Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1683633 is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Accessory Type: Must be Actuator Box for circular connector applications
  • Environmental Protection: Dust-tight and waterproof capabilities required
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited) for unrestricted storage and handling
  • Regulatory Compliance: RoHS and REACH compliance status
  • Material Composition: Determines mechanical durability and environmental resistance
  • Connector Opening Configuration: Physical accommodation of connector interfaces

The substitute part 1175447 maintains functional equivalence through matching environmental protection features, moisture sensitivity classification, and regulatory compliance, while differing in connector opening count, material composition, and product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1175447 serves as an active substitute for the obsolete 1683633. Both components maintain identical environmental protection ratings (dust-tight, waterproof) and moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1), ensuring equivalent performance in sealed applications.

Key selection considerations:

  • Product Status: The 1175447 is active production, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete 1683633
  • Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet RoHS requirements; the 1683633 specifically certifies ROHS3 compliance while the 1175447 maintains general RoHS compliance
  • Material Difference: The 1175447 uses polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) versus polyamide in the 1683633, offering enhanced chemical and thermal resistance
  • Connector Configuration: The 1175447 provides 8 connector openings versus 4 in the 1683633, requiring mechanical integration assessment for specific applications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1175447 directly replace the 1683633 in existing assemblies?

A: Functional substitution is supported through matching environmental protection and moisture sensitivity ratings. Physical integration requires verification of connector opening count compatibility, as the 1175447 provides 8 openings versus 4 in the original part.

Q: What are the material implications of switching from polyamide to PBT?

A: Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) provides enhanced chemical resistance and thermal stability compared to polyamide. This material change does not compromise environmental protection or regulatory compliance for circular connector applications.

Q: Are there packaging considerations for procurement?

A: The 1683633 uses standard packaging while the 1175447 is supplied in bulk packaging. Procurement quantities and handling procedures should align with bulk packaging specifications.

Q: Does the color difference affect functional compatibility?

A: Color is a cosmetic parameter. The green (1683633) to black (1175447) change does not impact electrical or mechanical function in sealed actuator box applications.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 versus general RoHS compliance?

A: ROHS3 represents the current regulatory iteration with updated substance restrictions. Both compliance levels are acceptable for this component category; ROHS3 certification provides alignment with current regulatory standards.
