Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1714909 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 50 positions at 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch
• Row Configuration: 2 rows with 0.050" (1.27mm) row spacing
• Termination Method: IDC (Insulation Displacement Contact) for ribbon cable
• Mounting & Fastening: Free hanging in-line with latch lock fastening
• Electrical Compliance: RoHS compliance status

The HARTING 15290502502000 meets all substitution criteria. It maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications while offering active product status and enhanced features including feed-through capability and strain relief.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HARTING 15290502502000 is a direct functional equivalent to the Phoenix Contact 1714909. Both connectors share identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 50-position configuration, 1.27mm pitch, dual-row layout, IDC termination, and latch lock fastening.

Selection of the HARTING substitute is supported by:

• Product Status: The HARTING part maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance exceeds the RoHS compliance of the original part
• Enhanced Features: The HARTING connector includes feed-through and strain relief features not specified in the original part
• Packaging: Available in tray packaging suitable for automated assembly processes
• Wire Gauge Specification: Rated for 30 AWG ribbon cable, providing defined electrical performance parameters

Both connectors carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4051) classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HARTING 15290502502000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 1714909 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical specifications for connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, fastening type, and IDC termination. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is confirmed across all critical parameters.

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

A: The HARTING part specifies 30 AWG ribbon cable compatibility. This defines the wire gauge range for which the IDC contacts are optimized. The original Phoenix Contact part does not specify wire gauge, but 30 AWG is a standard specification for 1.27mm pitch IDC connectors in this position count.

Q: Does the HARTING part's active product status affect compatibility?

A: No. Active product status indicates ongoing manufacturing and availability. This is an advantage for new designs and replacement stock procurement, as the part will remain available through normal distribution channels.

Q: Are the feed-through and strain relief features on the HARTING connector required for substitution?

A: No. These are additional features that do not affect core connector compatibility. They provide enhanced functionality and durability but are not mandatory for mechanical or electrical substitution.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both certifications restrict hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard. The HARTING part's ROHS3 compliance meets or exceeds the RoHS compliance requirement of the original part.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching from Phoenix Contact to HARTING?

A: The HARTING part is supplied in tray packaging, which is standard for automated assembly and component handling. Verify that your assembly process accommodates tray packaging if the original part used different packaging.
