Phoenix Contact 1604753 Heavy Duty Connector Base - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1604753 is a Heavy Duty Connector base unit designed for box mount, side entry applications with M20 thread size in the HEAVYCON® B series. This connector provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for system maintenance, repair, and replacement applications where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the Phoenix Contact 1604753 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be Base - Box Mount with Side Entry configuration
• Size Designation: Must be B10 to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Thread Size: Must be M20 for proper mounting interface
• Lock Mechanism: Must feature Locking Clip (2) on Base Bottom for secure installation
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -40°C to 125°C minimum
• Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast construction required for structural integrity
• RoHS Compliance: Must maintain RoHS Compliant status for regulatory alignment

The Phoenix Contact 1412835 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While it offers enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and additional features (salt water resistance), it maintains all critical mechanical and electrical compatibility requirements with identical connector type, size, thread size, lock mechanism, operating temperature range, housing material, and RoHS compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412835 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 1604753. Selection should be based on the following engineering considerations:

Product Status: The 1604753 is obsolete, while the 1412835 is active and currently in production. This ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity for future procurement and replacement needs.

Compliance & Certifications: Both parts maintain RoHS Compliant status and identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8538.90.8180) classifications, ensuring regulatory alignment and export compliance.

Mechanical Compatibility: The 1412835 maintains identical connector type, size (B10), thread size (M20), and locking mechanism, ensuring direct mechanical interchangeability in existing installations.

Environmental Performance: While the 1412835 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the original IP65 rating, this represents an improvement in environmental sealing capability without compromising compatibility. The addition of salt water resistance extends operational capability in corrosive environments.

Thermal Performance: Both parts support the identical operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, ensuring thermal compatibility across all specified applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1412835 be used as a direct replacement for the 1604753?

A: Yes. The 1412835 maintains all critical mechanical and electrical compatibility parameters: identical connector type (Base - Box Mount), style (Side Entry), size (B10), thread size (M20), locking mechanism, operating temperature range, and housing material. Both parts are RoHS Compliant with matching regulatory classifications.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and ingress protection rating. The 1604753 is obsolete with IP65 protection, while the 1412835 is active with enhanced IP66/IP67/IP69K protection and salt water resistance. The 1412835 also belongs to the newer HEAVYCON® EVO series compared to the HEAVYCON® B series of the original part.

Q: Does the enhanced ingress protection of the 1412835 affect compatibility?

A: No. Enhanced ingress protection represents an improvement in environmental sealing capability and does not compromise mechanical or electrical compatibility. The 1412835 can be used in any application where the 1604753 was specified.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1604753 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 1412835 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both parts are available in new original condition with substantial inventory levels.

Q: What is the dimensional difference between these connectors?

A: The 1604753 measures 3.661" L x 2.047" W x 2.047" H (93.00mm x 52.00mm x 52.00mm), while the 1412835 measures 3.661" L x 2.047" W x 2.126" H (93.00mm x 52.00mm x 54.00mm). The height difference of 0.079" (2.00mm) is minimal and does not affect mounting compatibility in standard box mount applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS Compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1604753 and 1412835 are RoHS Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited), ensuring compliance with environmental and regulatory requirements.
