Phoenix Contact 1727825 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1727825 is a 4-position terminal block header from the COMBICON DFK-PC series, designed for PCB-mounted applications with male pins and green housing. This component features right-angle PCB pins and snap-lock panel mounting for secure installation in control panels and industrial equipment.

The 1727825 is classified as obsolete. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or field replacement requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1727825 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Electrical Specifications: Voltage rating (300 V UL) and current capacity (41 A UL) must match exactly
  • Mechanical Configuration: 4 positions, 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch, and right-angle PCB pin orientation
  • Panel Interface: Male pin header with snap-lock mounting for 0.039 ~ 0.118" (1.0 ~ 3.0mm) panel thickness
  • Physical Dimensions: Width of 2.204" (55.98mm) and single-level design
  • Color & Compliance: Green housing with RoHS compliance

The substitute part 1727605 meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the 1727825.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1727605 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1727825. Both components are manufactured by Phoenix Contact within the COMBICON DFK-PC series and share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and functional specifications.

The 1727605 is classified as an active product with current manufacturing status and improved compliance certification (ROHS3). The panel mount type includes a front flange feature on the 1727605, which provides enhanced mechanical stability during installation without affecting electrical or dimensional compatibility.

For new designs or field replacements, the 1727605 should be selected. The active product status ensures long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1727605 be used as a direct replacement for the 1727825?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (300 V, 41 A), mechanical configuration (4 positions, 0.300" pitch), and physical dimensions (2.204" width). The 1727605 is electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the 1727825.

Q: What is the difference between the panel mount types listed for each part?

A: The 1727825 uses a 2-piece snap lock mounting system. The 1727605 uses a 2-piece snap lock mounting system with an added front flange. The front flange provides additional mechanical support during panel installation but does not affect electrical performance or dimensional compatibility.

Q: Why is the 1727825 obsolete while the 1727605 is active?

A: The 1727605 represents the current production version of this terminal block header within the COMBICON DFK-PC series. The 1727825 has been superseded in the product line. Both components are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 1727825 carries RoHS Compliant certification. The 1727605 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, which represents a more recent compliance standard. Both meet RoHS requirements. The 1727605 also includes REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 1727825 was supplied in standard packaging. The 1727605 is available in bulk packaging, which is typical for active production components.
