Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 1730492 qualifies as a direct functional substitute for the 1730719 based on the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Identical current rating (10 A) and voltage rating (300 V)
• Physical Configuration: Same 12-position count, 5.08mm pitch, and horizontal with board mating orientation
• Mechanical Interface: Identical through-hole mounting type, screw-based wire termination with rising cage clamp, and M3 screw thread
• Wire Compatibility: Same wire gauge acceptance range (12-30 AWG)
• Torque Specification: Identical screw torque requirement (0.5-0.6 Nm)
• Material & Compliance: Matching polyamide housing material, RoHS compliance, and MSL rating

The primary distinction is product status: the 1730492 is active (COMBICON MKDS series), while the 1730719 is obsolete (COMBICON EMKDS series). Both components share identical electrical and mechanical parameters, confirming direct substitutability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1730492 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete 1730719. Both components are RoHS compliant and carry identical MSL ratings, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility. The 1730492 maintains active product status within the COMBICON MKDS series, providing assured long-term availability and manufacturing support compared to the discontinued EMKDS variant.

For applications currently using the 1730719, direct replacement with the 1730492 requires no design modifications, as all electrical, mechanical, and dimensional specifications are identical. PCB layouts, wire gauge selections, and torque specifications remain unchanged.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1730492 be used as a direct replacement for the 1730719 without PCB redesign?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (12), mounting type (through-hole), and electrical ratings (10 A, 300 V). No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: Are there differences in wire termination between these parts?

A: No. Both use screw-based rising cage clamp termination with M3 threads and identical torque specifications (0.5-0.6 Nm).

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with the 1730492?

A: The 1730492 accepts 12-30 AWG wire, matching the 1730719 specification.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1730719 and 1730492 are RoHS compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity).

Q: Why is the 1730719 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1730719 belongs to the COMBICON EMKDS series, which has been superseded by the active COMBICON MKDS series. The 1730492 represents the current production equivalent.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 1730719 was supplied in standard packaging, while the 1730492 is available in bulk packaging. This does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.
