Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Phoenix Contact 1460025 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Connector Type: Hood
• Style: Top Entry
• Size: B6
• Thread Size: M20
• Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast
• Series: HEAVYCON® B
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C

Two substitute parts meet these core requirements while offering enhanced specifications. Both alternatives maintain the same connector type, style, size designation, and thread size as the original part. The substitutes are active products with improved ingress protection ratings and salt water resistance features, providing superior environmental performance compared to the obsolete original.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1412574 is the direct functional equivalent for applications requiring M20 thread size. This substitute maintains identical thread specifications while providing active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The addition of IP66/IP69K ingress protection and salt water resistance represents an enhancement over the original obsolete part, suitable for applications in harsh or marine environments without requiring design modification.

Part 1412566 serves as an alternative for applications where M25 thread size is acceptable. This substitute offers the same connector type, style, and size designation but requires verification of mounting compatibility due to the larger M25 thread specification. Like part 1412574, it provides active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and enhanced environmental protection ratings.

Selection between substitutes depends on thread size requirements. For direct replacement of M20 applications, part 1412574 is the appropriate choice. For systems that can accommodate M25 threading, part 1412566 provides equivalent functionality with identical environmental performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1412574 directly replace the obsolete 1460025? A: Yes. Part 1412574 maintains identical connector type (Hood), style (Top Entry), size (B6), and thread size (M20) specifications. Both parts are constructed from aluminum die-cast material and operate across the same temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The substitute is an active product with enhanced ingress protection and compliance certifications.

Q: What is the difference between substitutes 1412574 and 1412566? A: The primary difference is thread size. Part 1412574 uses M20 threading, matching the original part. Part 1412566 uses M25 threading, requiring verification of mounting compatibility in your application. Both substitutes offer identical connector type, style, size, and environmental protection ratings.

Q: Are the substitute parts compatible with existing M20 mounting points? A: Part 1412574 is fully compatible with M20 mounting specifications. Part 1412566 requires M25 mounting provisions and is not compatible with M20 mounting points without mechanical adaptation.

Q: What compliance improvements do the substitutes offer? A: Both substitutes meet ROHS3 compliance compared to the original RoHS Compliant status. Additionally, both provide IP66/IP69K ingress protection ratings, offering dust-tight and waterproof performance. The substitutes also feature salt water resistance, enhancing durability in corrosive environments.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the original and substitute parts? A: The original part 1460025 was packaged in standard format. Substitutes 1412574 and 1412566 are supplied in bulk packaging. Verify bulk packaging requirements align with your procurement and inventory management procedures.

Q: Can both substitutes operate in the same temperature range as the original? A: Yes. All three parts operate across -40°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal compatibility in applications utilizing the original part specifications.
