Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 1452796 is classified as a direct equivalent based on the following critical parameters that determine substitutability:

• Accessory Type: Both parts function as actuator boxes
• Shell Size - Insert: Both use M12 connector interface
• Connector Opening Count: Both feature 8 connector openings
• Environmental Protection: Both are dust tight and waterproof
• Application: Both are designed for use with circular connectors
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Compliance Standards: Both meet RoHS requirements and EAR99 export classification

The primary differences between these parts are material composition and product status, which do not affect functional compatibility in the intended application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1452796 is the direct substitute for obsolete part 1695427. Both components share identical functional specifications for M12 circular connector applications with 8 connector openings and equivalent environmental protection ratings.

The substitute part 1452796 carries active product status and ROHS3 compliance, providing improved long-term availability and regulatory alignment compared to the obsolete original part. Material differences (polyamide versus PBT) and color variation do not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility in standard circular connector applications.

Selection of part 1452796 is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications requiring M12 actuator box functionality with dust tight and waterproof specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 1452796 directly replace part 1695427 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical M12 shell size, 8 connector opening configuration, dust tight and waterproof ratings, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the significance of the material difference between these parts?

A: Part 1695427 uses polyamide material while part 1452796 uses polybutylene terephthalate (PBT). Both materials meet the specified environmental protection requirements and RoHS compliance standards. Material selection does not affect connector interface compatibility or environmental sealing performance.

Q: Why is part 1695427 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. Part 1452796 is the active equivalent and recommended for all new applications and component sourcing.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Part 1695427 is supplied with standard packaging while part 1452796 is supplied in bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and logistics but does not impact component functionality.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Part 1695427 is RoHS Compliant. Part 1452796 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected, representing current regulatory standards. Both meet EAR99 export classification requirements.
