Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1771464 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector Type: Insert
• Gender: Female
• Number of Positions: 16
• Size: B16
• Termination Style: Screw
• Voltage Rating: 600V
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Silver
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

Allowable Variation:

• Current Rating: The substitute part (1648241) provides 16A capacity, exceeding the original 15A specification. This represents an acceptable upgrade within the same connector family.
• Housing Material: The substitute uses Polycarbonate (PC), Glass Filled, compared to the original Polyamide (PA), Nylon. Both materials meet the UL94 V-0 flammability requirement and are suitable for the same operating environment.
• RoHS Compliance: The substitute meets ROHS3 Compliant status, representing current regulatory alignment.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1648241 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1771464. Both components are manufactured by Phoenix Contact within the HEAVYCON® B16 series and maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters.

The 1648241 offers the following advantages for procurement:

• Active Product Status: The substitute is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.
• Enhanced Current Capacity: The 16A rating provides a 1A margin above the original 15A specification, supporting higher load applications without derating.
• Improved Housing Material: Polycarbonate with glass reinforcement offers enhanced mechanical durability compared to standard polyamide.
• Current Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant status aligns with current environmental regulations and procurement standards.
• Maintained Certifications: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operating temperature range remain unchanged, ensuring compatibility with existing system requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1648241 be used as a direct replacement for the 1771464 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type, gender, position count, size, termination style, voltage rating, and operating temperature range. The 1648241 is mechanically and electrically compatible with systems designed for the 1771464.

Q: What is the significance of the increased current rating in the 1648241?

A: The 1648241 is rated for 16A compared to the 1771464's 15A. This represents an upgrade in current-carrying capacity. Systems designed for 15A operation will function within the 1648241's specifications without modification.

Q: How do the housing materials differ between the two parts?

A: The 1771464 uses Polyamide (PA), Nylon, while the 1648241 uses Polycarbonate (PC), Glass Filled. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The glass-filled polycarbonate in the 1648241 provides enhanced mechanical strength.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1771464 is supplied with unspecified packaging, while the 1648241 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Does the ROHS3 compliance of the 1648241 affect compatibility?

A: No. ROHS3 compliance represents current regulatory alignment and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. The 1648241 meets all environmental standards required for the application.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both the 1771464 and 1648241 are manufactured by Phoenix Contact and belong to the HEAVYCON® B16 series, ensuring design consistency and compatibility.
