Phoenix Contact 1773501 Heavy Duty Connector Hood - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1773501 is a heavy duty connector hood designed for side entry applications with PG16 thread size, part of the HEAVYCON® HV series. This connector provides IP65 ingress protection (dust tight, water resistant) and operates across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing maintenance, repair, and system integration applications where this connector type is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 1773501 is determined by the following critical parameters that must align between the main part and any substitute:

• Connector Type & Style: Hood connector with side entry configuration
• Thread Size: PG16 mechanical interface requirement
• Lock Mechanism: Locking clip on base bottom
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C capability
• Housing Material: Aluminum die cast construction
• Ingress Protection: Minimum IP65 rating (dust tight, water resistant)
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance status

The Phoenix Contact 1412627 qualifies as a substitute based on these parameters. While it belongs to the HEAVYCON® B series rather than the HV series, it maintains the same connector type, side entry style, PG16 thread size, locking mechanism, operating temperature range, and housing material. The 1412627 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the original part's IP65 rating, making it suitable for applications requiring equal or greater environmental sealing.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1412627 is the identified substitute for the obsolete 1773501. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The 1773501 is obsolete, while the 1412627 maintains active product status with current manufacturing and supply chain availability.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet RoHS requirements. The 1412627 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory standards. The 1412627 is also REACH unaffected, confirming compliance with European chemical regulations.

Environmental Protection: The 1412627 provides enhanced ingress protection (IP66/IP67/IP69K) compared to the original IP65 rating. This upgrade ensures equal or superior performance in dust and water exposure scenarios. The 1412627 includes salt water resistance as an additional feature, extending application scope.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both connectors share identical mechanical specifications—PG16 thread size, side entry configuration, and locking clip mechanism on the base bottom—ensuring direct physical compatibility in existing installations.

Thermal Performance: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), confirming thermal compatibility for all specified operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1412627 directly replace the 1773501 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both connectors share the same connector type (hood), style (side entry), thread size (PG16), lock mechanism (locking clip on base bottom), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C). The mechanical interface is identical, allowing direct substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two connectors?

A: The main differences are series designation (HV versus B), size designation (HV3 versus B10), and ingress protection rating (IP65 versus IP66/IP67/IP69K). The 1412627 provides enhanced environmental sealing and salt water resistance.

Q: Is the higher ingress protection rating of the 1412627 a concern for applications originally specified for IP65?

A: No. Enhanced ingress protection is a beneficial upgrade. Applications requiring IP65 protection will function correctly with a component rated for IP66/IP67/IP69K, as the higher rating indicates superior environmental sealing capability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1773501 packaging is listed as unspecified, while the 1412627 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process.

Q: Do both connectors meet current regulatory standards?

A: The 1412627 meets current standards with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The 1773501, being obsolete, may not reflect current regulatory requirements. The 1412627 is recommended for new designs and ongoing applications.

Q: What is the housing material for both connectors?

A: Both use aluminum die cast construction. The 1773501 specifies powder coat finish, while the 1412627 finish is not specified in available documentation.
