Phoenix Contact 1702154 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1702154 is an 8-position terminal block header with male pins designed for PCB mounting applications. This component features straight PCB pins and operates at 600V UL with 5A current rating. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1702154 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: Both main and substitute parts must maintain 8 positions at 0.400" (10.16mm) pitch to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mating connectors.
• Physical Dimensions: Width of 3.965" (100.72mm) and panel thickness tolerance of 0.039 ~ 0.118" (1.0 ~ 3.0mm) must be preserved for panel mounting compatibility.
• Connection Type: Front panel connection as header with male pins is mandatory. Rear panel connection type (straight vs. right angle) affects PCB layout but does not prevent functional substitution.
• Electrical Ratings: Voltage and current ratings must meet or exceed the application requirements. The main part operates at 600V/5A; substitute parts with lower ratings are not suitable for equivalent applications.
• Compliance & Status: RoHS compliance and active product status are preferred for new designs and long-term availability.

The Phoenix Contact 1701511 qualifies as a substitute based on matching position count, pitch, width, panel thickness, and mounting type. However, differences in rear panel pin configuration (right angle vs. straight) and electrical ratings (300V/66A vs. 600V/5A) must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1701511 is an active product with current manufacturing support and RoHS compliance, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete 1702154. Both components share identical mechanical specifications and mounting characteristics, ensuring PCB layout compatibility.

Selection between these parts depends on application voltage requirements. The 1702154 operates at 600V UL, while the 1701511 is rated for 300V UL. Applications requiring 600V operation cannot use the 1701511 as a direct substitute. Conversely, applications operating at or below 300V can utilize the 1701511 without electrical derating.

The rear panel pin configuration differs between parts: the 1702154 features straight PCB pins, while the 1701511 uses right-angle pins. This difference affects PCB layout and component placement but does not impact electrical function. PCB design modifications may be required to accommodate the alternative pin orientation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1701511 replace the 1702154 in all applications?

A: Mechanical compatibility is assured due to matching position count, pitch, width, and mounting type. Electrical compatibility depends on application voltage requirements. The 1701511 is rated for 300V maximum, while the 1702154 is rated for 600V. Applications requiring 600V operation cannot use the 1701511.

Q: What is the impact of the different rear panel pin configurations?

A: The 1702154 features straight PCB pins, while the 1701511 uses right-angle pins. This affects PCB layout and component placement. Designs using straight pins require PCB modifications to accommodate right-angle pins, including changes to mounting hole positions and trace routing.

Q: Why is the 1702154 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Phoenix Contact. The 1701511, classified as active, represents the current product line equivalent and is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 1702154 and 1701511 are RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: What is the current availability of these parts?

A: The 1702154 has 958 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The 1701511 has 874 pieces in stock as new original inventory. Availability may vary based on procurement timing and supplier inventory levels.
