Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1714944 is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters: 68-position count, 0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch, 2-row configuration, 0.050" (1.27mm) row spacing, surface mount mounting type, shrouded 4-wall design, push-pull fastening, solder termination, copper alloy contact material, LCP insulation, -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

The identified substitute parts meet these mandatory criteria:

Direct Substitute (Phoenix Contact 1373892): Identical electrical and mechanical specifications with active product status and tape & reel packaging. Differs in contact shape (square vs. rectangular) and higher current rating (2.2A).

Similar Substitutes (HARTING 15110682601000, Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R): Maintain all critical dimensional and electrical parameters. Variations include contact shape, contact finish materials, and insulation material composition (thermoplastic for Adam Tech).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1373892 is the primary direct substitute, offering identical core specifications with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The tape & reel packaging provides advantages for high-volume production environments. This part is recommended for designs requiring direct Phoenix Contact ecosystem compatibility and standardized procurement channels.

HARTING 15110682601000 (har-flex® series) maintains full dimensional and electrical compatibility with the original specification. Active product status and ROHS3 compliance ensure long-term availability. The inclusion of pick-and-place features supports automated assembly processes. This part is suitable for applications where multi-source component qualification is acceptable.

Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R provides equivalent functionality with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. The phosphor bronze contact material and thermoplastic insulation represent material variations that maintain electrical performance within the specified operating parameters. Multiple mated stacking height options (8mm, 10.8mm, 15.4mm) offer design flexibility. This part is appropriate for applications with flexible material specifications and multi-vendor qualification strategies.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility with the original design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1373892 be used as a direct replacement for 1714944?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 68-position, 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch, 2-row configuration, surface mount mounting, shrouded 4-wall design, push-pull fastening, and solder termination. The primary difference is packaging format (tape & reel vs. cut tape) and active product status of the 1373892. Contact shape differs (square vs. rectangular), but this does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What are the key differences between the HARTING and Adam Tech substitutes?

A: HARTING 15110682601000 maintains LCP insulation material identical to the original, while Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R uses thermoplastic insulation. Contact materials differ (copper alloy vs. phosphor bronze). Both maintain the same pitch, position count, row spacing, operating temperature range, and flammability rating. Adam Tech offers additional mated stacking height options.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Phoenix Contact 1373892, HARTING 15110682601000, and Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R are all ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitutes?

A: Phoenix Contact 1373892 is supplied in tape & reel (TR) packaging. HARTING 15110682601000 and Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R are supplied in cut tape (CT) packaging. Packaging selection should align with production volume and assembly process requirements.

Q: Do these substitutes support the same mated stacking heights as the original?

A: Phoenix Contact 1714944 and Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R both support 8mm and 10.8mm stacking heights. Adam Tech additionally offers 15.4mm. HARTING 15110682601000 stacking height data is not specified in the provided parameters.

Q: Which substitute is recommended for high-volume production?

A: Phoenix Contact 1373892 is optimized for high-volume applications through tape & reel packaging and established Phoenix Contact supply chain infrastructure. HARTING 15110682601000 and Adam Tech ESMC-M-68-SGS-SMT-A-PP-T/R support pick-and-place automation features suitable for high-volume surface mount assembly.
