Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DF62W-2226SC is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

• Series Designation: Both parts must belong to the DF62W series
• Contact Type: Socket configuration required
• Termination Method: Crimp termination only
• Wire Gauge Rating: 22-26 AWG specification
• Contact Finish: Tin plating with 39.4µin (1.00µm) thickness
• Electrical Classification: Rectangular connector category
• Compliance Status: RoHS compliance required

The identified substitute part DF62W-2226SCF meets all these criteria. The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is the packaging format: the main part is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. This packaging difference does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both DF62W-2226SC and DF62W-2226SCF are Active products from Hirose Electric Co., Ltd., with full RoHS compliance. The DF62W-2226SCF carries ROHS3 Compliant designation, indicating compliance with the most current RoHS requirements. Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8536.90.4000.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability. The Bulk packaging format of the DF62W-2226SC is suitable for high-volume assembly operations, while the Cut Tape (CT) format of DF62W-2226SCF accommodates automated pick-and-place equipment and smaller batch requirements. Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the DF62W connector system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can DF62W-2226SCF be used as a direct replacement for DF62W-2226SC?

A: Yes. Both parts are socket contacts within the DF62W series with identical electrical and mechanical specifications: 22-26 AWG wire gauge, crimp termination, and tin plating at 39.4µin thickness. The packaging format difference (Bulk vs. Cut Tape) does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between these parts?

A: Bulk packaging is typically used for manual assembly or high-volume operations where components are dispensed from containers. Cut Tape (CT) packaging is designed for automated assembly equipment with tape-and-reel feeding systems. Selection depends on assembly process requirements, not electrical performance.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. DF62W-2226SC is RoHS Compliant, and DF62W-2226SCF is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet environmental compliance requirements. ROHS3 represents the current revision of RoHS standards.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by these socket contacts?

A: Both parts support 22-26 AWG wire gauges. This range accommodates standard signal and power distribution applications within the specified gauge limits.

Q: Can these parts be mixed in the same connector assembly?

A: Yes. Since both parts are identical socket contacts from the DF62W series with the same electrical and mechanical properties, they can be used interchangeably within the same connector assembly. Packaging format does not affect mating or electrical performance.
