Phoenix Contact 1772010 Heavy Duty Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1772010 is a base-mount, side-entry heavy duty connector from the HEAVYCON® B series, designed for box mounting applications with PG21 thread size and B24 connector size. This connector features a gray aluminum die-cast housing with powder coating and operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

The 1772010 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is essential for maintaining system compatibility in applications where this connector is specified, particularly when original stock becomes unavailable or when upgrading to active product lines with enhanced performance characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1772010 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type & Mounting: Base - Box Mount configuration
  • Connection Style: Side Entry orientation
  • Size Designation: B24 connector size
  • Thread Interface: PG21 thread size
  • Locking Mechanism: Locking Clip (2) on Hood
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C range
  • Regulatory Compliance: RoHS Compliant status
  • Housing Material: Aluminum, Die Cast construction

The substitute part 1772010 (Phoenix Contact 1412871) maintains full compatibility across all critical mechanical and electrical parameters. The primary distinction lies in product status (active vs. obsolete) and enhanced ingress protection rating, which represents a functional upgrade rather than a deviation from core specifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: Phoenix Contact 1412871

The 1412871 is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 1772010. Both connectors share identical mechanical interfaces (B24 size, PG21 thread, side-entry configuration) and electrical operating parameters (-40°C to 125°C). The 1412871 maintains RoHS compliance and is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The 1412871 represents an upgrade path from the HEAVYCON® B series to the HEAVYCON® EVO series, introducing enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) and salt water resistance features. These enhancements do not compromise backward compatibility with existing mounting interfaces or electrical specifications.

The minimal dimensional variance (0.039" / 1.00mm increase in height) falls within standard mechanical tolerances for box-mount applications and does not require enclosure redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1412871 directly replace the 1772010 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical connector size (B24), thread size (PG21), mounting type (base box-mount), and locking mechanism (2-clip hood). Operating temperature ranges and RoHS compliance are equivalent. The 1412871 is mechanically and electrically compatible.

Q: What is the significance of the ingress protection rating difference?

A: The 1772010 does not specify an ingress protection rating. The 1412871 provides IP66/IP67/IP69K protection, indicating dust-tight and waterproof performance. This represents enhanced environmental protection without affecting core connector functionality or compatibility.

Q: Why is the 1772010 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects Phoenix Contact's product lifecycle management. The HEAVYCON® EVO series (1412871) supersedes the HEAVYCON® B series (1772010) in the manufacturer's active product portfolio. The 1412871 offers equivalent functionality with improved environmental ratings.

Q: Are there dimensional concerns with the 1412871 substitute?

A: The 1412871 height dimension is 0.039" (1.00mm) greater than the 1772010. This variance is within standard mechanical tolerances for industrial connector applications and does not typically require enclosure modification.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 1772010 is supplied in standard packaging. The 1412871 is available in bulk packaging, suitable for production and integration workflows.
