Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1460046 is based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type & Style: Hood, Side Entry configuration
  • Size Designation: B10
  • Thread Size: M25
  • Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B
  • Lock Mechanism: Locking Clip (1) on Base Bottom
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C
  • Material & Compliance: Aluminum die cast housing, RoHS Compliant

The substitute part 1412600 maintains identical specifications across all core functional and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is the addition of enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance features in the substitute, which represent functional improvements without altering the core mechanical interface or electrical performance envelope.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412600 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1460046. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces, electrical performance specifications, and environmental operating parameters within the HEAVYCON® B series.

The 1412600 maintains Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts carry RoHS Compliance certification and equivalent moisture sensitivity ratings, supporting regulatory and environmental requirements.

The 1412600 incorporates enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance features. These enhancements provide superior environmental sealing without modifying the core mechanical or electrical interface, making the 1412600 functionally compatible with existing installations designed for the 1460046.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412600 directly replace the 1460046 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces, thread sizes (M25), locking mechanisms, and operating temperature ranges (-40°C to 125°C). The 1412600 is mechanically and functionally compatible with systems designed for the 1460046.

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

A: The 1412600 includes enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance features. The 1460046 does not specify ingress protection ratings. Both maintain identical core specifications for connector type, size (B10), series (HEAVYCON® B), and material composition.

Q: Why is the 1460046 listed as Obsolete?

A: The 1460046 has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. The 1412600 represents the current active equivalent, offering the same mechanical and electrical performance with additional environmental protection capabilities.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1460046 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 1412600 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both the 1460046 and 1412600 are RoHS Compliant and carry identical Moisture Sensitivity Level ratings (MSL 1 - Unlimited).

Q: What are the dimensional specifications?

A: The 1460046 measures 2.874" L × 1.693" W × 2.835" H (73.00mm × 43.00mm × 72.00mm). The 1412600 measures 2.874" L × 1.732" W × 2.835" H (73.00mm × 44.00mm × 72.00mm). The width dimension differs by 0.039" (1.00mm), which falls within typical manufacturing tolerances for die cast aluminum housings.
