Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1690037 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood configuration with top entry design
• Size & Thread Specification: B10 size with M25 thread
• Ingress Protection Rating: IP66/IP68/IP69K classification
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C capability
• Housing Material & Finish: Aluminum die cast with powder coating
• Environmental Resistance: Salt water resistance feature
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant status

The substitute part 1420908 maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters, with the exception of minor dimensional variation in height and product status transition from obsolete to active.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1420908 serves as the direct active equivalent to the obsolete 1690037 model. Both components are manufactured by Phoenix Contact within the HEAVYCON-ADVANCE® series and maintain identical functional specifications for heavy duty connector hood applications.

Selection of part 1420908 is supported by:

• Active product status ensuring ongoing manufacturer support and availability
• Identical ingress protection rating (IP66/IP68/IP69K) for equivalent environmental performance
• Matching operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) for thermal compatibility
• RoHS compliance certification for regulatory alignment
• Identical connector configuration (B10 size, M25 thread, top entry hood style)
• Equivalent housing material and salt water resistance properties

The minor height dimension reduction (6.3mm) does not affect functional compatibility within the B10/M25 hood connector specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1420908 directly replace the obsolete 1690037 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical connector type, size, thread specification, ingress protection rating, and operating temperature range. The dimensional height difference of 6.3mm is within the tolerance of the B10/M25 hood connector specification and does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 1690037 is classified as obsolete. The 1420908 is the active equivalent from Phoenix Contact, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support.

Q: Are there differences in environmental performance between these parts?

A: No. Both parts deliver identical IP66/IP68/IP69K ingress protection and salt water resistance. Operating temperature ranges are identical at -40°C to 125°C.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: The 1690037 is supplied with standard packaging, while the 1420908 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect component performance or compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1690037 and 1420908 are RoHS compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level) difference?

A: The 1690037 lists MSL as not applicable, while the 1420908 specifies MSL 1 (unlimited). This indicates the 1420908 has no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage and handling, providing operational flexibility.
