Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1460093 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood - Coupling, Bottom Entry configuration
• Size Designation: B16 form factor
• Thread Interface: M32 threading for mechanical compatibility
• Locking Mechanism: Locking Clip (2) on Hood Top
• Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast construction
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C range
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS Compliant status
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1412642 maintains all critical mechanical and electrical parameters while providing enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412642 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 1460093. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces (B16 size, M32 thread, bottom entry configuration) and thermal operating range (-40°C to 125°C). Both maintain RoHS compliance and are manufactured from aluminum die-cast material with identical locking mechanisms.

The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: 1460093 is obsolete while 1412642 is active. The substitute provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the original specification (IP65), representing a performance improvement suitable for applications requiring higher environmental sealing standards. This upgrade does not compromise compatibility with existing B16 M32 connector systems.

For new designs and replacement applications, the 1412642 is the appropriate selection due to active manufacturing status and enhanced environmental protection capabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1412642 directly replace 1460093 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces (B16 size, M32 thread, bottom entry style, locking clip configuration) and thermal specifications (-40°C to 125°C). The 1412642 provides equivalent or superior functionality with enhanced ingress protection.

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

A: The 1460093 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412642 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). The enhanced rating does not affect mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the 1460093 obsolete?

A: Product lifecycle management by Phoenix Contact has transitioned this model to obsolete status. The 1412642 represents the active equivalent with improved environmental protection specifications.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist: 1460093 measures 94.00mm L x 43.00mm W x 71.00mm H; 1412642 measures 94.60mm L x 44.00mm W x 79.00mm H. These variations do not affect mechanical interface compatibility with B16 M32 connector systems.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both components are RoHS Compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification, meeting equivalent regulatory standards for industrial connector applications.
