Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 1848915 has one direct equivalent: part number 1777749. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

• Number of positions: 4
• Pitch spacing: 0.300" (7.62mm)
• Plug wire entry orientation: 180°
• Termination style: Screw - Rising Cage Clamp
• Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Housing material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
• Screw size: M3
• Series compatibility: COMBICON PC

The substitute part 1777749 maintains all these core mechanical and electrical interface parameters, ensuring direct compatibility in applications originally designed for the 1848915.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1777749 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 1848915. Both components share identical mechanical interfaces, connector geometry, and core electrical specifications for voltage (1 kV IEC, 600V UL).

The 1777749 offers enhanced current capacity (41A IEC/UL versus 20A IEC/UL) and expanded wire gauge compatibility (8-24 AWG / 0.2-10mm² versus 10-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm²). These improvements provide greater flexibility in wire selection while maintaining full backward compatibility with existing connector housings and mating interfaces.

The 1777749 holds active product status with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment. Both components maintain identical flammability ratings (UL94 V-0), moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1), and REACH compliance status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1777749 directly replace the 1848915 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components maintain identical pitch (7.62mm), connector orientation (180°), termination method (screw-rising cage clamp), and mounting configuration (free-hanging in-line). Mechanical and electrical interfaces are fully compatible.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and electrical ratings. The 1777749 is active production, while the 1848915 is obsolete. The 1777749 supports higher current capacity (41A versus 20A) and accommodates a broader wire gauge range (8-24 AWG versus 10-30 AWG). Both maintain identical voltage specifications and housing materials.

Q: Are there wire gauge compatibility considerations?

A: The 1777749 accepts wire gauges from 8-24 AWG (0.2-10mm²), while the 1848915 accepts 10-30 AWG (0.2-4mm²). Applications using wire gauges within the 10-24 AWG range are fully compatible with both parts. Applications requiring gauges smaller than 10 AWG or larger than 24 AWG must use the 1848915 specifications.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 1848915 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 1777749 is supplied in bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and handling but does not impact component functionality or compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1848915 is RoHS Compliant, and the 1777749 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current environmental regulations. The 1777749 represents the updated compliance standard.
