Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1860728 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 10
• Pitch: 0.150" (3.81mm)
• Header orientation: Vertical
• Type: Header with male pins, shrouded (4 side)
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Current rating: 8A (IEC/UL)
• Voltage rating: 250V (IEC) / 300V (UL)
• Housing material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• Contact mating finish: Tin

Allowable Variations:

• Termination style: Press-fit or solder
• Contact tail length: Minor dimensional variations acceptable within mechanical compatibility constraints
• Series designation: Different COMBICON series permitted if all electrical and mechanical parameters align
• Product status: Active status preferred over obsolete for new procurement

The Phoenix Contact 1860728 has one identified substitute: 1803507 (COMBICON MCV series).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1803507 is the identified substitute for the obsolete 1860728. Both components share identical electrical ratings (8A at 250V IEC, 8A at 300V UL), mechanical configuration (10 positions, 0.150" pitch, vertical orientation, shrouded male pins), and material specifications (PBT housing, UL94 V-0 rating).

The primary distinction is termination methodology: the 1860728 uses press-fit termination, while the 1803507 employs solder termination. This difference requires PCB design modification to accommodate solder tail insertion rather than press-fit holes. The 1803507 also features a slightly shorter contact tail length (0.134" versus 0.150"), which must be verified for mechanical clearance in the target application.

The 1803507 holds active product status with ROHS3 compliance, providing superior long-term availability and regulatory alignment compared to the obsolete 1860728. Both components maintain MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity), ensuring equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1803507 directly replace the 1860728 without PCB modification?

A: No. The 1860728 uses press-fit termination (requiring press-fit holes), while the 1803507 uses solder termination (requiring solder pads). PCB redesign is necessary. Additionally, the contact tail length differs (0.150" versus 0.134"), requiring verification of mechanical fit.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components are rated at 8A (IEC/UL) and 250V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with identical housing material (PBT), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and contact finish (tin).

Q: Why is the 1860728 listed as obsolete?

A: The 1860728 is classified as obsolete by Phoenix Contact. The 1803507 (COMBICON MCV series) represents the active product line replacement within the same electrical and mechanical specification class.

Q: What is the difference between COMBICON EMCV and COMBICON MCV series?

A: Both are Phoenix Contact COMBICON terminal block series. The primary functional difference is termination style: EMCV uses press-fit, while MCV uses solder. Electrical and mechanical parameters remain equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 1860728 is RoHS Compliant, while the 1803507 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The 1803507 includes REACH Unaffected status.

Q: Can I use the 1803507 in new designs?

A: Yes. The 1803507 is active product status with current compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected), making it suitable for new design implementations. Ensure your PCB design accommodates solder termination and the 0.134" contact tail length.
