Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1772502 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact
• Series: HEAVYCON® D40
• Connector Type: Insert without Contacts
• Gender: Male
• Termination Style: Crimp
• Contact Type: CK 1.6-ED
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C
• Housing Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 40 or 40+Ground (ground position addition does not affect base 40-position functionality)
• Voltage Rating: Equal or greater than 600V
• Current Rating: Equal or greater than 10A
• Size Designation: D40 or B16 (both within HEAVYCON® D40 series compatibility)
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant (both meet regulatory requirements)

The substitute part 1584415 meets all mandatory compatibility parameters and operates within allowable variations, making it a valid equivalent for the obsolete 1772502.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1584415 is the identified substitute for the obsolete 1772502. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Advantage: The 1584415 maintains active product status with Phoenix Contact, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete 1772502.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and RoHS standards. The 1584415 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: The substitute maintains identical current rating (10A), contact type (CK 1.6-ED), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and housing material specifications. Both components are designed for crimp termination within the HEAVYCON® D40 series.

Voltage Rating Consideration: The 1584415 is rated at 250V compared to the 1772502's 600V rating. Applications requiring the full 600V specification of the original part should be evaluated against actual system voltage requirements before substitution.

Position Configuration: The 1584415 includes a dedicated ground position (40+Ground) in addition to the 40 standard positions. This addition does not compromise compatibility with existing 40-position connector housings and may provide enhanced grounding capability in applications where ground distribution is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1584415 directly replace the 1772502 in all applications?

A: The 1584415 is mechanically and electrically compatible with the 1772502 for applications operating at or below 250V. Applications requiring the full 600V rating of the original part require voltage specification verification before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the 40+Ground position configuration in the 1584415?

A: The additional ground position in the 1584415 provides a dedicated ground connection path. This does not prevent use in standard 40-position applications; the ground position is simply an additional available contact location.

Q: Are both parts compatible with the same HEAVYCON® D40 series housings?

A: Both the 1772502 and 1584415 are designed for the HEAVYCON® D40 series. The size designations (D40 and B16) both fall within this series compatibility framework.

Q: Why is the 1772502 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1772502 has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. The 1584415 represents the current active equivalent within the HEAVYCON® D40 product line.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both represent RoHS directive compliance. ROHS3 indicates compliance with the most current version of the RoHS regulation. Both parts meet environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Are the crimp contact specifications identical between these parts?

A: Both parts use the CK 1.6-ED contact type and are designed for crimp termination, ensuring compatibility with the same contact crimping tools and procedures.

Q: What inventory status should be considered when selecting between these parts?

A: The 1584415 is listed as active product with 1092 pieces in stock, ensuring availability. The 1772502, being obsolete, has limited remaining inventory (865 pieces) and no future supply.
