Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 1424652 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 1508200 based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Matching Parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle, Female Sockets
• Number of positions: 5
• Shell size: M12-5
• Termination method: Spring-Cage
• Orientation: A
• Current rating: 4A
• Voltage rating: Compatible (48VAC/60VDC vs. 60V)
• Ingress protection: Enhanced (IP65/IP67 vs. IP65)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Shell material and finish: Zinc die-cast with nickel plating
• Contact material and finish: Copper tin with gold plating
• Backshell material: Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
• Cable opening: 0.157" ~ 0.315" (4.00mm ~ 8.00mm)
• RoHS compliance: Maintained

Distinguishing Difference: The 1424652 features push-twist fastening instead of threaded fastening, representing the primary design evolution in this product line. The substitute also provides enhanced IP67 waterproof rating and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1424652 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 1508200. Selection of the 1424652 is supported by:

• Product Status Alignment: The 1424652 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete 1508200.
• Electrical Compatibility: Both components maintain identical current (4A) and compatible voltage ratings (60V specification met by 60VDC rating on substitute).
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical M12-5 shell size, 5-position configuration, and spring-cage termination ensure physical and functional interchangeability.
• Environmental Performance: Enhanced IP67 rating on the 1424652 provides superior ingress protection while maintaining the same operating temperature range.
• Regulatory Compliance: Both components meet RoHS requirements (ROHS3 on substitute represents current compliance standard) and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.
• Packaging Consideration: The 1424652 is available in bulk packaging with higher inventory levels (2753 pcs vs. 1021 pcs), supporting procurement efficiency.

The primary design difference—push-twist fastening versus threaded fastening—represents a functional improvement in the product line evolution and does not compromise compatibility in applications where the original 1508200 was specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1424652 directly replace the 1508200 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 1424652 maintains identical electrical ratings (4A, 60V), mechanical configuration (M12-5, 5-position, spring-cage termination), and environmental specifications (-40°C ~ 85°C operating range, IP65 minimum protection). The fastening mechanism change from threaded to push-twist represents a design improvement and does not affect connector compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the fastening type difference?

A: The 1508200 uses threaded fastening, while the 1424652 uses push-twist fastening. Both methods provide secure mechanical connection. The push-twist design in the 1424652 reflects current product line standards and offers simplified assembly procedures.

Q: Does the enhanced IP67 rating on the 1424652 affect compatibility?

A: No. The 1424652's IP67 rating (waterproof) exceeds the 1508200's IP65 rating (water resistant). This enhancement provides superior environmental protection and maintains backward compatibility with applications originally specified for IP65.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The 1508200 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 1424652 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both components share identical MSL rating (1 - Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity concerns during storage or handling.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both components?

A: Both the 1508200 and 1424652 are RoHS compliant (the 1424652 meets the current ROHS3 standard), classified under ECCN EAR99, and share the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4020). Both components carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Q: Why is the 1508200 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1508200 has been superseded by the 1424652 in Phoenix Contact's product line. The 1424652 represents the current active equivalent with enhanced specifications and improved fastening technology while maintaining full functional compatibility.
