Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The HARTING 15290122502000 qualifies as a direct functional substitute for the Phoenix Contact 1714902 based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Connector type: Receptacle with female socket contacts
• Position count: 12 positions
• Pitch and row spacing: 0.050" (1.27mm) dual-row configuration
• Mounting configuration: Free hanging in-line
• Fastening mechanism: Latch lock
• Cable termination method: IDC for ribbon cable
• Environmental compliance: RoHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, MSL 1

Operational Compatibility: Both connectors support identical electrical and mechanical interfaces for ribbon cable IDC termination. The HARTING part specifies 30 AWG wire gauge and includes feed-through and strain relief features, providing enhanced functionality while maintaining full mechanical and electrical compatibility with the original Phoenix Contact design.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HARTING 15290122502000 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1714902. Selection is based on:

Product Status: The HARTING part maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete Phoenix Contact component.

Regulatory Compliance: Both connectors meet identical environmental and trade compliance requirements (RoHS, REACH, EAR99 classification, identical HTSUS code). The HARTING part achieves ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory standards.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: Identical connector geometry, pitch, row configuration, and IDC termination method ensure direct mechanical and electrical interchangeability in ribbon cable applications.

Enhanced Features: The HARTING substitute includes feed-through and strain relief features not specified in the original part, providing improved mechanical robustness without compromising compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HARTING 15290122502000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 1714902 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical mechanical dimensions, pitch spacing, row configuration, and IDC termination interface. Direct substitution is supported without modification to mating connectors or ribbon cable assemblies.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge specification in the HARTING part?

A: The HARTING part specifies 30 AWG wire gauge, defining the compatible ribbon cable conductor size for IDC termination. The original Phoenix Contact specification does not list wire gauge, but 30 AWG is standard for 12-position 1.27mm pitch IDC connectors.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1714902 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The HARTING 15290122502000 is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format does not affect connector functionality or interchangeability.

Q: How do the RoHS compliance levels differ?

A: The Phoenix Contact part is RoHS compliant (RoHS 2). The HARTING part is ROHS3 compliant, representing compliance with the current RoHS 3 directive. Both meet applicable environmental regulations for the intended application.

Q: Are there any contact finish differences?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1714902 specifies gold contact finish. The HARTING part does not specify contact finish in available documentation. Both connectors are suitable for IDC ribbon cable termination applications.
