Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1548422 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Accessory Type: Must be an actuator box for circular connector applications
• Material Composition: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) ensures chemical resistance and mechanical durability
• Environmental Protection: Dust tight and waterproof rating required for equivalent protection
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL rating must match or exceed the original specification
• Connector Interface: Compatibility with circular connector systems

The substitute part 1156004 meets these core substitution criteria, though with a configuration variation in connector opening count.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1156004 is an active production substitute for the obsolete 1548422. Both components share identical material composition, environmental protection ratings, and regulatory compliance certifications. The primary distinction is the connector opening configuration: the 1156004 provides 8 openings compared to the original 6 openings, along with a color variation from green to black.

Selection of the 1156004 is supported by its active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The increased connector opening capacity provides expanded integration flexibility for multi-connector applications while maintaining equivalent environmental sealing and material properties.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1156004 directly replace the 1548422 in existing installations?

A: Both components share identical material (PBT), environmental protection (dust tight, waterproof), and regulatory compliance (RoHS, MSL 1). The primary consideration is the connector opening count difference: 8 openings versus 6 openings. Physical mounting compatibility and connector interface requirements must be verified for your specific application.

Q: What is the significance of the color difference between the two parts?

A: The color variation from green to black is a cosmetic and identification feature. It does not affect functional performance, environmental protection, or electrical characteristics of the actuator box.

Q: Why is the 1548422 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The 1156004 represents the current active alternative within the Phoenix Contact product line for sensor actuator box applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 1548422 and 1156004 are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 1548422 original specification does not specify packaging details. The 1156004 substitute is available in bulk packaging format.
