Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between rectangular connector receptacle housings in the Universal MATE-N-LOK series is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Critical Substitution Parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Number of positions (9)
• Number of rows (3)
• Series designation (Universal MATE-N-LOK)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount)
• Contact termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening type (Latch Lock)
• Insulation material (Polyamide PA66, Nylon 6/6)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)
• Color (Natural)

The substitute part 927231-7 maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters, confirming direct substitutability within the connector assembly design. Both parts share the same base product number (927231), indicating they are variants within the same product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 927231-5 and 927231-7 are Active products from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, confirming ongoing manufacturer support and availability. The substitute part 927231-7 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing an updated regulatory certification relative to the RoHS Compliant status of 927231-5. This enhanced compliance status does not restrict substitution; rather, it indicates the substitute part meets current and future regulatory requirements.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

1. Inventory Availability: 927231-7 maintains higher stock levels (6087 units) compared to 927231-5 (1766 units), supporting supply chain continuity.

2. Regulatory Compliance: 927231-7 provides ROHS3 compliance, suitable for applications with stringent environmental and regulatory requirements.

3. Design Compatibility: Identical electrical and mechanical specifications ensure direct substitution without design modification.

Both parts are suitable for panel-mounted 9-position rectangular connector assemblies operating within the -55°C to 125°C temperature range with crimp termination and latch lock fastening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 927231-7 be used as a direct replacement for 927231-5 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 9-position receptacle housings, 3-row configuration, panel mount, crimp termination, latch lock fastening, and identical operating temperature range. No design modification is required.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant status?

A: ROHS3 represents an updated certification standard. The substitute part 927231-7 meets the newer ROHS3 requirements, while 927231-5 carries the earlier RoHS Compliant designation. Both are compliant with environmental regulations; ROHS3 indicates the substitute part satisfies current and anticipated future regulatory standards.

Q: Are the insulation materials identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both 927231-5 and 927231-7 use Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6 as the insulation material, ensuring identical thermal and mechanical properties across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Q: Do these parts include contacts?

A: No. Both 927231-5 and 927231-7 are receptacle housings only. Contacts must be procured separately and installed through crimp termination.

Q: What is the significance of the base product number 927231?

A: The base product number 927231 indicates both parts belong to the same product family within the Universal MATE-N-LOK series. The suffix numbers (-5 and -7) represent variants within this family, maintaining compatibility while potentially offering different packaging, certifications, or manufacturing batches.

Q: Is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating the same for both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly processes.
