Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1773365 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Connector Type & Series: Insert configuration within HEAVYCON® HV6 series
• Gender & Position Count: Female insert with 6+2+Ground positions
• Current Rating: 16A electrical capacity
• Contact Material & Finish: Copper alloy with silver finish
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C range
• Compliance: RoHS compliant, UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The primary difference between the main part and its substitute lies in the termination style: the 1773365 uses screw termination, while the substitute 1407744 uses push-in termination. Both maintain identical electrical and thermal specifications, allowing functional equivalence in applications where the termination method can be accommodated.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1407744 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1773365. Both components maintain identical electrical specifications (16A current rating), thermal operating range (-40°C to 125°C), and compliance certifications (RoHS compliant, UL94 V-0). The 1407744 is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability, making it the appropriate selection for applications requiring the 1773365.

The primary design consideration is the termination method transition from screw to push-in. This change does not affect electrical performance or thermal characteristics but requires evaluation of the mechanical interface within the end-use assembly. The housing material difference (polyamide to polycarbonate) maintains equivalent flammability and environmental performance within the specified operating parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1407744 directly replace the 1773365 in existing designs?

A: The 1407744 provides electrical and thermal equivalence. Compatibility depends on whether the assembly can accommodate push-in termination instead of screw termination. Both components share identical position count (6+2+Ground), current rating (16A), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C).

Q: What is the difference between screw and push-in termination?

A: Screw termination (1773365) requires manual wire insertion and screw fastening. Push-in termination (1407744) uses a spring-loaded mechanism for wire insertion. Both achieve equivalent electrical connection within the specified 16A current rating.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both the 1773365 and 1407744 are RoHS compliant and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. No compliance disadvantage exists in selecting the substitute part.

Q: Why is the 1773365 obsolete?

A: The 1773365 is classified as obsolete by Phoenix Contact. The 1407744 represents the active product line continuation within the HEAVYCON® HV6 series for this connector configuration.

Q: Does housing material affect performance?

A: Both polyamide (PA) and polycarbonate (PC) housing materials maintain the required UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operate within the -40°C to 125°C temperature range. Material selection does not impact electrical performance or thermal specifications.
