Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PT 2,5/ 4-PVH-5,0 BD:5-8 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Pitch compatibility: 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch is mandatory for mechanical and electrical interchangeability
• Position count: 4-position configuration required for connector mating
• Connector type: Female socket plug with 180° wire entry orientation
• Mounting configuration: Free-hanging (in-line) mounting type
• Electrical ratings: Current capacity minimum 14.6A (IEC), wire gauge compatibility 12-20 AWG or 0.5-4mm²
• Termination method: Screw-based termination acceptable
• Compliance: RoHS compliance required for modern supply chain integration

The Würth Elektronik 691385700004 meets these substitution criteria across all critical parameters while offering enhanced electrical specifications and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Würth Elektronik 691385700004 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1701900 based on the following engineering criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility: Both components share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (4), wire entry orientation (180°), and mounting configuration (free-hanging in-line). Physical interchangeability is confirmed.

Electrical Compatibility: The Würth Elektronik substitute exceeds the original specification with 16A IEC current rating versus 14.6A, providing margin for existing circuit designs. Wire gauge acceptance ranges overlap sufficiently for standard applications (12-20 AWG common range).

Product Status and Compliance: The substitute is active production status with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term supply chain availability and regulatory alignment. The original component's obsolete status necessitates transition to an active alternative.

Certification and Standards: Both components carry equivalent compliance certifications (RoHS/ROHS3, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8536.90.4000), supporting direct substitution in regulated applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Würth Elektronik 691385700004 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 1701900 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.00mm), 4-position configuration, 180° wire entry, and free-hanging mounting. Mechanical and electrical interchangeability is confirmed for standard applications within the specified current and wire gauge parameters.

Q: What are the key differences between these two components?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active), current rating (14.6A vs. 16A IEC), and wire gauge acceptance range (12-20 AWG vs. 12-24 AWG). The Würth Elektronik component provides enhanced electrical specifications and active supply availability.

Q: Are there wire gauge compatibility concerns when substituting?

A: The common wire gauge range (12-20 AWG / 0.5-2.5mm²) is fully compatible between both components. The Würth Elektronik part accepts finer gauges (down to 24 AWG / 0.2mm²), providing additional flexibility without affecting existing designs.

Q: What packaging format is the substitute available in?

A: The Würth Elektronik 691385700004 is supplied in tray packaging, suitable for automated assembly and bulk handling. Verify packaging requirements for your specific procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Phoenix Contact 1701900 is RoHS Compliant, and the Würth Elektronik 691385700004 is ROHS3 Compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and supply.
