Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460235 is determined by strict alignment of the following core parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Hood
• Style: Side Entry
• Size: B24
• Lock Location: Locking Clip (2) on Base Bottom
• Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
• Series: HEAVYCON® B

Variable Parameters Allowing Substitution:

• Thread Size: M25 or M32 (both accommodate standard heavy duty connector applications)
• Product Status: Active substitutes are preferred for obsolete parts
• Ingress Protection: Enhanced ratings (IP66/IP67/IP69K) represent functional improvements
• RoHS Compliance: Both RoHS and ROHS3 compliance satisfy regulatory requirements

The two identified substitutes maintain all critical parameters while offering enhanced ingress protection ratings and active product status, making them suitable replacements for the obsolete 1460235.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For M25 Thread Applications: Phoenix Contact 1412773 is the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 1460235. Both components share identical thread size (M25), connector configuration, and mechanical specifications. The 1412773 offers the advantage of active product status with enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and ROHS3 compliance, providing superior environmental sealing and regulatory alignment for new designs or system upgrades.

For M32 Thread Applications: Phoenix Contact 1412750 serves as a substitute where M32 threading is required or preferred. This part maintains all critical mechanical and thermal specifications while providing IP66/IP67/IP69K ingress protection and active availability. The M32 thread size accommodates applications requiring larger diameter panel penetrations.

Compliance Considerations: Both substitute parts maintain RoHS compliance (1412750: RoHS, 1412773: ROHS3), satisfying regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement. The ROHS3 compliance of 1412773 aligns with current EU regulatory standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1412750 (M32) directly replace 1460235 (M25)? A: Direct mechanical replacement requires M32 thread compatibility in the mounting interface. If the application is designed for M25 threading, 1412750 will not fit without panel modification. For M25 applications, use 1412773.

Q: What is the significance of the IP66/IP67/IP69K rating on substitute parts? A: These ingress protection ratings indicate enhanced sealing against dust and water ingress. IP66 provides dust-tight protection and water jet resistance; IP67 adds temporary immersion capability; IP69K includes high-pressure steam jet resistance. The original 1460235 does not specify an ingress protection rating, while substitutes provide documented environmental protection.

Q: Are both substitute parts suitable for the same operating temperature range? A: Yes. Both 1412750 and 1412773 operate across the identical -40°C to 125°C temperature range as the original 1460235, ensuring thermal compatibility in existing applications.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance? A: ROHS3 represents the current EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (2011/65/EU as amended). Both RoHS and ROHS3 compliance satisfy hazardous substance restrictions; ROHS3 reflects the most current regulatory standard.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitutes? A: The original 1460235 packaging is not specified. Both substitutes are supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for production and maintenance inventory applications.

Q: Can I use 1412773 as a drop-in replacement for 1460235? A: Yes, for M25 thread applications. The 1412773 maintains identical mechanical configuration, thread size, and thermal specifications. Verify that the application does not depend on the absence of ingress protection specifications.
