Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1679485 is determined by strict alignment with the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Connector Type: Insert without Contacts
• Gender: Male
• Number of Positions: 40+Ground
• Size: B16
• Termination Style: Crimp
• Voltage Rating: 250V
• Current Rating: 10A
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Series Compatibility: HEAVYCON® D40

The substitute part 1584415 meets all these criteria. Both components share identical electrical specifications, position configuration, and thermal operating range. The primary difference lies in housing material composition and contact type designation, which remain within acceptable substitution parameters for this connector category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1584415 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1679485. Both components maintain identical electrical performance specifications, mechanical dimensions, and thermal operating characteristics within the HEAVYCON® D40 connector series.

The 1584415 offers the advantage of active product status with current manufacturing support and availability. Both parts maintain equivalent RoHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability ratings, ensuring regulatory alignment for applications requiring these certifications.

The housing material difference between polycarbonate and polyamide does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility within the specified operating parameters. Contact type designations (CK 1.6-BR, ER versus CK 1.6-ED) represent internal manufacturing variations that do not alter functional substitution capability for this connector insert category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1584415 directly replace the 1679485 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (250V, 10A), position configuration (40+Ground), size (B16), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable within the HEAVYCON® D40 series.

Q: What is the significance of the housing material difference?

A: The 1679485 uses polycarbonate (PC) housing while the 1584415 uses polyamide (PA) nylon. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain equivalent performance within the specified operating temperature and voltage parameters.

Q: Does the contact type designation affect substitution?

A: No. The contact type designations (CK 1.6-BR, ER for 1679485 and CK 1.6-ED for 1584415) represent internal manufacturing specifications. Both maintain the same electrical and mechanical interface characteristics required for HEAVYCON® D40 series compatibility.

Q: Why is the 1679485 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence indicates that the 1679485 is no longer in active production. The 1584415 represents the current active equivalent, ensuring access to ongoing manufacturing support and supply chain availability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1679485 was supplied with unspecified packaging, while the 1584415 is supplied in bulk packaging. This difference does not affect component functionality or compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 1679485 and 1584415 are ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity levels, ensuring equivalent regulatory compliance for applications requiring these certifications.
