Phoenix Contact 1822406 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1822406 is an 11-position wire-to-board terminal block designed for vertical PCB mounting with top entry wire connection. This component operates at 10 A and 300 V, accommodating wire gauges from 16 to 24 AWG through screwless push-in spring termination. The part is actively manufactured and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for industrial control, automation, and power distribution applications where reliable wire-to-board connectivity is required. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when specific manufacturing or packaging requirements necessitate component alternatives.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The WAGO Corporation 2086-1111 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Identical current (10 A) and voltage (300 V) ratings
• Mechanical Compatibility: Matching 11-position configuration with 0.138" (4.60mm) pitch and vertical-with-board mating orientation
• Wire Accommodation: Identical 16-24 AWG wire gauge acceptance
• Mounting Compatibility: Through-hole PCB mounting with equivalent footprint
• Termination Method: Both employ screwless push-in spring technology, ensuring compatible wire insertion and retention
• Compliance: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and MSL 1 rating

The substitute part differs in housing material (Polyphthalamide glass-filled versus Liquid Crystal Polymer), contact plating composition (electrolytic copper-tin versus tin), and clamp material specification, but these variations do not affect functional interchangeability within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 1822406 and WAGO 2086-1111 are active products with current manufacturing status and full RoHS compliance. The Phoenix Contact part carries standard RoHS compliance, while the WAGO substitute meets ROHS3 specifications, providing enhanced environmental compliance for applications with stricter regulatory requirements.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Packaging Requirements: The Phoenix Contact part is supplied in Tape & Reel format, suitable for automated assembly processes. The WAGO substitute is supplied in Tray packaging, appropriate for manual assembly or lower-volume applications.
• Operating Temperature Specification: The WAGO part provides explicit temperature rating (-60°C to 105°C), beneficial for applications requiring documented thermal performance. The Phoenix Contact part does not specify operating temperature limits.
• Material Composition: The WAGO housing material (glass-filled polyphthalamide) offers enhanced mechanical strength compared to the Phoenix Contact's liquid crystal polymer, relevant for applications with elevated vibration or mechanical stress.
• Inventory Availability: Both parts maintain active stock levels, with WAGO showing 986 units and Phoenix Contact showing 918 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the WAGO 2086-1111 be used as a direct replacement for the Phoenix Contact 1822406 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (10 A, 300 V), mechanical configuration (11 positions, 4.60mm pitch), wire accommodation (16-24 AWG), and mounting method (through-hole). The screwless push-in termination is functionally equivalent. PCB footprints are compatible.

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

A: The main differences are packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Tray), housing material composition (LCP versus glass-filled PPA), and contact plating specification (tin versus electrolytic copper-tin). These differences do not affect electrical or mechanical interchangeability.

Q: Does the WAGO part's operating temperature specification affect compatibility?

A: The WAGO part's documented temperature range (-60°C to 105°C) provides explicit thermal performance data. The Phoenix Contact part does not specify temperature limits. For applications operating within the WAGO-specified range, both parts are compatible. For applications requiring temperature documentation, the WAGO part provides this specification.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Phoenix Contact 1822406 is RoHS compliant. The WAGO 2086-1111 is ROHS3 compliant, which represents an enhanced compliance standard. Both parts meet RoHS requirements.

Q: What packaging considerations should be evaluated?

A: The Phoenix Contact part arrives in Tape & Reel packaging, optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. The WAGO part arrives in Tray packaging, suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and production volume.

Q: Are the wire termination methods equivalent?

A: Both parts employ screwless push-in spring technology. The Phoenix Contact uses leg spring and push-in spring termination, while the WAGO uses push-button clamp termination. Both methods provide tool-free wire insertion and secure retention within the specified wire gauge range (16-24 AWG).
