Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for terminal block headers is determined by strict alignment of electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish whether a part qualifies as an equivalent substitute for the Phoenix Contact 1759062:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 7
• Pitch spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Header orientation: 90° right angle
• Connector type: Male pins, shrouded (2 side)
• Termination method: Solder
• Mounting configuration: Through hole
• Contact tail length: 0.138" (4.60mm)
• Electrical ratings: Current ≥12A (IEC) or ≥15A (UL); Voltage ≥400V (IEC) or ≥300V (UL)
• Flammability compliance: UL94 V-0 minimum
• RoHS compliance status

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 282815-7 meets all critical matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both components share identical positional configuration, pitch, orientation, and termination characteristics. Electrical ratings and compliance certifications are equivalent or exceed the original specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 1759062 and TE Connectivity 282815-7 are active production components with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following engineering considerations:

Phoenix Contact 1759062 is the original specification component with ROHS3 compliance certification and documented IEC electrical ratings (12A @ 400V). This part maintains full compliance with the most stringent regulatory requirements and is suitable for applications requiring explicit ROHS3 documentation.

TE Connectivity 282815-7 provides an equivalent alternative with RoHS compliance and identical UL electrical ratings (15A @ 300V). This component includes side stacking capability and operates across the temperature range of -40°C to 110°C. The housing material specification (PA66 vs. PA) represents a minor material variant within the polyamide family, with no functional impact on electrical or mechanical performance.

Both components are suitable for direct substitution in applications where the specified electrical ratings and compliance certifications are met. Component selection may be driven by supply availability, cost considerations, or existing inventory management protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TE Connectivity 282815-7 be used as a direct replacement for Phoenix Contact 1759062 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical positional configuration (7 positions), pitch spacing (5.08mm), orientation (90° right angle), and termination method (solder through-hole). Electrical ratings and flammability compliance are equivalent. The components are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference in insulation height between these two parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1759062 has an insulation height of 0.339" (8.61mm), while the TE Connectivity 282815-7 measures 0.329" (8.36mm). This 0.010" (0.25mm) difference is within normal manufacturing tolerance and does not affect PCB layout or mechanical fit in standard applications.

Q: Are there differences in housing material between these parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact uses polyamide (PA) nylon, while the TE Connectivity part uses polyamide (PA66) nylon 6/6. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are functionally equivalent for this application. PA66 offers slightly enhanced mechanical properties but does not impact electrical performance or compatibility.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these components?

A: The TE Connectivity 282815-7 specifies an operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C. The Phoenix Contact 1759062 does not provide an explicit operating temperature specification in the available documentation. For applications requiring defined temperature performance, the TE Connectivity part provides documented thermal operating limits.

Q: Do both parts support side stacking?

A: The TE Connectivity 282815-7 explicitly includes side stacking capability as a documented feature. The Phoenix Contact 1759062 does not list this feature in the provided specifications. If side stacking is required for your application, verify compatibility with the specific design requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Phoenix Contact 1759062 is ROHS3 compliant, and the TE Connectivity 282815-7 is RoHS compliant. Both meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions. The ROHS3 designation on the Phoenix Contact part indicates compliance with the most recent regulatory iteration.

Q: What are the electrical rating differences between IEC and UL standards?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1759062 is rated at 12A @ 400V under IEC standards and 15A @ 300V under UL standards. The TE Connectivity 282815-7 is rated at 15A @ 300V under UL standards. For applications requiring IEC compliance at 400V, the Phoenix Contact part provides explicit certification. For UL-regulated applications, both parts meet the 15A @ 300V requirement.
