Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 8-2232264-3 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: Receptacle
• Number of Positions: 6
• Pitch: 0.236" (6.00mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Row Spacing: 0.319" (8.10mm)
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount, Snap-In
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Lock
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Insulation Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon, Glass Filled
• Series: Power Triple Lock, Glow Wire
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitute part differs only in housing color, which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Both parts share the same base product number (2232264) and are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 8-2232264-3 and 5-2232264-3 electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications including connector type, number of positions, pitch, row spacing, contact termination method, and operating temperature range. They are electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the only difference between these two parts?

A: The housing color differs. The 8-2232264-3 has an Orange housing, while the 5-2232264-3 has a Gray housing. All other specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use the 5-2232264-3 as a direct replacement for the 8-2232264-3 in my design?

A: Yes, provided that housing color is not a functional or identification requirement in your application. The parts are mechanically and electrically equivalent.

Q: Do both parts require the same contact specifications?

A: Yes. Both parts are receptacle housings designed for crimp-terminated tab contacts. Contact specifications and compatibility are identical between the two parts.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 8-2232264-3 and 5-2232264-3 are RoHS Compliant and feature Glow Wire compliance.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

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

Q: Do these parts include contacts?

A: No. Both the 8-2232264-3 and 5-2232264-3 are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing.

Q: What mounting options are available?

A: Both parts support Panel Mount and Snap-In mounting types with Latch Lock fastening.
