Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1672916 is determined by the following core parameters that must remain consistent:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Base - Panel Mount 90°
• Style: Side Entry
• Size: D7
• Thread Size: PG11
• Series: HEAVYCON® D
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Lock Location: Locking Clip (1) on Base Bottom

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Ingress Protection: May be equal or superior (IP54 or higher)
• Housing Material: Zinc die cast or Aluminum die cast
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant
• Compliance Certifications: May include additional certifications (REACH Unaffected)

The substitute part 1419233 maintains all critical matching parameters while providing enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67) and improved environmental resistance through aluminum housing construction and salt water resistance features.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement Applications: Phoenix Contact 1419233 is the qualified substitute for 1672916. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications within the HEAVYCON® D series. The 1419233 is currently in active production status with higher inventory availability (1122 pcs vs. 704 pcs), ensuring supply chain continuity.

Compliance Considerations: The 1419233 meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, representing current regulatory standards. The original 1672916 meets RoHS compliance. Both components operate across the identical temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C) and maintain the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Environmental Performance Enhancement: The 1419233 provides superior ingress protection (IP66/IP67) compared to the 1672916 (IP54), with additional salt water resistance features. This enhancement is achieved through aluminum die cast housing construction. Applications requiring enhanced environmental protection benefit from this upgrade path.

Supply Chain Status: Given the obsolete status of 1672916, transition to 1419233 is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement to ensure long-term component availability and support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1419233 directly replace 1672916 in existing installations? A: Yes. Both components maintain identical connector type, style, size (D7), thread size (PG11), lock mechanism, and operating temperature specifications. The 1419233 is mechanically and electrically compatible as a direct substitute.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts? A: The 1419233 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67 versus IP54) and incorporates aluminum die cast housing with salt water resistance, compared to the zinc die cast construction of 1672916. Both maintain identical interface specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between 1672916 and 1419233? A: The 1419233 meets ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory requirements, while 1672916 meets RoHS compliance. Both share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8538.90.8180) classifications. The 1419233 includes REACH Unaffected status.

Q: Why is 1672916 marked as obsolete? A: The 1672916 is obsolete in the manufacturer's product line. The 1419233 represents the current active production equivalent within the HEAVYCON® D series, offering improved environmental protection and compliance with current standards.

Q: What packaging options are available? A: The 1672916 was supplied in standard packaging. The 1419233 is available in bulk packaging, suitable for production and inventory management requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical? A: The 1672916 dimensions are specified as 1.496" L x 1.102" W x 2.244" H (38.00mm x 28.00mm x 57.00mm). Dimension data for 1419233 is not provided in the specification. Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through identical connector type, style, and thread specifications.

Q: Can 1419233 be used in applications where IP54 protection is sufficient? A: Yes. The 1419233 provides IP66/IP67 protection, which exceeds IP54 requirements. Applications specified for IP54 protection operate within the performance envelope of the 1419233.
