Phoenix Contact 1695401 Sensor Actuator Box - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1695401 is a sensor actuator box designed for use with circular connectors in M12 configurations. This component serves as an accessory housing for sensor and transducer applications requiring dust-tight and waterproof protection. The 1695401 is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1695401 is determined by the following parameters:

• Accessory Type: Must be Actuator Box
• Shell Size - Insert: Must be M12
• Environmental Protection: Must maintain Dust Tight and Waterproof ratings
• RoHS Compliance: Must be RoHS Compliant
• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact (same manufacturer ecosystem)

The substitute part 1452770 meets all substitution criteria. While it differs in connector opening count (6 vs. 8), material composition (PBT vs. Polyamide), and color, these variations do not affect functional substitutability for M12 circular connector applications requiring dust-tight and waterproof protection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1452770 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1695401. Selection of the 1452770 is supported by:

• Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support
• Identical M12 shell size and connector interface compatibility
• Maintained environmental protection ratings (dust-tight, waterproof)
• RoHS compliance certification matching the original specification
• Same manufacturer lineage, ensuring design consistency within Phoenix Contact product ecosystems

The reduction in connector opening count from 8 to 6 should be evaluated against specific application requirements. Both parts maintain equivalent environmental protection and M12 interface standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1452770 directly replace the 1695401 in existing installations?

A: The 1452770 is functionally equivalent for M12 circular connector applications requiring dust-tight and waterproof protection. The primary design difference is the connector opening count (6 vs. 8). Compatibility depends on whether your application utilizes all 8 openings on the original part.

Q: What is the significance of the material change from Polyamide to PBT?

A: Both Polyamide and Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) are engineering polymers suitable for sensor actuator box applications. The material change does not affect the dust-tight or waterproof performance ratings. Material selection should be evaluated based on specific environmental exposure conditions in your application.

Q: Why is the 1695401 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The 1452770 represents the current active equivalent in the Phoenix Contact product line for M12 actuator box applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1695401 uses standard packaging, while the 1452770 is supplied in bulk packaging. Bulk packaging does not affect component functionality or performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 1695401 and 1452770 are RoHS Compliant with identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8543.70.9860) classifications.
