Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Two direct manufacturer substitutes are available for the Phoenix Contact 1503085. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following parameters:

• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility)
• Product Category: Sensors, Transducers (functional equivalence)
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant (regulatory alignment)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (environmental tolerance match)
• ECCN and HTSUS codes: Identical classification (trade compliance)
• Product Status: Active (availability and ongoing support)

Both substitute parts meet these core substitution criteria and represent active alternatives to the obsolete 1503085.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts 1453096 and 1516603 are qualified replacements for the obsolete 1503085 based on regulatory compliance and product status alignment. All three parts maintain identical RoHS compliance, ECCN classification, and HTSUS coding, confirming functional and regulatory equivalence within the sensor actuator box category.

The 1453096 is available in active production status with 728 units in stock, featuring a polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) construction, M12 shell size, and specifications for dust-tight and waterproof operation with four connector openings.

The 1516603 is available in active production status with 1000 units in stock, configured with M12 connector specifications, wire lead termination, and a 10-meter cable length.

Selection between these substitutes should be based on specific application requirements regarding connector configuration, material composition, and cable specifications as defined in your system design documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
