VHR-2N Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The VHR-2N is a 2-position rectangular connector receptacle housing manufactured by JST Sales America Inc. This component is part of the VH series and features a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch with crimp termination and latch lock fastening. The part is actively produced and widely used in applications requiring reliable in-line connector solutions. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or design flexibility needs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the VHR-2N are identified based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle housing with female socket contacts
Position Count & Pitch: 2 positions at 0.156" (3.96mm) spacing
Termination & Fastening: Crimp termination with latch lock fastening
Mounting Configuration: Free hanging in-line mounting
Environmental Compliance: RoHS and REACH status

The substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring functional interchangeability within the defined parameter set. Differences in insulation material composition and operating temperature ranges are noted but do not preclude substitution when application requirements fall within the overlapping operational envelope.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

VHR-2N (JST Sales America Inc.): Primary specification part. ROHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status. Operating temperature range -25°C to 85°C. Suitable for standard industrial applications within specified thermal envelope.

1-1123722-2 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): Direct substitute with extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 105°C). Note: Connector type is listed as Plug rather than Receptacle; verify mating compatibility with application requirements. RoHS compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. Higher inventory availability (47,696 pcs) supports supply chain flexibility.

CI5202S0000 (Cvilux USA): Direct substitute maintaining receptacle configuration. ROHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status. Extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 105°C). Packaged in bags rather than bulk. Suitable for applications requiring thermal performance beyond the primary part specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1-1123722-2 be used as a direct replacement for VHR-2N?

A: The 1-1123722-2 shares identical pitch, position count, termination method, and fastening type. However, it is classified as a Plug connector type versus the VHR-2N Receptacle type. Substitution is valid only when the application circuit design accommodates a plug housing in place of a receptacle housing. Verify mating connector compatibility before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The VHR-2N operates from -25°C to 85°C, while both substitute parts extend to 105°C. If your application operates within the VHR-2N range, all three parts are functionally equivalent. If thermal conditions exceed 85°C, only the substitute parts (1-1123722-2 or CI5202S0000) are suitable.

Q: Are there differences in insulation material between these parts?

A: The VHR-2N uses Polyamide (PA6) Nylon 6, while both substitutes use Polyamide (PA66) Nylon 6/6. Both materials are suitable for the specified environmental and electrical requirements. Material selection does not affect electrical interchangeability for this connector category.

Q: What is the difference between bulk and bag packaging?

A: VHR-2N and 1-1123722-2 are supplied in bulk packaging, while CI5202S0000 is supplied in bag packaging. Packaging format does not affect component functionality or electrical performance. Selection depends on inventory management and handling procedures specific to your organization.

Q: How do RoHS and REACH compliance statuses affect substitution?

A: All three parts meet RoHS compliance requirements. VHR-2N and CI5202S0000 are ROHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status. The 1-1123722-2 is RoHS compliant with vendor-undefined REACH status. For applications requiring confirmed REACH compliance, VHR-2N or CI5202S0000 are preferred.

Q: Are contacts included with these connector housings?

A: No. All three parts are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with any of these components.
