Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1702947 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the COMBICON DFK-IPC series
• Position Count: Substitute must provide 7 positions per level
• Pitch Specification: Substitute must maintain 0.400" (10.16mm) pitch for mechanical and electrical alignment
• Electrical Ratings: Substitute must support minimum 600 V UL voltage and 5 A UL current ratings
• Connection Type: Substitute must provide header female sockets for front panel and PCB pins right angle for rear panel
• Panel Thickness Compatibility: Substitute must accommodate 0.039 ~ 0.118" (1.0 ~ 3.0mm) panel thickness range
• Color Specification: Substitute must be green to maintain visual identification standards
• Compliance: Substitute must maintain RoHS compliance status

The Phoenix Contact 1702549 meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the same series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1702549 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 1702947 model. Both components maintain identical electrical ratings (600 V UL, 5 A UL), mechanical pitch (0.400"), position count (7), and connection configurations. The 1702549 holds active product status with current manufacturing support and RoHS compliance certification, providing supply chain continuity for applications currently using the 1702947.

The primary distinction between the two models is the panel mount type specification. The 1702947 includes a front flange feature in its snap lock mounting system, while the 1702549 uses standard snap lock mounting without the front flange. This difference does not affect electrical performance or core mechanical compatibility within the specified panel thickness range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1702549 directly replace the 1702947 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings, pitch specifications, position counts, and connection types. The 1702549 is mechanically compatible within the same panel thickness range (0.039 ~ 0.118"). The absence of a front flange on the 1702549 does not compromise electrical or mechanical function.

Q: What is the significance of the panel mount type difference?

A: The 1702947 includes a front flange feature in its snap lock design, while the 1702549 uses standard snap lock mounting. This is a mechanical design variation that does not affect electrical performance or compatibility with standard panel thicknesses within the specified range.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1702947 and 1702549 maintain RoHS compliance certification, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for industrial applications.

Q: Why is the 1702947 classified as obsolete?

A: The 1702947 has been superseded by the 1702549 within the COMBICON DFK-IPC product line. The 1702549 provides equivalent functionality with active manufacturing status and ongoing supply availability.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1702549 is available in bulk packaging, suitable for production and replacement applications.
