Phoenix Contact 1714937 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1714937 is a rectangular connector header designed for surface mount applications with 20 positions at 1.27mm pitch. This component features a shrouded 4-wall design with push-pull fastening and gold-plated mating contacts. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Substitute parts must maintain electrical compatibility, mechanical fit, and environmental performance across the specified operating range.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1714937 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Pitch - Mating: 0.050" (1.27mm)
• Number of Positions: 20
• Number of Rows: 2
• Row Spacing - Mating: 0.050" (1.27mm)
• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Shrouding: Shrouded - 4 Wall
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Termination: Solder
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold (primary) or equivalent noble metal finish
• Insulation Material: LCP or equivalent thermoplastic
• Current Rating: Equal to or greater than 1.4A
• Voltage Rating: Equal to or greater than 500V
• Insulation Height: Within ±0.010" (0.25mm) of specified dimension
• Contact Shape: Rectangular or Square
• Packaging: Cut Tape (CT), Digi-Reel®, or Tape & Reel (TR)

All three substitute parts meet these criteria and are classified as active products with current manufacturing status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1373866 is the primary direct substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1714937. Both components are manufactured by Phoenix Contact, share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, and maintain ROHS3 compliance. The 1373866 is classified as active with higher current rating (2.2A versus 1.4A), providing enhanced performance margin. Packaging is available in Tape & Reel format with 1302 units in current inventory.

HARTING 15110202601000 serves as a cross-manufacturer equivalent within the har-flex® series. This component maintains all critical parameters including pitch, position count, shrouding, and fastening type. The part is active and ROHS3 compliant. Insulation height variation is within acceptable tolerance (0.260" versus 0.264"). Pick and place features are included. Inventory availability is 1414 units.

Adam Tech ESMC-M-20-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R functions as an alternative substitute from the ESMC series. This part maintains all mandatory matching parameters with insulation material specified as thermoplastic rather than LCP. Current rating is 1.2A, which is below the original specification of 1.4A. Contact material is phosphor bronze with tin post finish. The component is active and ROHS3 compliant with 1427 units available.

Selection between these substitutes depends on application requirements for current capacity, insulation material specifications, and packaging preferences. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and operate across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1373866 be used as a direct replacement for 1714937?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Phoenix Contact with identical pitch (1.27mm), position count (20), row configuration (2 rows), shrouding (4-wall), and fastening type (push-pull). The 1373866 is active production status with higher current rating (2.2A). Packaging differs (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape/Digi-Reel), but electrical and mechanical compatibility is complete.

Q: What are the key differences between the three substitute options?

A: Phoenix Contact 1373866 and HARTING 15110202601000 are functionally equivalent with minor variations in contact shape (square versus rectangular) and insulation height within tolerance. Adam Tech ESMC-M-20-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R differs in insulation material (thermoplastic versus LCP) and current rating (1.2A versus 1.4A). All maintain the critical 1.27mm pitch and 20-position configuration.

Q: Are there voltage or current limitations when substituting?

A: Phoenix Contact 1373866 provides higher current capacity (2.2A) than the original specification (1.4A), offering improved performance margin. HARTING 15110202601000 does not specify current or voltage ratings in available data. Adam Tech ESMC-M-20-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R is rated at 1.2A, which is below the original 1.4A specification and should be evaluated for application requirements.

Q: Do all substitutes meet RoHS and flammability requirements?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, matching the original Phoenix Contact 1714937 specifications.

Q: What is the impact of insulation material differences?

A: The original part and Phoenix Contact 1373866 use Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) insulation. HARTING 15110202601000 also uses LCP. Adam Tech ESMC-M-20-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R uses thermoplastic insulation. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 requirements and operate across -55°C to 125°C. Material selection depends on specific application thermal and mechanical stress conditions.

Q: How do packaging formats affect component selection?

A: The original part is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Phoenix Contact 1373866 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR). HARTING 15110202601000 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR). Adam Tech ESMC-M-20-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R is supplied in Cut Tape (CT). Packaging selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility and production volume requirements.

Q: Are contact shape differences (rectangular versus square) significant?

A: Contact shape variation (rectangular in original versus square in substitutes) does not affect electrical performance or mating compatibility. Both shapes maintain the specified 1.27mm pitch and contact dimensions. Selection depends on PCB layout and connector cavity design compatibility.
