The gray PA6 glass-filled housing carries the sealed designation, meaning the assembled connector with proper seals and mating header resists moisture and debris ingress — suited for underhood automotive, off-highway equipment, or outdoor industrial cabinets where a washdown or rain exposure is routine. ## Pitch and Position Fit for the Harness The 3.50mm pitch matches the standard MX150 footprint, so the board-side header and wire-dress spacing are fixed by this dimension. The 12 positions in two rows (6 per row) line up with a 12-circuit harness schematic — confirm the circuit count before committing the BOM line. ## Temperature Range and Sealing for Real Duty The sealed feature requires the correct mating header and terminal position assurance (TPA) to achieve the IP rating — the housing alone is the shell; the full seal comes from the assembled connector system. Crimp termination (female socket contacts sold separately) lets you field-terminate wires with the MX150 crimp tool, replacing a damaged pin without scrapping the whole harness.","metaTitle":"Molex MX150 1601116002 Receptacle Housing, 12 Pos, 3.50mm","metaDescription":"Molex MX150 1601116002 12-position receptacle housing, 3.50mm pitch, sealed, latch holder, -40°C~125°C.

The mating terminal is the MX150 female crimp contact (sold separately), sized for the wire gauge you are running. The housing does not include contacts — order them separately for the harness build."},{"question":"Is 1601116002 a direct replacement for 1601116001?","answer":"No. The 1601116001 is an 8-position housing in the same MX150 series and 3.50mm pitch. The 1601116002 is 12 positions — if your BOM calls for 12 circuits, the 8-position housing will not fit. They share the same series and sealing but differ in position count."},{"question":"What is the pitch of Molex 1601116002?","answer":"The pitch is 0.138\" (3.50mm), standard for the MX150 series. This drives the board footprint and wire-to-wire spacing in the harness."},{"question":"Is 1601116002 a sealed housing?","answer":"Yes, the housing is listed with a Sealed feature designation. When mated with the correct MX150 header and fitted with proper seals and TPA, the assembly meets IP-rated ingress protection for wet or dusty environments."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/molex/1601116002","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/molex/1601116002 when reusing this data.
