Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1548370 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Accessory Type: Must be Actuator Box
• Connector Openings: Must provide 8 connector openings
• Environmental Protection: Must maintain Dust Tight and Waterproof ratings
• Material Composition: Must be Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Regulatory Compliance: Must be RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity: Must maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating
• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact (same manufacturer ensures design compatibility)

The substitute part 1156004 meets all these criteria, with the primary difference being color (Black instead of Green) and product status (Active instead of Obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1156004 is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 1548370. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 8 connector openings, dust-tight and waterproof protection, PBT material construction, and full RoHS compliance with MSL 1 rating.

The 1156004 is currently in active production status, ensuring availability for new orders and ongoing system support. The color difference (Black versus Green) is a cosmetic variation that does not affect functional performance or compatibility with circular connector systems.

For applications where the original green color is a system requirement, color compatibility should be evaluated against the specific installation documentation. In all other cases, the 1156004 provides equivalent performance with the advantage of active product status and current manufacturing support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
