Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Phoenix Contact 1460123 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact
• Series: HEAVYCON® B
• Connector Type: Hood
• Style: Side Entry
• Size: B16
• Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Secondary Variation Parameters:

• Thread Size (M25 or M32)
• Ingress Protection Rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K)
• Product Status (Active vs. Obsolete)

The identified substitutes maintain the core mechanical and electrical interface specifications while offering enhanced environmental protection ratings and active product status for ongoing procurement.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: Phoenix Contact 1412725

Part number 1412725 provides direct functional substitution for 1460123 with identical thread size (M25) and B16 size specification. This part maintains all core mechanical and electrical interface parameters while offering Active product status for reliable procurement. The addition of IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection and salt water resistance represents enhanced environmental performance without compromising the original interface requirements. ROHS3 compliance and identical operating temperature range ensure regulatory and thermal compatibility.

Secondary Substitute: Phoenix Contact 1412679

Part number 1412679 serves as an alternative substitute with M32 thread size instead of M25. This part is suitable only when system design permits M32 thread accommodation. Like 1412725, it provides Active product status, IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection, and salt water resistance. Selection of 1412679 requires mechanical verification that the larger M32 thread size integrates with existing mounting infrastructure.

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1412725 directly replace 1460123 without mechanical modification?

A: Yes. Part 1412725 maintains identical thread size (M25) and B16 size specification as 1460123. The mechanical interface is compatible without modification. The enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance represent functional improvements rather than interface changes.

Q: What is the difference between 1412725 and 1412679?

A: The primary difference is thread size. Part 1412725 uses M25 thread (matching the original 1460123), while 1412679 uses M32 thread. Both parts share identical B16 size, HEAVYCON® B series designation, and environmental protection ratings. Selection depends on the mounting thread requirement of your application.

Q: Why is the original part 1460123 marked as Obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The substitute parts 1412725 and 1412679 are Active products from the same manufacturer and series, providing continuity for applications requiring this connector type.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 1412725 and 1412679 are ROHS3 Compliant, matching the compliance status of the original 1460123. Both parts are also REACH Unaffected.

Q: What does the IP66/IP67/IP69K rating mean for these connectors?

A: IP66/IP67/IP69K indicates dust-tight, water-resistant, and waterproof performance. The substitute parts 1412725 and 1412679 provide enhanced environmental protection compared to the original 1460123, which has no specified ingress protection rating.

Q: Can I use 1412679 (M32) in place of 1460123 (M25)?

A: Only if your mounting interface accommodates M32 thread size. The M32 thread is larger than M25 and requires different mounting hardware. Mechanical compatibility must be verified before substitution.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these parts?

A: All three parts operate across -40°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal compatibility across the full range of industrial applications.
