Phoenix Contact 1604913 Heavy Duty Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1604913 is a hood-style side entry connector in the HEAVYCON® D series, designed for D50 applications with M25 thread mounting. This component provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across -40°C to 125°C. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing in legacy installations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1604913 is determined by strict alignment of core mechanical and electrical parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector type (Hood)
• Style (Side Entry)
• Size designation (D50)
• Thread size (M25)
• Lock mechanism (Locking Clip on Base Bottom)
• Housing material (Aluminum, Die Cast)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C)
• Series compatibility (HEAVYCON® D)

The substitute part 1424403 maintains all critical mechanical interfaces and environmental specifications. The enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67 versus IP65) and salt water resistance represent functional improvements that do not compromise backward compatibility in D50/M25 applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1424403 is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently using the obsolete 1604913. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces (D50 size, M25 thread, side entry configuration) and thermal operating range (-40°C to 125°C).

The 1424403 is an active product with current manufacturing support, eliminating supply chain risk associated with obsolete component sourcing. The enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67 versus IP65) and documented salt water resistance provide environmental performance improvements suitable for replacement in existing installations without mechanical or electrical redesign.

Both parts carry EAR99 export classification and comply with applicable regulatory standards for heavy duty connector applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1424403 directly replace the 1604913 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical D50 size designation, M25 thread mounting, side entry configuration, and locking clip placement. Mechanical fit and electrical interface compatibility are maintained. The 1424403 operates across the same temperature range (-40°C to 125°C).

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

A: The 1604913 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1424403 provides IP66/IP67 protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). IP66/IP67 represents enhanced environmental sealing suitable for more demanding moisture exposure conditions.

Q: Why is the 1604913 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects Phoenix Contact's manufacturing lifecycle decisions. The 1424403 represents the current active product line for this connector category and should be specified for new designs and component replacement.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1604913 data does not specify packaging format. The 1424403 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specification.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: The 1604913 is explicitly RoHS compliant. RoHS status for the 1424403 is not specified in the provided technical data. Confirm compliance requirements with Phoenix Contact technical documentation or your quality assurance department.
