Phoenix Contact 1880300 Terminal Block Header – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1880300 is a 2-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded design, and 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch in 90° right-angle through-hole configuration. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The COMBICON EMSTBA series part operates at 12A (IEC) / 15A (UL) and 400V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with press-fit termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Phoenix Contact 1880300 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 2
• Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Header orientation: 90°, Right Angle
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Type: Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (4 Side)
• Current rating (IEC): 12A minimum
• Voltage rating (IEC): 400V minimum
• Current rating (UL): 10A minimum
• Voltage rating (UL): 300V minimum
• Flammability rating: UL94 V-0
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Identified Substitutes:

• Phoenix Contact 1757242 (COMBICON MSTBA series, Active status)
• Phoenix Contact 1954919 (COMBICON CCA series, Active status)

Both substitutes maintain electrical specifications and compliance requirements. Differences exist in termination style (solder vs. press-fit), housing material composition, and physical dimensions, which must be evaluated against specific application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1757242 (COMBICON MSTBA): This substitute maintains active product status and identical electrical specifications to the main part. The transition from press-fit to solder termination requires PCB design modification. Housing material changes from PBT to polyamide (PA/nylon), which may affect thermal and chemical resistance characteristics. Contact tail length reduction (0.138" vs. 0.165") requires verification against PCB pad layout. This part is suitable for applications where solder termination is acceptable and PCB redesign is feasible.

Phoenix Contact 1954919 (COMBICON CCA): This substitute provides active product status with UL current rating of 10A, which is lower than the main part's 15A UL rating. IEC ratings remain equivalent at 12A and 400V. Housing material is liquid crystal polymer (LCP), offering enhanced thermal and chemical resistance compared to PBT. Contact tail length is significantly shorter (0.102" vs. 0.165"), requiring careful PCB pad verification. This part is suitable for applications operating within 10A UL limits where enhanced material properties are beneficial.

Both substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level. Selection depends on termination method compatibility, current requirements, and physical space constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1757242 directly replace 1880300 without PCB modification? A: No. The 1757242 uses solder termination versus the 1880300's press-fit termination, requiring PCB pad redesign. Additionally, contact tail length differs (0.138" vs. 0.165"), necessitating pad layout verification.

Q: What is the primary difference between 1757242 and 1954919? A: The 1757242 uses polyamide (PA/nylon) housing with 0.138" contact tail length and 15A UL rating. The 1954919 uses liquid crystal polymer (LCP) housing with 0.102" contact tail length and 10A UL rating. Both use solder termination.

Q: Is the 1954919 suitable for applications requiring 15A UL current? A: No. The 1954919 is rated for 10A maximum under UL standards. For applications requiring 15A UL current, the 1757242 is the appropriate substitute.

Q: Do all three parts meet RoHS and flammability requirements? A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level.

Q: How does housing material affect component selection? A: Housing material affects thermal stability, chemical resistance, and mechanical properties. PBT (1880300) offers general-purpose performance. Polyamide (1757242) provides cost-effective durability. Liquid crystal polymer (1954919) offers superior thermal and chemical resistance. Selection depends on operating environment and temperature requirements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts? A: The 1880300 packaging is listed as unspecified. Both 1757242 and 1954919 are supplied in bulk packaging. Inventory availability differs: 1880300 (1161 pcs), 1757242 (1310 pcs), 1954919 (4437 pcs).
