Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The HR25-9TJ-16SC has one direct substitute within the HR25 series: HR25-9TJ-16SC(72). This substitute relationship is established based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Same connector type (Jack Housing for Female Sockets)
• Identical position count (16 positions)
• Matching shell size and insert specifications (Size 9)
• Identical fastening mechanism (Threaded)
• Same material composition (Zinc Alloy shell, Nickel finish)
• Matching shielding configuration (Shielded)
• Identical operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C)
• Same flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Identical insert material (Polyphenylene Sulfide)

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and packaging configuration, not functional or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) is the direct substitute for HR25-9TJ-16SC. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

Use HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) when:

• New designs or system updates are being implemented
• RoHS compliance is required for the application
• Active product support and availability are priorities
• Bulk packaging meets procurement requirements

Use HR25-9TJ-16SC when:

• Legacy system maintenance requires exact original part matching
• Existing inventory stock is available and acceptable
• RoHS non-compliance does not conflict with application requirements

Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The choice between them depends on regulatory compliance needs, product lifecycle status, and procurement constraints rather than functional performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are HR25-9TJ-16SC and HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) electrically compatible? A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical specifications, including position count (16), contact type (Crimp), shielding configuration, and operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 85°C).

Q: What is the difference between these two parts? A: The primary differences are product status (Obsolete vs. Active), RoHS compliance status (non-compliant vs. Compliant), and packaging configuration (unspecified vs. Bulk). All mechanical and electrical parameters are identical.

Q: Can HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) be used as a direct replacement in existing assemblies? A: Yes. The parts share identical mechanical dimensions, fastening mechanisms (Threaded), mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line), and shell specifications (Size 9, Zinc Alloy with Nickel finish). No design modifications are required.

Q: Does the packaging difference affect compatibility? A: No. Packaging designation indicates quantity and presentation format for procurement purposes only. It does not affect the connector's functional or mechanical performance.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts? A: Both parts carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating. HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) additionally holds RoHS Compliant status, while HR25-9TJ-16SC is RoHS non-compliant. Both are classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Q: Are contacts included with these connectors? A: No. Both HR25-9TJ-16SC and HR25-9TJ-16SC(72) are jack housings supplied without contacts. Contacts must be procured separately and crimped into the housing.
