Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460079 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be Hood type with Side Entry configuration
• Size Classification: Must maintain B10 size specification for mechanical compatibility
• Thread Size: M20 thread specification for mounting interface compatibility
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die-cast construction to ensure equivalent mechanical properties
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -40°C to 125°C operational envelope
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series maintains design consistency

Substitute parts 1412592 and 1412616 are identified as equivalent alternatives. Part 1412616 maintains identical thread size (M20) and represents a direct functional equivalent. Part 1412592 uses M25 thread size, which represents a mechanical variation suitable for applications where M25 mounting interfaces are specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using Phoenix Contact 1460079, component selection should prioritize active product status and current compliance certifications.

Part 1412616 is the primary substitute for direct replacement applications. This part maintains identical M20 thread size specification, ensuring mounting interface compatibility without modification. Both parts share RoHS compliance status and equivalent operating temperature ranges. Part 1412616 is currently Active in product status with enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K), providing improved environmental sealing compared to the obsolete original specification.

Part 1412592 serves as an alternative for applications where M25 thread mounting interfaces are specified or preferred. This part provides ROHS3 compliance and identical ingress protection characteristics to part 1412616. Selection of this variant requires confirmation that M25 thread specification is compatible with the installation mounting interface.

Both substitute parts are manufactured by Phoenix Contact within the HEAVYCON® B series, maintaining design consistency and interchangeability within the product family. Current inventory availability for both substitutes exceeds 900 units, supporting procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1412616 be used as a direct replacement for 1460079?

A: Yes. Part 1412616 maintains the M20 thread size, B10 size classification, side entry configuration, and aluminum die-cast housing specification. Both parts operate within the -40°C to 125°C temperature range and meet RoHS compliance requirements. The primary difference is product status; 1412616 is Active while 1460079 is Obsolete.

Q: What is the difference between 1412592 and 1412616?

A: The primary difference is thread size. Part 1412592 uses M25 thread specification, while 1412616 uses M20 thread specification. Both parts share identical B10 size classification, side entry style, and ingress protection ratings. Thread size selection depends on the mounting interface specification of the installation.

Q: Are the substitute parts compatible with existing M20 mounting interfaces?

A: Part 1412616 is compatible with M20 mounting interfaces. Part 1412592 requires M25 mounting interfaces and is not compatible with M20 specifications without adapter modification.

Q: What ingress protection rating does the original 1460079 provide?

A: The ingress protection rating for part 1460079 is not specified in the product documentation. Both substitute parts 1412592 and 1412616 provide IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection, representing enhanced environmental sealing capability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: The original part 1460079 packaging is not specified. Substitute parts 1412592 and 1412616 are supplied in Bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with procurement specifications before component selection.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Part 1412616 meets RoHS compliance. Part 1412592 meets ROHS3 compliance, representing the current regulatory standard. Both parts are classified as REACH Unaffected or equivalent status, confirming compliance with current environmental regulations.
