Phoenix Contact 1771163 Heavy Duty Connector Base - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1771163 is a heavy duty connector base designed for box mount, side entry applications with PG16 thread size in the HEAVYCON® B series. This component provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across -40°C to 125°C. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412823 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 1771163. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces (B6 size, PG16 thread, side entry configuration) and thermal operating range. The 1412823 maintains full RoHS compliance and is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The 1412823 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K versus IP65), representing a specification improvement suitable for applications requiring higher environmental sealing performance. This upgrade does not compromise compatibility with existing mechanical mounting or electrical interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412823 directly replace the 1771163 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type, size designation (B6), thread size (PG16), mounting style (side entry, box mount), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The mechanical and electrical interfaces are compatible.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 1412823 belongs to the HEAVYCON® EVO series and provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the 1771163 (IP65). The 1412823 also includes salt water resistance as an additional feature.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences?

A: The height dimension differs slightly: 1771163 is 2.047" (52.00mm), while 1412823 is 2.150" (54.60mm). Length and width remain identical at 3.307" x 2.047" (84.00mm x 52.00mm).

Q: Does the 1412823 maintain RoHS compliance?

A: Yes, the 1412823 is RoHS compliant, matching the compliance status of the 1771163.

Q: Why is the 1771163 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1771163 has been superseded by newer HEAVYCON® EVO series components. The 1412823 represents the current production equivalent with improved environmental protection specifications.
