Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF22L-4DEP-7.92C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the EnerBee™ DF22 series
• Connector Type: Plug housing configuration
• Contact Type: Male pin accommodation
• Position Count: 4-position configuration
• Pitch Specification: 0.312" (7.92mm) contact spacing
• Row Configuration: 2-row arrangement
• Mounting Method: Panel mount with snap-in mechanism
• Termination Type: Crimp contact termination
• Fastening Mechanism: Latch holder system
• Material Specification: Polyamide (PA) nylon insulation
• Environmental Rating: -55°C to 85°C operating range
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant status

The DF22-4DEP-7.92C meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the same series, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing only in color (white vs. red) and product status (active vs. obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF22-4DEP-7.92C is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete DF22L-4DEP-7.92C. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the EnerBee™ DF22 series. The substitute part carries active product status with current manufacturing support and availability (808 pcs in stock vs. 1117 pcs for the obsolete variant). Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard handling and storage protocols. The only non-functional difference is housing color (white vs. red), which does not affect electrical performance or mechanical fit in standard applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF22-4DEP-7.92C directly replace DF22L-4DEP-7.92C in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, termination type, and fastening mechanism. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: Does the color difference (red vs. white) affect functionality?

A: No. Color is a cosmetic attribute only and does not impact electrical performance, mechanical fit, or environmental ratings.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both DF22L-4DEP-7.92C and DF22-4DEP-7.92C are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The DF22L-4DEP-7.92C is obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing. The DF22-4DEP-7.92C is active with ongoing production and supply availability, making it the recommended selection for new procurement.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -55°C to 85°C, maintaining identical thermal performance specifications.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The substitute part DF22-4DEP-7.92C is available in bulk packaging. Packaging specifications for the obsolete variant were not provided.

Q: Do these parts require specific contact types?

A: Both housings are designed for crimp termination with male pin contacts. Contacts are not included with the housing and must be sourced separately.
