Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460108 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood configuration with top entry design
• Size Designation: B16 form factor
• Thread Interface: M32 thread size for mechanical mounting
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die-cast construction
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C capability
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance status

The substitute part 1412689 maintains identical specifications across all critical mechanical and electrical parameters while offering enhanced environmental protection through IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection rating and salt water resistance features. Both components share the same series designation, connector type, size, thread interface, and operating temperature envelope, establishing direct functional equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412689 serves as the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 1460108. Selection between these components should be based on the following engineering criteria:

For Direct Replacement: Part 1412689 is the appropriate choice for applications currently using 1460108. The substitute maintains identical mechanical interfaces (M32 thread, B16 size, top entry configuration) and thermal operating range (-40°C to 125°C), ensuring drop-in compatibility within existing assemblies.

Compliance Advantage: Part 1412689 carries ROHS3 compliance status compared to the RoHS compliance of the original part, providing alignment with current regulatory requirements. Both components maintain EAR99 ECCN classification and identical HTSUS coding (8538.90.8180).

Environmental Protection Enhancement: Part 1412689 incorporates IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection and salt water resistance, offering superior environmental sealing compared to the original specification. This enhancement is beneficial for applications in harsh industrial environments, marine applications, or locations with corrosive atmospheres, without compromising mechanical or thermal compatibility.

Active Product Status: Part 1412689 maintains active product status with established supply chain availability (1041 pieces in stock), whereas 1460108 is obsolete. This ensures long-term sourcing reliability and technical support continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1412689 be used as a direct replacement for 1460108?

A: Yes. Both components share identical specifications for connector type (hood), style (top entry), size (B16), thread interface (M32), housing material (aluminum die-cast), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The mechanical mounting interface and electrical connection points are equivalent, enabling direct substitution in existing applications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and environmental protection. Part 1412689 is active production with IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection and salt water resistance, whereas 1460108 is obsolete with unspecified ingress protection. Both maintain identical core mechanical and thermal specifications.

Q: Does the enhanced ingress protection of 1412689 affect compatibility?

A: No. The IP66/IP67/IP69K rating of 1412689 represents an enhancement that does not compromise compatibility. The improved environmental sealing is additive and does not alter the mechanical interface, thread size, or mounting configuration required for the B16 M32 hood connector.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. Part 1460108 is supplied with unspecified packaging, while 1412689 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Part 1412689 is the appropriate selection for new designs. It maintains full compatibility with the original specification while offering active product status, enhanced environmental protection, and current regulatory compliance (ROHS3).
