• Termination Style: Crimp (identical termination method)
• Voltage Rating: 500V (identical electrical rating)
• Current Rating: 16A (identical current capacity)
• Contact Type: CK 2.5-ED (identical contact specification)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C (identical thermal range)
• Housing Material: Polycarbonate (PC) (identical material)
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (identical safety rating)
• ECCN: EAR99 (identical export classification)
• HTSUS Code: 8536.69.8000 (identical tariff classification)

Distinguishing Feature: The substitute part 1584716 includes a ground position (18+Ground) compared to the standard 18 positions of the original part, and maintains active product status with ROHS3 compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1584716 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1687464. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and thermal specifications within the HEAVYCON® BB 18 series. The substitute maintains full compliance with current RoHS3 standards and UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. The addition of a ground position in the substitute part provides enhanced grounding capability while maintaining backward compatibility with the original 18-position configuration. The active product status of 1584716 ensures ongoing availability and manufacturer support for new procurements and system replacements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1584716 directly replace the 1687464 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (500V, 16A), mechanical dimensions (B10 size), termination method (crimp), contact specifications (CK 2.5-ED), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The 1584716 includes an additional ground position, which does not prevent its use in standard 18-position applications.

Q: What is the significance of the 18+Ground position in the substitute part?

A: The 18+Ground configuration provides a dedicated ground connection position in addition to the 18 standard signal positions. This feature enhances system grounding architecture without affecting compatibility with applications requiring only the standard 18 positions.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The original 1687464 carries RoHS Compliant status, while the substitute 1584716 carries ROHS3 Compliant status, representing a more current compliance standard. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The original part 1687464 has no specified packaging designation, while the substitute 1584716 is supplied in bulk packaging. This difference affects procurement and inventory management but does not impact functional performance.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both the 1687464 and 1584716 are manufactured by Phoenix Contact, ensuring design consistency and compatibility within the HEAVYCON® BB 18 series.
