Phoenix Contact 1436754 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1436754 is a 4-position circular connector plug with male pins and spring-cage termination, designed for M12-4 applications. This connector features shielded construction with IP67 ingress protection, nickel-plated zinc die-cast shell, and gold-plated copper tin contacts. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for system maintenance and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1436754 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type and gender (Plug, Male Pins)
• Position count (4 positions)
• Shell size and insert designation (M12-4)
• Termination method (Spring-Cage)
• Fastening mechanism (Push-Twist)
• Orientation (D)
• Electrical ratings (4A current, 48VAC/60VDC voltage)
• Ingress protection minimum (IP67 or higher)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
• Shielding requirement (Shielded)

The Phoenix Contact 1424684 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all critical parameters. Differences in mounting orientation (angled vs. right angle) and insert material composition do not affect functional interchangeability in applications requiring M12-4 spring-cage plug connectors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1424684 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 1436754 based on functional equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both connectors maintain identical specifications for position count, shell size, termination method, electrical ratings, and operating conditions.

The 1424684 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The upgrade to ROHS3 compliance from RoHS compliance represents an improvement in regulatory standing. The enhanced ingress protection rating (IP65/IP67 vs. IP67) provides equivalent or superior environmental sealing.

The primary design difference—right angle mounting versus angled mounting—must be evaluated against specific installation geometry requirements. In applications where mounting orientation is not constrained, the 1424684 provides a direct functional replacement. In space-restricted installations requiring the original angled configuration, mechanical adaptation or alternative connector selection may be necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1424684 directly replace the 1436754 in all applications?

A: The 1424684 provides functional equivalence for electrical and environmental performance. The mounting orientation difference (right angle vs. angled) requires assessment against installation space constraints. If the original angled orientation is mechanically required, alternative solutions must be evaluated.

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

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active), mounting orientation (angled vs. right angle), insert material composition (TPU vs. PA66 nylon), and regulatory compliance level (RoHS vs. ROHS3). All electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications remain equivalent.

Q: Are the spring-cage termination characteristics identical?

A: Both connectors employ identical spring-cage termination with push-twist fastening. Cable opening ranges, contact materials, and contact finishes are equivalent, ensuring compatible wire termination procedures.

Q: Does the insert material change affect connector performance?

A: Both insert materials (TPU and PA66 nylon) meet the same performance requirements for this connector class. The material substitution does not affect electrical conductivity, mechanical durability, or environmental sealing within the specified operating parameters.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1424684 is in active production with 1053 pieces available in new original stock, compared to 726 pieces of the obsolete 1436754. The active status ensures continued procurement availability.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both connectors meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain equivalent environmental protection ratings. The 1424684 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing a regulatory advancement over the RoHS compliance of the 1436754.
