Phoenix Contact 1604928 Heavy Duty Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1604928 is a base-mount side entry heavy duty connector from the HEAVYCON® HV series, designed for M25 thread applications with IP65 ingress protection. This connector features a gray aluminum die-cast housing with powder coating and operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1604928 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Base-mount side entry configuration must be maintained
• Thread Size: M25 thread compatibility is mandatory for mechanical fit
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C operational envelope
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die-cast housing for structural and thermal properties
• RoHS Compliance: Regulatory requirement for component selection
• Ingress Protection: IP65 minimum rating for environmental sealing

The substitute part 1412845 maintains these core parameters while offering enhanced specifications in the HEAVYCON® EVO series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412845 serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 1604928. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces (M25 thread, side entry configuration, base-mount design) and thermal operating specifications. The 1412845 represents an active product within the HEAVYCON® EVO series and maintains full RoHS compliance.

The substitute provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67 versus IP65), additional features including feed-through capability and salt water resistance, and is currently in active production with confirmed inventory availability. The dimensional envelope remains substantially equivalent, with negligible height variation (54.60mm versus 52.00mm).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412845 directly replace the 1604928 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical M25 thread sizing, side entry configuration, base-mount design, and locking clip placement. The mechanical and electrical interfaces are compatible.

Q: What are the key differences between these connectors?

A: The primary differences are product status (1604928 is obsolete; 1412845 is active), ingress protection rating (IP65 versus IP66/IP67), and series designation (HEAVYCON® HV versus HEAVYCON® EVO). The 1412845 includes additional features such as feed-through capability and salt water resistance.

Q: Are there any thermal or compliance concerns with substitution?

A: No. Both connectors operate across the identical temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) and maintain RoHS compliance. No thermal or regulatory limitations apply to substitution.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 1604928 was supplied in standard packaging, while the 1412845 is available in bulk packaging. This does not affect component functionality or compatibility.

Q: Why should I transition from the 1604928 to the 1412845?

A: The 1604928 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The 1412845 is the active equivalent with enhanced environmental protection ratings and is currently in production with confirmed inventory availability.
