Phoenix Contact 1460101 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1460101 is a Heavy Duty Connector Hood designed for top entry applications with PG21 thread size and B16 form factor. This connector provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across -40°C to 125°C. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for system maintenance, repair, and new installations requiring equivalent functionality.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460101 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

  • Connector Type: Hood
  • Style: Top Entry
  • Size: B16
  • Thread Size: PG21
  • Series: HEAVYCON® B
  • Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C

Ingress Protection Consideration: The 1460101 specifies IP65 protection. Substitute parts with equal or higher ingress protection ratings (IP66, IP67, IP69K) maintain or exceed the environmental sealing requirements and are functionally compatible.

Compliance Baseline: Both RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant designations satisfy regulatory requirements for this product category.

The Phoenix Contact 1412732 meets all core compatibility parameters with enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: Phoenix Contact 1412732 is the qualified substitute for 1460101. Both components share identical core specifications: HEAVYCON® B series, B16 size, PG21 thread, top entry hood configuration, and aluminum die-cast housing. Operating temperature ranges and MSL ratings are equivalent.

Compliance Advantage: The 1412732 carries ROHS3 Compliant status, representing current regulatory alignment. The 1460101's RoHS Compliant designation reflects earlier compliance frameworks. Both satisfy applicable environmental and safety standards for heavy duty connector applications.

Ingress Protection Enhancement: The 1412732 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection versus the 1460101's IP65 rating. This represents an upgrade in environmental sealing capability, offering enhanced dust and water resistance suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Product Lifecycle: The 1460101 is obsolete; the 1412732 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1412732 directly replace 1460101 in existing installations? A: Yes. Both components are HEAVYCON® B series hoods with identical B16 size, PG21 thread, top entry configuration, and aluminum die-cast construction. The 1412732 provides equivalent or superior performance across all critical parameters.

Q: What is the difference in ingress protection between these parts? A: The 1460101 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412732 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). Higher ratings indicate enhanced environmental sealing and are compatible with applications requiring the original IP65 specification.

Q: Are there temperature or operating range differences? A: No. Both components operate across -40°C to 125°C with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) ratings.

Q: Does the 1412732 have different physical dimensions? A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The 1460101 measures 3.681" L x 1.693" W x 2.559" H (94.60mm x 43.00mm x 65.00mm). The 1412732 measures 3.681" L x 1.732" W x 2.362" H (94.60mm x 44.00mm x 60.00mm). Length remains constant; width and height differ slightly. Verify mechanical fit in your specific application.

Q: What is the packaging difference? A: The 1460101 packaging specification is not provided. The 1412732 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. The 1460101 is RoHS Compliant. The 1412732 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet applicable environmental regulations for this product category.

Q: Why is 1460101 listed as obsolete? A: Product obsolescence reflects end-of-life status in the manufacturer's product portfolio. The 1412732 represents the current active equivalent within the HEAVYCON® B series.
