and 776524-3 are direct functional equivalents to the main part 776487-2. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability and lead time considerations. Part 776524-1 maintains higher stock levels (19,685 pieces) compared to 776487-2 (887 pieces) and 776524-3 (1,439 pieces), which may influence procurement decisions in time-sensitive applications.

All three parts are suitable for applications requiring 4-position rectangular connector housings with female socket contacts, crimp termination, and latch lock fastening within the AMPSEAL 16 series specification envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are parts 776524-1 and 776524-3 fully compatible with 776487-2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, row spacing, termination method, and fastening mechanism. No design modifications are required for direct substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the different part numbers (776487-2 versus 776524-1 and 776524-3)?

A: The different part numbers reflect different base product numbers (776487 versus 776524) assigned by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. However, the suffix designations and all parametric specifications remain equivalent across these parts within the AMPSEAL 16 series.

Q: Can these connector housings be used interchangeably in the same assembly?

A: Yes. All three parts are plug housings with identical 4-position, 2-row configurations, pitch specifications, and mounting characteristics. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What does the note "Contacts Not Included" mean for these parts?

A: These parts are connector housings only. Female socket contacts must be procured separately and crimped into the housing according to TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors specifications and assembly procedures.

Q: Are there any differences in operating temperature ranges between these parts?

A: No. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, ensuring consistent thermal performance across substitute selections.

Q: What is the packaging format for these connector housings?

A: All three parts are supplied in tube packaging, which is standard for rectangular connector housings in this category.

Q: Do these parts require any special handling or storage conditions?

A: All three parts carry an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard industrial storage and handling practices are sufficient.
