Phoenix Contact 1702086 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1702086 is a 9-position terminal block header from the COMBICON DFK-PC series, designed for front panel header connections with male pins and rear PCB right-angle pin termination. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitutes essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The part features threaded mating lock and shield connection feedthrough capabilities, with electrical ratings of 600V UL and 5A UL current capacity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1702086 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Voltage rating (600V UL) and current capacity must meet or exceed the original specification
• Physical Compatibility: Position count (9), pitch (0.400"/10.16mm), width (4.992"/126.80mm), and panel thickness range (0.039 ~ 0.118") must be identical
• Connector Type: Front panel header connection with male pins and rear PCB right-angle pin termination
• Series Alignment: COMBICON DFK-PC series designation
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance status

The substitute part 1702086 meets all these criteria with the exception of current rating, which is elevated to 66A, and shield connection configuration, which differs from feedthrough to front-side connection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1701605 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 1702086. Both components maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 9-position configuration, 0.400" pitch, 600V UL voltage rating, and RoHS compliance. The 1701605 provides enhanced current capacity (66A versus 5A), which represents an improvement over the original specification and poses no compatibility risk in applications designed for the 1702086.

The primary distinction lies in product status: the 1702086 is obsolete while the 1701605 is active, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The shield connection configuration differs (feedthrough versus front-side), which may require evaluation based on specific application requirements, though both configurations maintain the same electrical and mechanical interface standards.

For new designs or replacement applications, the 1701605 is the appropriate selection due to its active status and superior current rating capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1701605 be used as a direct replacement for the 1702086?

A: Yes. The 1701605 maintains identical mechanical dimensions, pitch, position count, voltage rating, and connector type. The enhanced current rating (66A versus 5A) is compatible with applications designed for the original 5A specification.

Q: What is the difference in shield connection between these parts?

A: The 1702086 features shield connection feedthrough, while the 1701605 provides shield connection on the front side. Both configurations maintain the same electrical interface; the difference relates to physical shield routing and mounting orientation.

Q: Why is the 1702086 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Phoenix Contact. The 1701605 represents the active equivalent within the COMBICON DFK-PC series.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1702086 and 1701605 are RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The 1702086 original packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 1701605 is supplied in bulk packaging, which is standard for active production components.

Q: Do these parts share the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Identical pitch (0.400"), position count (9), and rear PCB right-angle pin termination ensure footprint compatibility between the 1702086 and 1701605.
