Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 1412578 is classified as a direct equivalent based on the following critical parameters that determine substitution validity:

• Connector Type & Style: Both parts are Hood - Coupling connectors with bottom entry configuration
• Size & Thread: Both use B10 form factor with M20 thread size
• Series: Both belong to the HEAVYCON® B series
• Housing Material & Construction: Both feature aluminum die-cast housing
• Operating Temperature Range: Both operate from -40°C to 125°C
• RoHS Compliance: Both are RoHS compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The primary distinction is the enhanced ingress protection rating of the substitute part (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and its active product status, making it suitable for applications requiring equal or greater environmental protection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1412578 is the direct substitute for 1460151. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical connector type, size, thread specification, and locking mechanism ensure direct mechanical interchangeability
• Environmental Performance: The substitute provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the original IP65 rating, suitable for applications requiring equal or superior environmental sealing
• Thermal Performance: Identical operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) maintains thermal compatibility
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and identical MSL ratings
• Product Lifecycle: The substitute is active in production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1412578 be used as a direct replacement for 1460151?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical specifications (B10 size, M20 thread, bottom entry configuration, locking clip design) and thermal operating range. The substitute provides enhanced ingress protection, making it suitable for equivalent or more demanding environmental conditions.

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

A: Part 1460151 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). Part 1412578 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof, and high-pressure jet resistant). The enhanced rating of the substitute does not compromise compatibility with systems designed for IP65.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these connectors?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. Part 1460151 measures 2.874" L x 1.693" W x 2.441" H (73.00mm x 43.00mm x 62.00mm). Part 1412578 measures 2.874" L x 1.732" W x 2.953" H (73.00mm x 44.00mm x 75.00mm). Length and depth remain identical; width and height show slight increases. Verify mounting space availability in your application.

Q: Why is part 1460151 obsolete?

A: Part 1460151 has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. Part 1412578 represents the current active production equivalent within the HEAVYCON® B series.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 1460151 and 1412578 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: Part 1460151 packaging information is not specified. Part 1412578 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.
