Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1822972 is determined by strict equivalence in the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Performance: Current rating (10A minimum), voltage rating (300V minimum), and contact material compatibility
• Mechanical Compatibility: 2-position configuration, 5.00mm pitch spacing, horizontal board-mounted orientation, and through-hole mounting footprint
• Termination Method: Screwless push-in spring wire termination for tool-free installation
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance status and MSL rating for moisture sensitivity

The WAGO Corporation 2086-3202 meets all substitution criteria through equivalent electrical ratings, identical pitch and position configuration, compatible through-hole mounting, and matching RoHS compliance. Both parts accommodate 16-24 AWG wire and maintain 10A/300V performance specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 1822972 and WAGO 2086-3202 are active production components with full RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Phoenix Contact 1822972: Primary choice when LCP housing material is specified or when leg spring termination is required for specific PCB design constraints.

WAGO 2086-3202: Suitable alternative offering push-button clamp termination with glass-filled PPA housing and extended operating temperature range (-60°C to 105°C). This part provides enhanced mechanical durability through glass-filled polymer construction and is available in higher inventory quantities.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, pitch spacing, and through-hole mounting compatibility, ensuring direct PCB footprint interchangeability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the WAGO 2086-3202 be used as a direct replacement for the Phoenix Contact 1822972?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (2), current/voltage ratings (10A/300V), wire gauge compatibility (16-24 AWG), and through-hole mounting configuration. PCB footprints are directly compatible.

Q: What is the difference in wire termination between these parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1822972 uses leg spring push-in termination, while the WAGO 2086-3202 uses push-button clamp termination. Both are screwless methods; the WAGO variant requires button actuation for wire insertion and removal.

Q: Are there differences in housing material that affect performance?

A: The Phoenix Contact uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) housing, while the WAGO uses glass-filled Polyphthalamide (PPA). Both materials provide adequate insulation and mechanical strength for the specified electrical ratings. The glass-filled PPA offers enhanced rigidity and thermal stability.

Q: Do both parts have the same environmental compliance?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). The WAGO part carries ROHS3 designation and REACH unaffected status, indicating compliance with current European environmental regulations.

Q: What is the inventory availability difference?

A: Phoenix Contact 1822972 has 895 pieces in stock (Tape & Reel packaging), while WAGO 2086-3202 has 1808 pieces available (Tray packaging). Packaging format may affect handling and assembly line integration.
