Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0395200709 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Voltage and current ratings must meet or exceed application requirements. The main part supports 300 V UL and 18 A UL. Substitute parts must maintain these electrical specifications or higher.
• Physical Compatibility: 9-position configuration, 5.00mm pitch, and 180° free-hanging in-line orientation are non-negotiable for mechanical fit and assembly.
• Termination Method: Screw-rising cage clamp termination ensures consistent wire connection methodology.
• Wire Gauge Support: 12-30 AWG compatibility must be maintained for proper conductor accommodation.
• Environmental & Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and ROHS3 compliance are required for regulatory alignment.

The Phoenix Contact 1754588 qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent based on these criteria.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0395200709 and Phoenix Contact 1754588 are Active status components with ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Selection between these parts should be based on application current requirements:

• Molex 0395200709: Select when application requires 18 A UL current rating and -40°C to 115°C operating temperature specification is critical.
• Phoenix Contact 1754588: Select when 15 A UL current rating is sufficient for the application. This part provides equivalent mechanical and electrical compatibility at reduced current capacity.

Both parts support identical pitch, position count, wire gauge range, and termination methodology, ensuring direct mechanical and functional interchangeability within their respective current ratings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1754588 be used as a direct replacement for Molex 0395200709?

A: Yes, provided the application current requirement does not exceed 15 A UL. The Phoenix Contact part maintains identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (9), wire gauge support (12-30 AWG), termination style (screw-rising cage clamp), and mounting configuration (180° free-hanging in-line). Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and UL94 V-0 rated.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is the UL current rating. Molex 0395200709 is rated for 18 A UL, while Phoenix Contact 1754588 is rated for 15 A UL. Both maintain 300 V UL voltage rating and identical mechanical specifications.

Q: Are the screw torque specifications compatible?

A: Yes. Molex specifies 0.56 Nm (5.0 Lb-In), while Phoenix Contact specifies 0.5-0.6 Nm (4.4-5.3 Lb-In). The Phoenix Contact range encompasses the Molex specification, ensuring compatible assembly procedures.

Q: Do both parts support the same wire gauge range?

A: Yes. Both parts accommodate 12-30 AWG conductors, ensuring identical wire compatibility and termination capability.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, UL94 V-0 flammability rated, and carry EAR99 ECCN classification with HTSUS code 8536.90.4000.
