Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1642593 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood connector with side entry configuration
• Size Designation: B16 size class
• Thread Interface: M32 thread size for mechanical compatibility
• Ingress Protection: Minimum IP65 rating (dust tight, water resistant)
• Housing Material: Aluminum die cast construction
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series
• Operating Temperature: Must support -40°C to 100°C range
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance required

The substitute part 1412649 meets all critical substitution criteria while offering enhanced environmental protection and extended temperature capability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1412649 is the qualified substitute for obsolete part 1642593 based on the following engineering criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts share identical connector type, style, size designation (B16), and thread interface (M32), ensuring direct mechanical interchangeability in existing mounting configurations.

Environmental Protection Enhancement: Part 1412649 provides IP66/IP67 ingress protection compared to the IP65 rating of the original part, offering superior dust and water resistance without compromising the core application requirements.

Extended Operating Range: The substitute part supports -40°C to 125°C operation, exceeding the original -40°C to 100°C specification and providing additional thermal margin for demanding applications.

Regulatory Compliance: Part 1412649 maintains RoHS compliance (ROHS3 standard) and is classified as active product status, ensuring long-term availability and continued manufacturer support.

Dimensional Consistency: The substitute maintains identical length and height dimensions (94.60mm x 76.00mm), with a minimal width increase of 1mm (44.00mm vs 43.00mm), which does not impact standard installation practices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1412649 be used as a direct replacement for 1642593?

A: Yes. Both parts are HEAVYCON® B series hood connectors with identical B16 size and M32 thread specifications. The mechanical interface and mounting configuration are compatible. The substitute offers enhanced IP66/IP67 protection and extended temperature range.

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

A: Part 1642593 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). Part 1412649 provides IP66/IP67 protection (dust tight, water resistant, and waterproof). The higher rating indicates superior sealing performance in wet environments.

Q: Are there dimensional differences that affect installation?

A: The parts are nearly identical in dimensions. Length and height are the same (94.60mm x 76.00mm). Width differs by 1mm (43.00mm vs 44.00mm). This minimal difference does not affect standard mounting or panel cutout requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the product status change from Obsolete to Active?

A: Part 1642593 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. Part 1412649 is active production, ensuring continued availability, manufacturer support, and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Part 1642593 is RoHS Compliant. Part 1412649 is ROHS3 Compliant, representing the current RoHS standard revision.

Q: What is the temperature operating range difference?

A: Part 1642593 operates from -40°C to 100°C. Part 1412649 operates from -40°C to 125°C. The substitute provides 25°C additional upper temperature capability.
