Phoenix Contact 1822561 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1822561 is a 5-position wire-to-board terminal block designed for vertical PCB mounting with 5.00mm pitch spacing. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS Compliant. The need for equivalent parts arises from supply chain considerations, inventory availability, or specific application requirements where alternative manufacturers' solutions meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1822561 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Current rating (10 A), voltage rating (300 V), and wire gauge acceptance (16-24 AWG) must match exactly
• Mechanical Compatibility: 5-position configuration, 5.00mm pitch, vertical with board orientation, and through-hole mounting must be identical
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance status and MSL rating must be equivalent or superior
• Functional Equivalence: Wire termination method must provide equivalent electrical connection reliability

The WAGO Corporation 2086-3105 meets all substitution criteria through matching electrical ratings, identical pitch and position configuration, compatible through-hole mounting, and equivalent RoHS compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 1822561 and WAGO 2086-3105 are Active product status components with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply Chain Availability: Current inventory levels (Phoenix Contact: 1008 pcs; WAGO: 1218 pcs) may influence procurement decisions
• Packaging Format: Phoenix Contact is supplied in Tape & Reel format; WAGO is supplied in Tray format
• Compliance Requirements: Both components meet RoHS compliance; WAGO 2086-3105 carries ROHS3 designation and REACH Unaffected status
• Operating Temperature Range: WAGO 2086-3105 specifies -60°C to 105°C operating range; Phoenix Contact 1822561 does not specify this parameter
• Wire Termination Method: Phoenix Contact uses leg spring and push-in spring termination; WAGO uses push button actuated clamp termination

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WAGO 2086-3105 be used as a direct replacement for Phoenix Contact 1822561?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (10 A, 300 V), mechanical configuration (5 positions, 5.00mm pitch), wire gauge acceptance (16-24 AWG), mounting type (through hole), and compliance status (RoHS). The components are functionally equivalent for PCB integration.

Q: What are the differences in wire termination between these parts?

A: Phoenix Contact 1822561 uses screwless leg spring and push-in spring termination. WAGO 2086-3105 uses screwless push button actuated clamp termination. Both methods provide equivalent electrical connection without requiring external fasteners.

Q: Does packaging format affect compatibility?

A: No. Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Tray) affects only handling, storage, and automated assembly processes. It does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility on the PCB.

Q: Are there housing material differences that affect performance?

A: Phoenix Contact 1822561 uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP); WAGO 2086-3105 uses Polyphthalamide (PPA) glass-filled material. Both materials provide equivalent electrical insulation and mechanical stability for this application category.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on supply chain availability, packaging requirements, and specific operating temperature needs. WAGO 2086-3105 provides documented operating temperature range (-60°C to 105°C) and REACH compliance documentation, which may be advantageous for regulated applications.
