Phoenix Contact 1880452 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1880452 is a 17-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on four sides, featuring 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch and 90° right-angle through-hole mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The part operates at 12A (IEC) / 15A (UL) and 400V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with press-fit termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1880452 is determined by strict alignment with the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 17
• Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Header orientation: 90°, Right Angle
• Type: Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (4 Side)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Current rating (IEC): 12A minimum
• Voltage rating (IEC): 400V minimum
• Material flammability: UL94 V-0
• Contact mating finish: Tin

Allowable Variations:

• Termination style: Press-fit or solder acceptable (both provide electrical continuity through different mechanical methods)
• Housing material: PBT, Polyamide (PA/Nylon), or Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) acceptable (all meet UL94 V-0 requirement)
• Contact tail length: Variation acceptable within through-hole PCB design constraints
• Insulation height: Minor variation acceptable (within 0.004" tolerance range)
• Product status: Active preferred over obsolete for new procurement
• RoHS compliance: RoHS3 or RoHS Compliant both acceptable

The identified substitute parts 1757394 and 1827689 meet all critical matching parameters while offering active product status and alternative termination methods.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part 1757394 (COMBICON MSTBA Series): This substitute offers the closest electrical specification match to the 1880452, maintaining identical 12A (IEC) / 15A (UL) current ratings and 400V (IEC) / 300V (UL) voltage ratings. The transition from press-fit to solder termination requires PCB design verification for pad layout compatibility. Active product status ensures long-term availability. ROHS3 compliance exceeds the original RoHS requirement. Housing material change from PBT to Polyamide (PA/Nylon) maintains UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Contact tail length reduction (0.138" vs. 0.165") requires PCB hole depth confirmation.

Part 1827689 (COMBICON CCA Series): This substitute maintains the 17-position, 5.08mm pitch, and 90° right-angle configuration with identical UL94 V-0 flammability rating and tin contact finish. The voltage rating reduction to 250V (IEC) represents a design constraint that must be evaluated against system requirements. Solder termination applies. Active product status supports procurement continuity. Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) housing material provides enhanced thermal and chemical resistance while maintaining flammability compliance. Shortest contact tail length (0.102") requires verification against PCB specifications.

Both substitutes are electrically and mechanically compatible within the specified parameter constraints. Selection depends on termination method preference, PCB design specifications, and voltage requirement alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1880452 be directly replaced with part 1757394?

A: Direct replacement is possible if the PCB design accommodates solder termination instead of press-fit and if the contact tail length of 0.138" (versus 0.165") is compatible with the PCB hole depth. Electrical specifications are identical.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two substitute parts?

A: Part 1757394 maintains the full 400V (IEC) / 300V (UL) voltage rating, while part 1827689 operates at 250V (IEC). Both share identical current ratings (12A IEC / 15A UL). Housing material differs: 1757394 uses Polyamide (PA/Nylon), while 1827689 uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP). Contact tail lengths vary: 1757394 at 0.138" and 1827689 at 0.102".

Q: Are all three parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Mechanical interchangeability depends on PCB design specifications. All three parts share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (17), orientation (90° right angle), and shrouded male pin configuration. Variations in contact tail length (0.165", 0.138", 0.102") and insulation height (0.339", 0.339", 0.337") require PCB hole depth and clearance verification.

Q: Does the change from press-fit to solder termination affect electrical performance?

A: No. Both termination methods provide equivalent electrical continuity. The change affects assembly process and PCB pad design requirements only.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Part 1757394 is ROHS3 compliant, and part 1827689 is RoHS compliant. Both exceed the original 1880452 RoHS compliance requirement.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on system voltage requirements. If 400V (IEC) operation is required, part 1757394 is the appropriate choice. If 250V (IEC) operation is acceptable, part 1827689 offers alternative housing material benefits. Both are active products with confirmed long-term availability.

Q: What is the impact of housing material differences?

A: All three housing materials (PBT, Polyamide/Nylon, and LCP) meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Material selection affects thermal conductivity, chemical resistance, and mechanical properties. Polyamide (PA/Nylon) and LCP provide enhanced performance in specific environmental conditions while maintaining electrical safety compliance.
