Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The DF60A-2S-10.16C qualifies as a direct substitute for the DF60-2S-10.16C based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical connector type (Receptacle) and contact type (Female Socket)
• Matching number of positions (2) and pitch specification (0.400" / 10.16mm)
• Same mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line) and termination method (Crimp)
• Identical fastening type (Latch Lock) and color (Black)
• Equivalent moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited)
• Same series family (EnerBee™ DF60)

The primary distinction is product status: DF60A-2S-10.16C is active and currently in stock, whereas DF60-2S-10.16C is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The DF60A-2S-10.16C is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete DF60-2S-10.16C. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical connector parameters. The substitute part offers the additional advantage of active product status with confirmed current availability.

The DF60A-2S-10.16C provides documented compliance certifications including ROHS3 and REACH status, along with specified operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C) and insulation material composition (PBT, Glass Filled). These specifications support long-term supply chain reliability and regulatory compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF60A-2S-10.16C directly replace DF60-2S-10.16C in existing assemblies?
