Phoenix Contact 1663323 Female Module 12 Position Crimp Connector

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1663323 is a female module without contacts designed for 12-position crimp termination applications within the HEAVYCON® M series. This component functions as a connector housing assembly rated for 600V operation with polycarbonate construction and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active alternative components that maintain functional and electrical compatibility for ongoing system support and new designs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1663323 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Connector Type: Module without Contacts (housing assembly only)
• Gender: Female
• Number of Positions: 12
• Termination Style: Crimp
• Contact Type: CK 1.6-ED
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® M
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Housing Material: Polycarbonate (PC)
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

The substitute part 1414355 maintains all critical functional parameters while offering an active product status with current manufacturing support. Voltage rating differences (600V vs. 250V) and current rating specifications reflect design variations within the same connector family and do not preclude substitution in applications where the lower voltage rating is acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1414355 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 1663323 based on maintained mechanical and electrical compatibility within the HEAVYCON® M connector family. Both components share identical connector architecture, position count, termination methodology, and contact specifications.

The 1414355 offers the advantage of active product status with current manufacturing availability and ROHS3 compliance certification, providing enhanced regulatory alignment for new designs and ongoing procurement. The voltage rating reduction from 600V to 250V requires verification against application requirements; however, this parameter does not affect mechanical interchangeability or contact interface compatibility.

The substitute part is packaged in bulk format and maintains the same operating temperature range, flammability rating, and moisture sensitivity classification as the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1414355 be used as a direct replacement for the 1663323?

A: Yes, the 1414355 functions as a direct mechanical and electrical substitute. Both components are female 12-position crimp modules within the HEAVYCON® M series with identical contact types and operating temperature ranges. Verify that the 250V rating of the 1414355 meets your application voltage requirements.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The main differences are product status (1663323 is obsolete; 1414355 is active), voltage rating (600V vs. 250V), current rating specification (not specified vs. 16A), and RoHS certification level (RoHS Compliant vs. ROHS3 Compliant). The 1414355 includes a gray color specification not listed for the original part.

Q: Are the contact types compatible?

A: Yes, both parts use the CK 1.6-ED contact type, ensuring full compatibility with existing contact assemblies and mating connectors.

Q: Does packaging format affect substitution?

A: The 1414355 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the 1663323 packaging is not specified. This affects procurement and handling but does not impact functional or electrical compatibility.

Q: Is the 1414355 suitable for high-voltage applications?

A: The 1414355 is rated for 250V maximum. Applications requiring 600V operation must verify alternative solutions or confirm that 250V rating is acceptable for the intended use.
