Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for terminal block headers is determined by strict alignment of electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish compatibility:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• Number of positions: 12 (exact match required)
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm) (exact match required)
• Header orientation: Vertical (exact match required)
• Termination style: Solder (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through hole (exact match required)
• Contact tail length: 0.138" (4.60mm) (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: Minimum 300V (UL) or 400V (IEC)
• Current rating: Minimum 10A (UL)
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0 (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: Required

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 1-282822-2 meets all critical substitution parameters. The primary design difference is the shroud configuration (2-side shrouded versus partial shroud), which does not affect electrical compatibility or mounting footprint. The substitute part exceeds the current rating requirement (15A UL versus 10A UL) and maintains equivalent voltage and flammability specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 1-282822-2 is a direct functional substitute for the Phoenix Contact 1704589. Both components maintain identical electrical specifications at the UL rating level (300V, 10A minimum), equivalent flammability certification (UL94 V-0), and RoHS compliance. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.

The 2-side shroud design of the substitute provides enhanced mechanical protection compared to the partial shroud of the original part, with no impact on PCB footprint or solder pad layout. The substitute's higher current rating (15A UL) provides additional design margin without introducing compatibility issues.

Both components utilize polyamide housing materials with identical contact tail lengths and mounting configurations, ensuring direct mechanical interchangeability in through-hole applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 1-282822-2 be used as a direct replacement for the Phoenix Contact 1704589?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (12), orientation (vertical), termination method (solder), and mounting type (through hole). Electrical ratings and flammability certifications are equivalent or superior in the substitute part.

Q: What is the difference between partial shroud and 2-side shrouded configurations?

A: Partial shroud provides minimal side protection, while 2-side shrouded offers protection on two opposing sides. Both configurations maintain the same PCB footprint and solder pad spacing. The 2-side shrouded design provides improved mechanical robustness and contact protection during assembly and handling.

Q: Are there any voltage or current derating considerations when using the substitute?

A: No. The substitute part meets or exceeds all electrical specifications of the original component. The TE Connectivity part is rated for 15A (UL) compared to the original 10A (UL), providing additional current capacity without requiring design modifications.

Q: Is the substitute part RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The TE Connectivity 1-282822-2 is RoHS compliant, matching the compliance status of the original Phoenix Contact component.

Q: What is the availability status of the substitute part?

A: The TE Connectivity 1-282822-2 is classified as active product status with current inventory availability, ensuring reliable supply for new designs and replacement applications.
