Phoenix Contact 1503454 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1503454 is a sensor/actuator box with M8 connector slots, designed for use with circular connectors in industrial automation and sensing applications. This component features an 8-connector opening configuration with dust-tight and waterproof protection, constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) material.

The 1503454 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system compatibility and ensure continued availability for replacement, repair, and new installations where this connector box is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Phoenix Contact 1503454 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact (same manufacturer ensures design consistency and quality standards)
• Shell Size - Insert: M8 (connector interface standard)
• Material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) (ensures equivalent environmental resistance and mechanical properties)
• Accessory Type: Actuator Box (functional category)
• Environmental Protection: Dust Tight, Waterproof (protection rating requirements)
• RoHS Compliance: RoHS Compliant (regulatory requirement)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (handling and storage compatibility)

The substitute part 1197620 shares the core material, manufacturer, shell size, environmental protection features, and compliance certifications. The primary difference is the connector opening count (4 openings versus 8 openings), which represents a reduced-capacity variant suitable for applications requiring fewer connector positions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1197620 is an active product offering from the same manufacturer with equivalent material composition, environmental protection ratings, and regulatory compliance. The 1197620 is suitable as a substitute where system design accommodates a 4-connector opening configuration instead of the 8-opening design of the 1503454.

Selection between these parts depends on the specific application requirement for connector positions. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring equivalent handling and storage conditions. The transition from obsolete to active product status makes the 1197620 the preferred choice for new designs and ongoing procurement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1197620 directly replace the 1503454 in existing installations?

A: Direct replacement is possible only if the application requires four or fewer connector openings. The 1197620 provides the same M8 connector interface, material properties, and environmental protection. If the original design utilizes all eight connector positions, the 1197620 will not accommodate the full connector count.

Q: Are there material or environmental protection differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts use polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) material and provide identical dust-tight and waterproof protection ratings. Moisture sensitivity levels are equivalent at MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What is the significance of the product status change from obsolete to active?

A: The 1503454 is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer manufactured or supported by Phoenix Contact. The 1197620 is an active product with current manufacturing and availability. For new installations and long-term procurement planning, the active product status of the 1197620 provides supply chain continuity.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1503454 and 1197620 are RoHS compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the primary technical difference between these actuator boxes?

A: The primary difference is the number of connector openings: the 1503454 provides eight openings, while the 1197620 provides four openings. All other specifications, including connector interface size (M8), material composition, and environmental protection features, are equivalent.
