Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 1777736 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Identical manufacturer (Phoenix Contact) and series (COMBICON PC)
• Matching connector type (Plug, Female Sockets) and configuration (3-position)
• Identical pitch specification (0.300" / 7.62mm)
• Identical plug wire entry orientation (180°)
• Identical mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Matching housing material (Polyamide/Nylon) and flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Identical screw size (M3) and wire strip length (10mm)
• Identical insulation height (0.776" / 19.70mm)
• Matching voltage rating (1 kV IEC, 600V UL)
• Identical contact mating finish (Tin)
• Identical retention feature (Latches on Non-Wire Side)

The 1777736 represents an active product with enhanced electrical performance characteristics compared to the obsolete 1848902.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1777736 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 1848902. Selection of the 1777736 is supported by:

• Identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications ensuring direct physical and functional compatibility
• Active product status with current manufacturing and supply chain availability
• Enhanced current rating (41A vs. 20A) providing increased capacity margin for existing applications
• Expanded wire gauge acceptance range (8-24 AWG vs. 10-30 AWG) offering greater termination flexibility
• Rising cage clamp termination technology providing improved contact reliability compared to standard screw termination
• ROHS3 compliance meeting current regulatory requirements
• Identical voltage ratings and flammability certifications maintaining safety and performance standards

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1777736 be used as a direct replacement for the 1848902?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (7.62mm), connector type (3-position plug with female sockets), mounting configuration (180° free-hanging in-line), housing material, and electrical ratings (1 kV / 600V). Physical and functional compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The 1777736 features rising cage clamp termination versus standard screw termination on the 1848902. The 1777736 has a higher current rating (41A vs. 20A) and accepts a wider wire gauge range (8-24 AWG vs. 10-30 AWG). The 1777736 is an active product while the 1848902 is obsolete.

Q: Are there packaging differences?

A: The 1848902 packaging is listed as unspecified, while the 1777736 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect component functionality or compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both components meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and have MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). The 1777736 carries ROHS3 compliance while the 1848902 is RoHS compliant. Both are REACH unaffected and classified as EAR99.

Q: What is the screw torque specification for each part?

A: The 1848902 requires 0.5-0.6 Nm (4.4-5.3 Lb-In) torque. The 1777736 allows 0.5-0.8 Nm (4.4-7.1 Lb-In) torque. Both use M3 screws.
