Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0395126016 and Phoenix Contact 1803413 are active products with full ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Availability: Phoenix Contact 1803413 shows 1000 pcs in stock versus 729 pcs for the Molex part
Supply Chain Requirements: Either part satisfies identical electrical and mechanical specifications
Series Compatibility: Molex Eurostyle ESE 39512 series versus Phoenix Contact COMBICON MC series—verify connector compatibility with mating receptacles in your application
Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet EAR99 export classification and HTSUS 8536.69.4040 tariff codes

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1803413 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0395126016?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (8 A, 300 V UL), mechanical configuration (16 positions, 0.150" pitch, 90° right-angle), termination method (solder), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, UL94 V-0). Physical dimensions vary slightly (contact tail length and insulation height differ by approximately 0.004" and 0.015" respectively), but these variations remain within standard PCB design tolerances for through-hole mounting.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: Housing material differs—Molex uses Polyamide (PA66) Nylon 6/6, while Phoenix Contact uses Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Contact tail length is 0.138" (Molex) versus 0.134" (Phoenix Contact), and insulation height is 0.270" (Molex) versus 0.285" (Phoenix Contact). These dimensional variations are typical between manufacturers and do not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Q: Are there any mating connector compatibility concerns?

A: Verify that the mating receptacle or connector is compatible with the specific series—Molex Eurostyle ESE 39512 or Phoenix Contact COMBICON MC. While both headers share identical pitch and position count, series-specific design features may affect mating performance. Consult the mating connector documentation to confirm compatibility.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these parts?

A: The Molex 0395126016 operates from -40°C to 105°C. Operating temperature for the Phoenix Contact 1803413 is not specified in the provided data; refer to the manufacturer's datasheet for complete thermal specifications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the Molex 0395126016 and Phoenix Contact 1803413 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level), indicating no special storage or handling requirements.
