Phoenix Contact 1642810 Hood Connector Side Entry M32 B24 - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1642810 is a heavy-duty hood connector with side entry configuration, M32 thread size, and B24 form factor. This connector provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 100°C. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where this connector type is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1642810 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood connector with side entry configuration
• Size Designation: Must be B24 form factor
• Thread Size: Must be M32
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series
• Lock Mechanism: Locking clip (2) on base bottom
• Housing Material: Aluminum, die cast construction
• Ingress Protection: Minimum IP65 rating (equal or higher protection level acceptable)
• Operating Temperature: Must support -40°C minimum; higher maximum temperature acceptable
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant

The substitute part 1412750 maintains all critical mechanical and electrical parameters while providing enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and extended operating temperature range (up to 125°C). Both parts share identical connector type, style, size, thread size, series designation, and locking mechanism, making them functionally interchangeable within the HEAVYCON® B platform.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412750 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 1642810. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical interfaces (M32 thread, B24 size, side entry hood configuration) and are part of the same HEAVYCON® B series platform.

The 1412750 offers technical advantages over the original part: enhanced ingress protection rating (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65) and extended maximum operating temperature (125°C versus 100°C). These improvements do not compromise compatibility and provide additional environmental protection margins for applications requiring higher reliability in harsh conditions.

Both parts are RoHS compliant and manufactured from aluminum die-cast housing. The 1412750 is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete 1642810.

For applications currently using the 1642810, direct substitution with 1412750 is supported without modification to mounting interfaces or electrical connections.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412750 directly replace the 1642810 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector type (hood), style (side entry), size (B24), thread size (M32), locking mechanism (clip-based), and housing material (aluminum die-cast). The mechanical interface is fully compatible.

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

A: The 1642810 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412750 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, waterproof). The higher rating in 1412750 offers enhanced sealing against water ingress and high-pressure jets, making it suitable for more demanding environmental conditions.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these connectors?

A: The connectors are nearly identical in dimensions. The 1642810 measures 120.00mm L x 43.00mm W x 76.00mm H. The 1412750 measures 120.00mm L x 44.00mm W x 76.00mm H. The 1mm width difference does not affect mounting compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: Why is the 1642810 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1642810 has been superseded by the 1412750 in Phoenix Contact's product line. The 1412750 provides equivalent functionality with enhanced environmental protection and extended temperature range, making it the current production standard for this connector configuration.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1642810 and 1412750 are RoHS compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the operating temperature difference?

A: The 1642810 operates from -40°C to 100°C. The 1412750 operates from -40°C to 125°C. The extended upper temperature limit in 1412750 provides additional thermal margin for high-temperature applications.
