Phoenix Contact 1604900 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1604900 is a Heavy Duty Connector hood coupling assembly designed for bottom entry M20 D25 applications. This component provides cable-to-cable connectivity with IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) in industrial environments. The part operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is constructed from die-cast aluminum with powder coating.

The 1604900 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system compatibility and ensure continued availability for replacement, repair, and new installations where this connector type is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1604900 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood - Coupling, Bottom Entry configuration
• Size Designation: D25 form factor
• Thread Interface: M20 coupling thread
• Lock Mechanism: Locking Clip (1) on Hood Top
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum, die-cast
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® D series
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS Compliant, ECCN EAR99

The substitute part 1604900 must maintain these core mechanical and electrical parameters to ensure direct compatibility in existing installations and new designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1424386 is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute for the obsolete 1604900. Both components share identical connector type, size designation, thread interface, and locking mechanism within the HEAVYCON® D series.

The 1424386 is currently in active production status with 1007 units in stock, providing supply continuity for applications previously specified with the 1604900. The substitute maintains the same operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C) and aluminum die-cast housing construction.

The 1424386 provides enhanced ingress protection at IP66/IP67 (waterproof) compared to the 1604900's IP65 rating, with additional salt water resistance. This represents an improvement in environmental sealing capability. Dimensional variations exist: the 1424386 measures 80.00mm L x 30.00mm W x 52.00mm H versus the 1604900's 79.50mm L x 29.50mm W x 57.00mm H. These minor dimensional differences do not affect mechanical compatibility in standard D25 M20 mounting configurations.

For applications requiring the original IP65 specification, the 1424386's enhanced IP66/IP67 protection provides equivalent or superior performance. Selection of the 1424386 is appropriate for direct replacement in new designs and retrofit applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1424386 directly replace the 1604900 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type (Hood - Coupling), style (Bottom Entry), size (D25), thread interface (M20), and locking mechanism (Locking Clip on Hood Top). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the difference in ingress protection between these parts?

A: The 1604900 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1424386 provides IP66/IP67 protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). The 1424386 offers enhanced environmental sealing and includes salt water resistance.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between the 1604900 and 1424386?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The 1424386 is 80.00mm L x 30.00mm W x 52.00mm H compared to the 1604900's 79.50mm L x 29.50mm W x 57.00mm H. These differences do not affect standard D25 M20 mounting compatibility.

Q: Why is the 1604900 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1604900 has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. The 1424386 is the active production equivalent, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

A: Both the 1604900 and 1424386 operate across -40°C to 125°C, maintaining consistent thermal performance across industrial applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: The 1604900 is confirmed RoHS Compliant. RoHS compliance status for the 1424386 is not specified in the provided data.

Q: What packaging is available for the 1424386?

A: The 1424386 is supplied in Bulk packaging with 1007 units currently in stock.
