Phoenix Contact 1647129 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1647129 is a heavy duty connector hood designed for side entry applications with M32 thread size, classified within the HEAVYCON® B series. This component provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across an extended temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The part is currently listed as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives that maintain compatibility with existing installations and new designs requiring equivalent performance characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1647129 is based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood configuration with side entry orientation
• Thread Size: M32 mechanical interface
• Ingress Protection: IP65 rating (dust tight, water resistant)
• Housing Material & Construction: Aluminum die cast with powder coating
• Physical Dimensions: 73.00mm L × 43.00mm W × 72.00mm H
• Lock Mechanism: Locking clip (2) on hood
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating

The Weidmüller 1787250000 satisfies all substitution criteria within the heavy duty connector category, maintaining mechanical and electrical compatibility through identical dimensional specifications and equivalent environmental protection ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1787250000 is the designated equivalent substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1647129. Selection is based on:

• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical M32 thread interface and physical envelope ensure direct mechanical fit
• Environmental Protection: Both components maintain IP65 ingress protection for dust and water resistance in industrial applications
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 rating, supporting unrestricted moisture handling
• Product Availability: The Weidmüller part maintains active product status with current manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence of the Phoenix Contact component
• Series Equivalence: While manufactured under different series designations (HEAVYCON® B versus RockStar®), both components meet identical functional and dimensional specifications for heavy duty connector hood applications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 1787250000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 1647129 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical dimensions (73.00mm × 43.00mm × 72.00mm), M32 thread size, and IP65 ingress protection rating. The identical locking clip configuration and housing material ensure direct mechanical and functional compatibility.

Q: Are there any differences in operating temperature specifications between these parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1647129 specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The Weidmüller 1787250000 does not provide an explicit operating temperature specification in the available data. Verification of temperature compatibility with the Weidmüller manufacturer is necessary for applications requiring operation outside standard industrial temperature ranges.

Q: What is the significance of the different series names (HEAVYCON® B versus RockStar®)?

A: Series designations reflect manufacturer branding and internal product line organization. These designations do not affect substitution eligibility when all critical parameters—connector type, style, thread size, dimensions, ingress protection, and material specifications—are identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the Phoenix Contact 1647129 and Weidmüller 1787250000 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, supporting use in regulated environments requiring hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The Weidmüller 1787250000 is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging configuration should be verified against procurement requirements for your specific application.
