Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF22-5S-7.92C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Female Socket)
• Number of positions (5)
• Pitch specification (0.312" / 7.92mm)
• Number of rows (1)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging / In-Line)
• Contact termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening type (Latch Lock)
• Color (White)
• Polarizing key feature

The substitute part DF22-5S-7.92C(28) maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all these parameters, differing only in packaging configuration and product status classification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF22-5S-7.92C(28) is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently using the obsolete DF22-5S-7.92C. The substitute part maintains complete electrical and mechanical compatibility across all connector specifications.

Key selection considerations:

• The substitute part carries Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete main part number.
• DF22-5S-7.92C(28) is ROHS3 compliant, providing regulatory advantage for applications subject to RoHS requirements. The original part is RoHS non-compliant.
• Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99.
• Inventory availability is adequate for both part numbers, with the substitute offering slightly higher stock levels (981 Pcs vs. 876 Pcs).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF22-5S-7.92C(28) be used as a direct replacement for DF22-5S-7.92C?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, and fastening mechanism. The designation difference reflects packaging and product status classification only.

Q: What does the "(28)" designation in DF22-5S-7.92C(28) indicate?

A: The "(28)" suffix indicates the packaging configuration (Bulk packaging) and product status classification. The core connector specifications remain unchanged from the base part number.

Q: Are there compatibility concerns when transitioning from the obsolete to the active part number?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. The substitute part maintains identical form, fit, and function. The transition from RoHS non-compliant to ROHS3 compliant status represents an improvement for regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: The substitute part DF22-5S-7.92C(28) operates across -55°C to 85°C. Operating temperature specifications for the original part were not provided in the technical documentation.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. Both the main part and substitute are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and crimped into the housing.

Q: What termination method is required for these connectors?

A: Both parts require crimp termination. Contacts are installed using standard crimp tooling compatible with the 0.312" (7.92mm) pitch specification.
