Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1702824 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Voltage rating (600V UL) and current capacity (5A) must match exactly
• Mechanical Configuration: 3 positions per level, 0.400" (10.16mm) pitch, female socket header design, right-angle PCB pins
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL rating (1 - Unlimited)
• Series Compatibility: COMBICON DFK-IPC series designation
• Panel Interface: Panel thickness accommodation (0.039 ~ 0.118"), snap lock mounting mechanism

The Phoenix Contact 1702507 meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the same series, maintaining identical electrical ratings, position count, pitch, and connector type. Differences in overall width and panel mount configuration do not affect electrical or functional compatibility for applications requiring this connector type.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1702507 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 1702824 model. Both components maintain identical electrical specifications (600V, 5A), mechanical pitch (0.400"), position configuration (3-position), and connector type (female socket header with right-angle PCB pins). Both parts are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1, ensuring equivalent environmental performance.

The primary difference is product status: the 1702824 is obsolete while the 1702507 is active, with current inventory availability. The 1702507 features a reduced width (2.150" versus 2.817") and standard snap lock mounting without front flange, which may require panel layout evaluation for existing designs. Panel thickness accommodation remains identical across both parts.

For new designs or replacement applications, the 1702507 is the appropriate selection based on active product status and continued manufacturer support within the COMBICON DFK-IPC series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1702507 directly replace the 1702824 in existing applications?

A: The 1702507 is electrically and mechanically equivalent for connector function. The reduced width (2.150" versus 2.817") requires verification that panel cutout and mounting space accommodate the substitute part. Both components use identical snap lock mounting and support the same panel thickness range (0.039 ~ 0.118").

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 1702824 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited future availability. The 1702507 is active, ensuring continued supply, technical support, and compliance with current manufacturing standards. For new designs, the active part is the standard selection.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both the 1702824 and 1702507 operate at 600V UL voltage rating with 5A current capacity. Pitch (0.400"), position count (3), and connector type (female socket header) are identical.

Q: What does the width difference mean for my application?

A: The 1702507 width of 2.150" is narrower than the 1702824 width of 2.817". This affects only the physical footprint on the panel. Electrical and functional performance are unaffected. Panel cutout dimensions must be verified for the substitute part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1702824 and 1702507 are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), meeting equivalent environmental and regulatory requirements.
