Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What defines a valid substitute for the 87133-6?

A: A valid substitute must maintain the following specifications: 20-position receptacle housing with female socket contacts, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 2-row configuration with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing, free-hanging in-line mounting, crimp contact termination, and MSL 1 rating. All listed substitute parts meet these criteria.

Q: Can I use part 953119-2 in applications requiring -65°C operation?

A: No. Part 953119-2 operates within -40°C ~ 100°C range, which does not meet the -65°C lower temperature requirement of the original 87133-6. Use parts 1-87456-6, 1-925367-0, 87977-8, or 65239-010LF for full -65°C compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both certifications indicate compliance with hazardous substance restrictions. ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard. All substitute parts carry either RoHS or ROHS3 compliance. Selection between them depends on customer or regional requirements.

Q: Are color variations functionally equivalent?

A: Yes. Color variations (black, green, brown, blue) are cosmetic and do not affect electrical or mechanical function. Color selection is based on application identification or customer preference.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: Part 0901430020 (Molex C-Grid III 90143) provides the highest inventory level at 11701 units. Part 1-87456-6 (TE Connectivity AMPMODU Mod IV) offers 6441 units with ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Can I substitute the 87133-6 with a part from a different manufacturer?

A: Yes. Molex and Amphenol ICC (FCI) parts listed maintain full parametric equivalence. Cross-manufacturer substitution is valid when all primary matching criteria are met. Verify connector compatibility with mating plug components before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of insulation material differences?

A: Insulation materials vary across substitutes (polyester, polyamide, thermoplastic, PBT, PPO, polyphenylene). All materials are suitable for the specified operating temperature ranges and environmental conditions. Material selection may affect mechanical properties and chemical resistance in specific applications.

Q: Does the 65239-010LF offer advantages over the 87133-6?

A: Part 65239-010LF extends the upper operating temperature to 125°C (versus 105°C) and maintains the full -65°C lower limit. This part is suitable for applications requiring extended thermal performance. Inventory is lower (1092 units) compared to the original part (888 units).

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All listed parts are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately based on application requirements.

Q: What is the REACH status significance for these parts?

A: REACH status indicates regulatory compliance with European chemical substance regulations. Most parts show "Vendor Undefined" or "REACH Unaffected" status. Molex and Amphenol ICC parts specify "REACH Unaffected" or "REACH Affected" status. Verify REACH compliance requirements with your regional regulations before final selection.
