Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1773420 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the HEAVYCON® HV10 series to ensure mechanical and electrical interchangeability within the connector system
• Position Configuration: The 10+2+Ground position count must be maintained to preserve circuit routing and contact density
• Size Designation: B24 size classification ensures housing and contact spacing compatibility
• Termination Method: Crimp termination style must be consistent for assembly process compatibility
• Contact Type: CK 2.5-ED contact specification ensures proper mating and current carrying capacity
• Environmental Ratings: Operating temperature range, flammability rating, and RoHS compliance must be equivalent or superior
• Connector Type Consideration: Insert configurations without pre-installed contacts are functionally equivalent when the same contact type and position count are maintained

The substitute part 1405265 meets all critical substitution criteria while offering the advantage of active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1405265 is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently specified with part number 1773420. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the HEAVYCON® HV10 connector system, including position count, size designation, contact type, and environmental ratings.

The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: 1773420 is obsolete while 1405265 maintains active production status. This transition reflects standard component lifecycle management and ensures long-term supply chain continuity.

Both parts maintain equivalent compliance certifications including RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C is identical, supporting equivalent performance across industrial and commercial applications.

For new designs and field replacements, 1405265 is the appropriate selection. Existing assemblies using 1773420 can be directly substituted with 1405265 without modification to mating connectors, contact assignments, or system integration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1405265 directly replace 1773420 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components are female inserts within the HEAVYCON® HV10 series with identical position counts (10+2+Ground), size (B24), contact type (CK 2.5-ED), and environmental specifications. Direct substitution is supported without system modification.

Q: What is the difference between "Insert" and "Insert without Contacts"?

A: The 1773420 is classified as an Insert, while 1405265 is an Insert without Contacts. This distinction refers to whether contacts are pre-installed in the housing. Both accept the same CK 2.5-ED crimp contacts and are mechanically and electrically interchangeable within the connector system. Contact installation method and assembly requirements remain consistent.

Q: Why is 1773420 obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects standard lifecycle management. The active equivalent 1405265 provides identical functionality and specifications, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability for HEAVYCON® HV10 applications.

Q: Are the environmental ratings equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -40°C to 125°C, maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating, are RoHS compliant, and have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Environmental performance is identical.

Q: What packaging is available for 1405265?

A: The substitute part 1405265 is available in Bulk packaging, compared to the original part's standard packaging designation.
