Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1772829 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector Type: Insert
• Gender: Female
• Size: B16
• Termination Style: Terminal Block, Straight - Screw
• Voltage Rating: 600V minimum
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C minimum
• Housing Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon or equivalent
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Silver

Position Configuration: The 1772829 specifies 16 positions. Substitute parts may include additional positions (such as dedicated ground positions) provided the base 16-position configuration is maintained and the connector maintains B16 size classification.

Current Rating Consideration: The original part is rated at 10A. Substitute parts with equal or higher current ratings (13A or greater) are electrically compatible and provide equivalent or improved performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1648090 serves as a direct substitute for the obsolete 1772829 based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. Both components maintain identical voltage and temperature specifications, identical connector type and termination methodology, and equivalent housing and contact materials.

The 1648090 provides enhanced current capacity (13A versus 10A), representing an improvement over the original specification. The addition of a dedicated ground position in the 1648090 does not compromise substitution eligibility, as the base 16-position configuration remains intact within the B16 size envelope.

The 1648090 holds active product status with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment for new designs and system replacements. Both components carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification, confirming equivalent safety performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1648090 directly replace the 1772829 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical connector type, gender, size classification, termination style, voltage rating, and operating temperature range. The 1648090 maintains the required 16-position configuration and meets all electrical specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the additional ground position in the 1648090?

A: The 1648090 includes a dedicated ground position in addition to the 16 standard positions. This does not affect substitution compatibility, as the connector maintains B16 size classification and the base 16-position signal configuration remains unchanged.

Q: Does the higher current rating of the 1648090 (13A vs. 10A) affect compatibility?

A: No. Higher current ratings indicate improved or equivalent performance. Systems designed for 10A operation function without modification at the 13A rating of the substitute part.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 1772829 carries RoHS Compliant status, while the 1648090 carries ROHS3 Compliant status. Both meet regulatory requirements. The 1648090 represents current compliance standards and is recommended for new designs.

Q: Why is the 1772829 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production. The 1648090 provides equivalent functionality with active product status, ensuring availability for replacement and new applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: The 1772829 packaging is unspecified in available documentation. The 1648090 is supplied in bulk packaging. Consult with the supplier regarding specific packaging requirements for your application.
