Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The B6P-VH-B and 1-1123723-6 are functionally equivalent for applications requiring 6-position, 0.156" pitch through-hole headers with solder termination. Both parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The substitute part 1-1123723-6 operates across a wider temperature range (-25°C to 105°C versus -25°C to 85°C) and carries REACH Unaffected status. The primary electrical difference is the current rating: the B6P-VH-B is rated at 10A while the 1-1123723-6 is rated at 7.5A. Selection between these parts depends on application current requirements and temperature operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-1123723-6 substitute for the B6P-VH-B in all applications?

A: The 1-1123723-6 is mechanically and electrically compatible for applications requiring up to 7.5A at 250V. Applications requiring the full 10A rating of the B6P-VH-B require the original part.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors between these parts?

A: Compatibility is determined by matching connector type, contact type, number of positions, mating pitch, mounting method, shrouding style, termination type, contact material, and insulation material. Both parts meet these criteria.

Q: Are there differences in physical dimensions between these parts?

A: The overall contact length differs slightly: B6P-VH-B is 0.575" (14.60mm) while 1-1123723-6 is 0.567" (14.40mm). The insulation height also differs: B6P-VH-B is 0.370" (9.40mm) while 1-1123723-6 is 0.118" (3.00mm).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. The 1-1123723-6 additionally carries REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference between these parts?

A: The B6P-VH-B operates from -25°C to 85°C, while the 1-1123723-6 operates from -25°C to 105°C, providing a 20°C higher upper temperature limit.
