Phoenix Contact 1604890 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1604890 is a Heavy Duty Connector Hood designed for 90° side entry applications with M20 thread size and D7 configuration. This component provides IP54 ingress protection (dust protected, water resistant) and operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1604890 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector type (Hood - 90°)
• Connection style (Side Entry)
• Size designation (D7)
• Thread size (M20)
• Lock mechanism (Locking Clip on Base Bottom)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C)
• Housing material (Polyamide/Nylon)

The Phoenix Contact 1419257 qualifies as a substitute component. While it maintains identical core mechanical and electrical specifications, it provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66 versus IP54) and is classified as an active product with current manufacturing support. The dimensional increase (54.50mm height versus 48.00mm) and housing color change (black versus gray) represent the primary physical differences and must be evaluated within the context of specific installation requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1419257 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 1604890 component. Selection of the 1419257 is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The 1419257 maintains active manufacturing status with current production support, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The 1604890 is obsolete and subject to inventory depletion.

Compliance Certification: Both components maintain RoHS compliance. The 1419257 carries ROHS3 certification, representing current regulatory alignment. The 1419257 additionally carries REACH Unaffected status, confirming compliance with European chemical regulations.

Functional Equivalence: Core mechanical and electrical parameters remain identical between the two components, including connector type, size designation, thread size, lock mechanism, and operating temperature range.

Enhanced Protection: The 1419257 provides IP66 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) compared to the IP54 rating of the 1604890. This represents an improvement in environmental sealing capability and is suitable for applications requiring higher protection levels.

Physical Considerations: The 1419257 exhibits a 6.50mm increase in height (54.50mm versus 48.00mm) and a housing color change from gray to black. These differences must be evaluated within specific installation space constraints and visual identification requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1419257 directly replace the 1604890 in existing installations?

A: The 1419257 maintains mechanical and electrical compatibility with the 1604890 across all core parameters: connector type, size, thread size, and lock mechanism. Physical space availability must be confirmed due to the 6.50mm height increase. Housing color change from gray to black should be noted for visual identification purposes.

Q: What is the significance of the IP66 rating on the 1419257 compared to the IP54 rating on the 1604890?

A: IP54 provides dust protection and water resistance. IP66 provides dust-tight sealing and water resistance. The 1419257 offers enhanced environmental protection suitable for applications with higher contamination or moisture exposure requirements. This represents a functional improvement and does not restrict compatibility with applications originally specified for IP54 protection.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The 1604890 is supplied in standard packaging. The 1419257 is supplied in bulk packaging. Procurement quantities and handling procedures may differ accordingly.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the 1419257?

A: The 1419257 carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected certifications, confirming compliance with current European environmental and chemical regulations. Both components carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8538.90.8180 HTSUS code.

Q: Is the operating temperature range identical between the two components?

A: Yes. Both the 1604890 and 1419257 operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. No thermal performance differences exist between the components.
