Phoenix Contact 1460270 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1460270 is a heavy duty connector hood designed for side entry applications with M32 thread size in the HEAVYCON® B series. This component provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The part is currently marked as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The connector features aluminum die-cast housing with powder coating and accommodates B24 size specifications with dual locking clips on the hood.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1460270 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood connector with side entry configuration
• Size Specification: B24 size requirement must be maintained
• Thread Size: M32 thread compatibility is mandatory
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series maintains mechanical and electrical consistency
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C operational envelope
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die-cast construction
• RoHS Compliance: Must maintain RoHS compliant status

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1412764 meets all these critical parameters while providing enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67 versus IP65) and additional salt water resistance features. Both components share identical thread size, size designation, connector type, and temperature operating range, establishing direct substitutability within the HEAVYCON® B series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412764 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 1460270 connector hood. Both components maintain identical mechanical specifications (B24 size, M32 thread, side entry configuration) and thermal operating parameters (-40°C to 125°C). The substitute part 1412764 is currently in active production status with 800 units available in inventory, whereas the original part is obsolete with limited stock availability.

The 1412764 provides enhanced environmental protection through IP66/IP67 rating compared to the IP65 specification of the 1460270, along with documented salt water resistance. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and aluminum die-cast housing construction. The dimensional variance (1mm width difference: 43mm versus 44mm) falls within standard manufacturing tolerances for this connector category and does not affect mechanical fit or electrical performance in standard mounting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1412764 directly replace 1460270 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type (hood), style (side entry), size (B24), thread size (M32), locking mechanism (dual clips), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and housing material (aluminum die cast). The 1412764 provides equivalent or superior performance with enhanced ingress protection.

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

A: The 1460270 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412764 provides IP66/IP67 protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). IP66/IP67 represents a higher environmental protection rating suitable for more demanding applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1460270 was supplied with unspecified packaging. The 1412764 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your specific procurement and logistics processes.

Q: Why is the original part marked obsolete?

A: The 1460270 is obsolete in the Phoenix Contact product line. The 1412764 represents the current active production equivalent with enhanced specifications and continued manufacturer support.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1460270 and 1412764 maintain full RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the dimensional difference between these connectors?

A: The width dimension differs by 1mm (1460270: 43mm width; 1412764: 44mm width). Length (120mm) and height (76mm) are identical. This 1mm variance is within standard manufacturing tolerances and does not affect standard mounting applications.
