Phoenix Contact 1460102 Heavy Duty Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1460102 is a hood-style side entry heavy duty connector in the HEAVYCON® B series, designed for M25 thread applications with B16 size configuration. This connector provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across -40°C to 125°C. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460102 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood-style side entry configuration
• Size Designation: B16 size class
• Thread Interface: M25 thread size
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series
• Ingress Protection: Minimum IP65; higher ratings (IP66, IP67, IP69K) are acceptable as they provide equal or superior environmental sealing
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C range
• Housing Material: Aluminum die cast construction
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected

The substitute part 1412725 meets all these criteria while offering enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance, making it a direct functional replacement.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412725 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1460102. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces (M25 thread, B16 size, side entry hood configuration) and thermal operating range. The 1412725 maintains full ROHS3 and REACH compliance, ensuring regulatory continuity.

The 1412725 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and includes salt water resistance, representing a specification upgrade without mechanical or electrical incompatibility. The active product status of 1412725 ensures long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete 1460102.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412725 directly replace the 1460102 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical mounting interfaces (M25 thread, B16 size, side entry hood style, locking clip configuration) and operate across the same temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The 1412725 provides equal or superior environmental protection.

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

A: The 1460102 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412725 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). Higher IP ratings indicate enhanced sealing performance and are compatible with applications requiring IP65 or lower.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these connectors?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The 1460102 measures 3.681" L × 1.693" W × 2.559" H (94.60mm × 43.00mm × 65.00mm). The 1412725 measures 3.681" L × 1.732" W × 2.362" H (94.60mm × 44.00mm × 60.00mm). Length remains identical; width and height differ slightly. Verify mounting clearances in your specific application.

Q: Does the 1412725 include salt water resistance?

A: Yes. The 1412725 includes salt water resistance as a feature, providing additional corrosion protection in marine or coastal environments compared to the 1460102.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1460102 and 1412725 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the availability status of these parts?

A: The 1460102 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory (1050 pcs). The 1412725 is active production with current inventory (907 pcs), ensuring reliable long-term availability for new designs and replacements.
