Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the DF62-7EP-2.2C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Number of positions: 7
• Pitch specification: 0.087" (2.20mm)
• Number of rows: 3
• Row spacing: 0.079" (2.00mm)
• Connector type: Plug
• Contact type: Male Pin
• Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact termination: Crimp
• Fastening type: Latch Holder
• Insulation material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Operating temperature range: -35°C ~ 105°C

The substitute parts DF62B-7EP-2.2C and DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10) maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the original part. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete) and color designation, which do not affect functional compatibility in applications where the connector housing color is not a critical design requirement.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

DF62B-7EP-2.2C is the primary substitute for DF62-7EP-2.2C. Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The DF62B variant is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected certification, providing supply chain continuity and regulatory compliance assurance.

DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10) is an alternative substitute with identical functional specifications. The primary distinction is housing color (white versus black). This variant is also active production status with equivalent compliance certifications. Color selection should be based on application-specific requirements or design specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF62B-7EP-2.2C directly replace DF62-7EP-2.2C in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including position count, pitch, row configuration, contact type, termination method, and operating temperature range. The substitution is functionally direct.

Q: What is the difference between DF62B-7EP-2.2C and DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10)?

A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary difference is housing color: DF62B-7EP-2.2C is black, while DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10) is white. Selection depends on application color requirements or design specifications.

Q: Why is the original DF62-7EP-2.2C marked as obsolete?

A: The DF62-7EP-2.2C has been superseded by the DF62B series variants, which offer active production status and current regulatory compliance certifications. The DF62B series maintains full backward compatibility while providing ongoing supply availability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: Both DF62B-7EP-2.2C and DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10) are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Do the substitute parts include contacts?

A: No. All variants in this comparison (DF62-7EP-2.2C, DF62B-7EP-2.2C, and DF62B-7EP-2.2C(10)) are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with the housing.
