Phoenix Contact 1460041 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1460041 is a heavy duty connector hood designed for side entry applications with PG29 thread size, classified as part of the HEAVYCON® B series. This component provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where this connector type is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460041 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Connector type (Hood)
• Connector style (Side Entry)
• Size designation (B10)
• Lock location (Locking Clip on Base Bottom)
• Housing material (Aluminum, Die Cast)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C)
• Series family (HEAVYCON® B)

Secondary Consideration:

• Thread size variation (PG29 vs. PG16) represents a mechanical interface difference that must be evaluated against application requirements

The substitute part 1412627 maintains all primary compatibility criteria while introducing an enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and improved environmental resistance (salt water resistant). The thread size reduction from PG29 to PG16 represents the only dimensional variance and must be assessed for mechanical fit within the installation environment.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412627 serves as the active production equivalent to the obsolete 1460041. Both components share identical core specifications within the HEAVYCON® B series, including connector type, style, size designation, locking mechanism, housing material, and operating temperature range.

Selection of part 1412627 is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The 1412627 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete 1460041.
• Enhanced Environmental Protection: The upgrade from IP65 to IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection provides superior dust and water resistance, including waterproof capability and salt water resistance.
• Regulatory Compliance: The 1412627 meets ROHS3 compliance standards and maintains REACH unaffected status, aligning with current regulatory requirements.
• Mechanical Interface: The thread size reduction from PG29 to PG16 must be evaluated within the specific installation context to confirm mechanical compatibility with the mounting surface and cable gland requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412627 directly replace the 1460041 in existing installations?

A: Functional replacement is possible provided the PG16 thread size is compatible with the existing mounting interface. The 1460041 uses PG29 threading, while the 1412627 uses PG16. Mechanical fit must be confirmed before substitution.

Q: What is the difference in ingress protection between these parts?

A: The 1460041 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412627 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, and waterproof with salt water resistance). The enhanced rating in the substitute part represents an improvement in environmental sealing capability.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same temperature operating range?

A: Yes. Both the 1460041 and 1412627 operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 1460041 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production. The 1412627 maintains active production status, ensuring availability for procurement and future supply chain support.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: The 1460041 is RoHS Compliant. The 1412627 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, representing alignment with current regulatory frameworks.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1460041 packaging specification is not provided. The 1412627 is supplied in bulk packaging.
