Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 936372-1 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 Row Configuration: 12 positions arranged in 2 rows
• Termination and Fastening Method: Crimp contact termination with latch lock fastening
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging in-line mounting
• Material Composition: Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) insulation
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating

The substitute part 936372-1 maintains complete parametric alignment with these criteria, ensuring direct functional and mechanical interchangeability in applications requiring 12-position rectangular connector plug housings within the Multi-Lock series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 936372-1 and 936196-1 are active products manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. The parts are parametrically equivalent across all specified electrical and mechanical dimensions, including connector type, contact configuration, position count, row arrangement, termination method, fastening mechanism, and insulation material.

The substitute part 936196-1 provides documented operating temperature specifications (-30°C ~ 105°C), whereas the main part 936372-1 does not include this parameter in the provided data. Both parts maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating and are suitable for applications requiring 12-position rectangular connector plug housings with crimp termination and latch lock fastening in free-hanging in-line configurations.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability and lead time requirements, as both parts satisfy identical functional and compliance requirements for Multi-Lock series rectangular connector applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 936196-1 be used as a direct replacement for 936372-1?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametrically equivalent across all critical specifications including connector type, contact configuration, position count, row arrangement, mounting type, termination method, fastening type, insulation material, and regulatory compliance status. The parts are functionally and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by matching the following parameters: connector type (plug), contact type (female socket), number of positions (12), number of rows (2), mounting type (free hanging in-line), contact termination (crimp), fastening type (latch lock), insulation material (PBT), color (natural), and regulatory compliance (RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected). All these parameters are identical between the main part and substitute.

Q: Does the operating temperature specification affect substitution?

A: The substitute part 936196-1 includes documented operating temperature specifications (-30°C ~ 105°C), while the main part 936372-1 does not specify this parameter in the provided data. This does not affect substitution eligibility, as both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical compatibility. Applications requiring specific temperature performance should reference the documented operating temperature range of 936196-1.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. The main part 936372-1 has 667 pieces in stock, while the substitute part 936196-1 has 2400 pieces in stock. Packaging format and handling requirements are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating for both parts?

A: MSL 1 (Moisture Sensitivity Level 1) indicates unlimited shelf life with no special moisture control requirements during storage or handling. Both parts maintain this rating, ensuring consistent handling and storage procedures.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 936372-1 and 936196-1 are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.
