Phoenix Contact 1642823 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1642823 is a heavy duty connector hood designed for top entry applications with M40 thread size in the HEAVYCON® B series. 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 currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1642823 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Must be hood connector with top entry configuration
• Size Designation: Must be B24 size class
• Thread Size: Must be M40 for mechanical compatibility
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® B series maintains form, fit, and function equivalence
• Ingress Protection: Substitute must meet or exceed IP65 rating
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die cast construction ensures mechanical durability
• Temperature Operating Range: Substitute must support minimum -40°C to 100°C range
• RoHS Compliance: All substitutes must maintain RoHS compliance status

The Phoenix Contact 1642099 satisfies all substitution criteria while offering enhanced environmental protection ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412099 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 1642823. Both components share identical mechanical form factors (B24 size, M40 thread, top entry hood configuration) and are manufactured from the same housing material (aluminum die cast). The 1412099 maintains full RoHS compliance and is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The 1412099 provides enhanced environmental protection with IP66/IP67/IP69K ratings compared to the IP65 rating of the original part, along with an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 100°C). These improvements represent a direct upgrade path for applications requiring the same mechanical interface and connector class.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412099 be used as a direct replacement for the 1642823?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type (hood), style (top entry), size designation (B24), thread size (M40), locking mechanism, and housing material. The 1412099 meets all mechanical and electrical compatibility requirements for direct substitution.

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

A: The 1642823 provides IP65 protection (dust tight, water resistant). The 1412099 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection (dust tight, water resistant, and waterproof). The higher rating indicates enhanced sealing performance in high-pressure water jet and submersion environments.

Q: Are there temperature range differences?

A: The 1642823 operates from -40°C to 100°C. The 1412099 extends this range to -40°C to 125°C, providing greater thermal headroom for high-temperature applications.

Q: Does the 1412099 have the same physical dimensions?

A: Both parts share the same length (120mm) and height (76mm). The width differs slightly: 1642823 is 43mm, while 1412099 is 44mm. This 1mm difference does not affect mechanical mounting or form factor compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1642823 and 1412099 are RoHS compliant and carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8538.90.8180) classifications.

Q: Why is the original part obsolete?

A: The 1642823 is obsolete, making the 1412099 the active production equivalent. The 1412099 provides superior environmental protection and extended temperature range while maintaining identical mechanical interfaces.
