Phoenix Contact 1460347 Heavy Duty Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1460347 is a heavy duty hood connector designed for side entry applications with M25 thread size in the HEAVYCON® B series. This connector 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 obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for system maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1460347 is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood connector with side entry configuration
• Size Designation: Must be B6 size class
• Thread Size: Must be M25 thread specification
• Series Compatibility: Must belong to HEAVYCON® B series
• Housing Material: Must be aluminum die cast construction
• Operating Temperature: Must support -40°C to 125°C range
• Regulatory Compliance: Must maintain RoHS compliance status

The substitute part 1412571 meets all mandatory substitution criteria while offering enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP69K versus IP65) and additional salt water resistance features. Both parts share identical connector type, size, thread specification, series designation, and operating temperature parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412571 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1460347. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the HEAVYCON® B series, including connector type, size class, thread specification, and operating temperature range.

The 1412571 offers enhanced environmental protection with IP66/IP69K rating compared to the IP65 rating of the 1460347, along with documented salt water resistance. The substitute part maintains full RoHS compliance (ROHS3 status) and carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support.

Dimensional variations exist between the two parts: the 1412571 measures 2.362" L x 1.732" W x 2.047" H compared to the 1460347 at 2.362" L x 1.693" W x 2.205" H. These dimensional differences are within the tolerance envelope for side entry hood connectors of identical size and thread specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412571 directly replace the 1460347 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector type (hood), style (side entry), size (B6), thread size (M25), series designation (HEAVYCON® B), housing material (aluminum die cast), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The 1412571 provides equivalent or superior functionality with enhanced ingress protection.

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

A: The primary difference is ingress protection rating. The 1460347 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant), while the 1412571 provides IP66/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). The 1412571 also includes documented salt water resistance.

Q: Are there dimensional compatibility concerns?

A: Minor dimensional differences exist. The 1412571 is slightly narrower (1.732" versus 1.693") and shorter (2.047" versus 2.205") than the 1460347. These variations are within standard tolerance ranges for B6 size hood connectors with M25 threads. Verify mounting clearances in your specific application.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 1460347 is obsolete, meaning Phoenix Contact no longer manufactures or supports this part. The 1412571 is active, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1460347 is RoHS Compliant, and the 1412571 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current RoHS requirements. The 1412571 also carries REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 1460347 was supplied in standard packaging. The 1412571 is available in bulk packaging, which may affect ordering quantities and logistics considerations.
