D369-P66-NS0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The D369-P66-NS0 is a 6-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors. This plug housing is designed for free-hanging, in-line applications with friction lock fastening and crimp contact termination. The connector features IP67 environmental sealing and operates across an extended temperature range of -55°C to 175°C, making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications. As an active product with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, the D369-P66-NS0 remains in current production. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when inventory constraints or application-specific requirements necessitate component alternatives within the same functional class.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the D369-P66-NS0 are identified based on strict parametric equivalence within the TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors 369 series. The substitution criteria are established by the following key parameters that must remain constant across all equivalent parts:

• Connector Type: Plug housing
• Number of Positions: 6
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Friction Lock
• Features: IP67 environmental sealing
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 175°C
• Insulation Material: Thermoplastic
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The D369-P66-CP0 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute. This part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters identical to the main part. The only variation is the addition of a C-key feature and an expanded color option (Black and Green versus Black only), which does not affect functional interchangeability in applications where the base 6-position, 2-row plug housing configuration is required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the D369-P66-NS0 and D369-P66-CP0 are active products manufactured by TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors and maintain full ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 rating. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements and inventory availability.

The D369-P66-NS0 is the standard configuration offering a black thermoplastic housing suitable for general industrial and automotive connector applications. Current inventory of 980 pieces supports immediate availability for production requirements.

The D369-P66-CP0 provides an alternative with C-key keying feature and dual-color housing options (Black and Green). This variant is appropriate for applications requiring keyed connector interfaces to prevent incorrect mating or where color-coded connector identification is specified. Current inventory of 852 pieces is available.

Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, operating temperature ranges, environmental sealing ratings, and regulatory compliance status. Selection should be based on whether the C-key feature and color options align with the application's connector interface design requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D369-P66-CP0 be used as a direct replacement for the D369-P66-NS0?

A: The D369-P66-CP0 is a parametric equivalent substitute. Both parts maintain identical 6-position, 2-row plug housing configurations with crimp termination, friction lock fastening, and IP67 sealing. The primary difference is the addition of C-key keying and expanded color options in the CP0 variant. Direct substitution is possible when the application does not require keying prevention or when color-coded identification is beneficial.

Q: What does the C-key designation in the D369-P66-CP0 indicate?

A: The C-key feature provides a keying mechanism that prevents incorrect connector mating by allowing only properly keyed mating connectors to engage. This feature is specified in applications where connector orientation control is critical to circuit integrity or safety.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. Both the D369-P66-NS0 and D369-P66-CP0 are housing-only components. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing according to TE Connectivity Deutsch Connectors specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating?

A: MSL 1 (Moisture Sensitivity Level 1) indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. These connector housings do not require special storage conditions or desiccant packaging, simplifying inventory management and logistics.

Q: Do both parts meet the same environmental and regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the D369-P66-NS0 and D369-P66-CP0 are ROHS3 compliant, feature IP67 environmental sealing, operate across -55°C to 175°C, and carry EAR99 export classification with HTSUS code 8536.69.8000.

Q: What is the difference between the color options?

A: The D369-P66-NS0 is available in black only. The D369-P66-CP0 offers both black and green color options, allowing for color-coded connector identification in multi-connector assemblies or systems requiring visual differentiation.
