Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1424682 is a direct substitute for the obsolete 1436738. Both connectors maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 4-position M12-4 configuration, spring-cage termination, 4A current rating, 48VAC/60VDC voltage rating, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.

The 1424682 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. The fastening mechanism differs (Push-Twist versus Threaded), which does not affect electrical compatibility but may require mechanical interface verification in existing installations. The 1424682 provides enhanced ingress protection rating (IP65/IP67 versus IP67) and upgraded RoHS3 compliance status.

Both parts maintain identical contact materials, shell construction, and environmental protection ratings. The insert material variation (Polyamide PA66 versus Thermoplastic Polyurethane) does not impact functional compatibility for the specified operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1424682 directly replace the 1436738 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical ratings (4A, 48VAC/60VDC), mechanical configuration (M12-4, 4-position), and environmental specifications (IP67, -40°C to 85°C). The fastening mechanism differs (Push-Twist versus Threaded), requiring verification of the mating interface in the specific installation.

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

A: The 1436738 is obsolete, while the 1424682 is active. The 1424682 features Push-Twist fastening instead of Threaded fastening and provides IP65/IP67 ingress protection versus IP67 only. Both maintain identical electrical and core mechanical specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences?

A: The 1424682 carries ROHS3 Compliant status compared to the 1436738's RoHS Compliant status. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and EAR99 export classification. The 1424682 includes REACH Unaffected designation.

Q: Does the insert material change affect performance?

A: No. The insert material variation (Polyamide PA66 in the 1424682 versus Thermoplastic Polyurethane in the 1436738) does not impact electrical performance or compatibility within the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

Q: What packaging differences exist?

A: The 1436738 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 1424682 is supplied in Bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and handling but does not impact connector functionality or compatibility.
