Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1460227 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood connector with side entry configuration
• Size Designation: B6 form factor
• Thread Size: M20 mechanical interface
• Lock Mechanism: Locking clip on base bottom
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C range
• Material Specification: Aluminum die-cast housing
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance and EAR99 classification

The substitute part 1412570 maintains all critical mechanical and electrical interface parameters while introducing enhanced environmental protection through IP66/IP69K ingress protection rating and salt water resistance features. Both parts share identical thread size, locking mechanism, size designation, and operating temperature specifications, establishing direct substitution compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412570 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1460227. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical interfaces, electrical specifications, and thermal operating ranges within the HEAVYCON® B series. The 1412570 is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability, whereas the 1460227 is obsolete.

The 1412570 provides enhanced environmental protection through IP66/IP69K ingress protection rating and salt water resistance, making it suitable for applications previously served by the 1460227 while offering improved performance in harsh environmental conditions. Both parts maintain equivalent RoHS compliance status and export classification codes.

For applications requiring the exact original specification without enhanced environmental protection features, the 1412570 remains mechanically and electrically compatible. The dimensional variations between the two parts (width and height differences of 0.039" and 0.158" respectively) do not affect the core mechanical interface or mounting compatibility due to the standardized M20 thread and B6 form factor.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1412570 directly replace 1460227 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector type, style, size designation (B6), thread size (M20), locking mechanism, and operating temperature range. The mechanical interface and electrical specifications are equivalent, enabling direct substitution in existing applications.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 1412570 includes IP66/IP69K ingress protection rating and salt water resistance features not specified in the 1460227. Both parts maintain the same core mechanical and electrical interface specifications.

Q: Are there any dimensional compatibility concerns?

A: The 1412570 has minor dimensional variations (width +0.039", height -0.158") compared to the 1460227. These variations do not affect the standardized M20 thread interface or B6 form factor compatibility.

Q: What is the product status difference?

A: The 1460227 is obsolete with no new production. The 1412570 is in active production with current inventory availability, making it the recommended choice for new designs and replacements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1460227 is RoHS Compliant, and the 1412570 is ROHS3 Compliant, both meeting current regulatory requirements.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 1460227 original packaging specification is not provided. The 1412570 is available in bulk packaging.
