Phoenix Contact 1729092 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1729092 is a 10-position wire-to-board terminal block with side entry configuration and 5.00mm pitch, designed for horizontal mounting through PCB holes. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and physical dimensions align with the original specification, enabling direct replacement in applications where the primary part is unavailable or inventory constraints require alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1729092 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: 10 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) spacing
• Mating Orientation & Mounting: Horizontal with board, through-hole PCB mounting
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 300 V voltage rating; current rating must support application requirements
• Wire Termination Method: Screw-based rising cage clamp mechanism
• Mechanical Interface: M3 screw thread; compatible torque specification
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliance required for regulated applications

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 1-282836-0 (Buchanan series) meets these substitution criteria with equivalent mechanical and electrical characteristics within the allowed parameter ranges.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 1729092 and TE Connectivity 1-282836-0 are Active product status components with ROHS3 compliance certification. The TE Connectivity substitute provides equivalent mechanical interface compatibility and exceeds the minimum electrical performance requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Availability: TE Connectivity 1-282836-0 currently maintains higher inventory (5264 pcs vs. 1115 pcs)
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Applications using 14-15 AWG wire require the Phoenix Contact original part; TE Connectivity part supports 16-30 AWG range
• Current Margin: TE Connectivity part rated at 14.6 A provides additional current capacity margin over the 10 A Phoenix Contact specification
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts satisfy ROHS3 and EAR99 ECCN requirements

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TE Connectivity 1-282836-0 directly replace Phoenix Contact 1729092 in existing designs?

A: Direct replacement is possible when wire gauge requirements fall within the 16-30 AWG range. Applications using 14-15 AWG wire require the original Phoenix Contact part due to wire gauge specification differences.

Q: Are the screw torque specifications compatible between these parts?

A: Both parts use M3 screw threads. Phoenix Contact specifies 0.5-0.6 Nm torque; TE Connectivity specifies 0.68 Nm. The TE Connectivity specification represents a higher torque value and should be applied when using that component.

Q: What is the impact of housing material differences?

A: Phoenix Contact uses polyamide (PA) nylon; TE Connectivity uses polyamide (PA66) nylon 6/6. Both materials are compatible polyamide variants suitable for terminal block applications with equivalent mechanical and thermal performance in standard operating conditions.

Q: Are both parts suitable for RoHS3 regulated applications?

A: Yes. Both Phoenix Contact 1729092 and TE Connectivity 1-282836-0 carry ROHS3 compliance certification and are suitable for regulated applications requiring RoHS3 compliance.

Q: What are the key differences in electrical performance?

A: Both parts are rated at 300 V. The TE Connectivity part provides 14.6 A current capacity compared to the Phoenix Contact 10 A rating, representing a 35% increase in current handling capability.
