Phoenix Contact 1880465 Terminal Block Header – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1880465 is an 18-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on four sides, featuring 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch and right-angle through-hole mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. The part operates at 12A (IEC) / 15A (UL) and 400V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with tin-plated contacts and UL94 V-0 rated polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1880465 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: All substitutes must maintain 18 positions at 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch
• Header Type & Orientation: Male pins, shrouded (4 side), 90° right-angle configuration required
• Termination & Mounting: Solder termination with through-hole mounting mandatory
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum IEC current rating of 12A and voltage rating of 400V; UL ratings of 15A and 300V
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating required
• Contact Finish: Tin-plated contacts

The four substitute parts identified below meet these core substitution criteria. Variations in housing material, contact tail length, insulation height, and manufacturer series do not preclude functional equivalence when electrical and mechanical parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1757404 (COMBICON MSTBA series) is the primary substitute for the obsolete 1880465. Both are Phoenix Contact products with identical electrical ratings (12A IEC, 15A UL, 400V IEC, 300V UL), matching position count, pitch, and orientation. The 1757404 is active in production and carries ROHS3 compliance. Housing material differs (polyamide versus PBT), and contact tail length is slightly shorter (0.138" versus 0.165"), but these variations do not affect functional compatibility in standard through-hole solder applications.

Phoenix Contact 1827692 (COMBICON CCA series) provides an alternative within the Phoenix Contact product family. This part maintains the same position count, pitch, and orientation with identical IEC current rating (12A). However, the IEC voltage rating is reduced to 250V (versus 400V on the main part), making it suitable only for applications operating at or below 250V IEC. The contact tail length is significantly shorter (0.102"), which may require PCB layout verification.

Weidmüller 1775162001 and 1780340000 (Omnimate SL series) are cross-manufacturer substitutes with enhanced electrical performance. Both deliver 27.5A IEC and 18.5A UL ratings, exceeding the 1880465 specifications. Both maintain 400V IEC and 300V UL ratings, matching the main part. Contact tail lengths differ (0.059" and 0.126" respectively), requiring PCB footprint validation. Both are active products with RoHS compliance and glass-filled LCP housing.

Selection should prioritize product status (active versus obsolete), compliance certifications, and PCB layout compatibility based on contact tail length and insulation height variations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1757404 directly replace the 1880465 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (12A IEC, 15A UL, 400V IEC, 300V UL), 18-position configuration, 0.200" pitch, and right-angle through-hole mounting. The 1757404 is active in production, addressing the obsolescence of the 1880465. Housing material differs (polyamide versus PBT), but this does not affect electrical performance. Contact tail length is 0.138" versus 0.165" on the original; verify PCB hole spacing accommodates this 0.027" reduction.

Q: What is the voltage limitation of the Phoenix Contact 1827692?

A: The 1827692 operates at a maximum IEC voltage of 250V, compared to 400V on the 1880465. This part is suitable only for applications with voltage requirements at or below 250V IEC. If your design requires 400V operation, select the 1757404, Weidmüller 1775162001, or Weidmüller 1780340000 instead.

Q: How do the Weidmüller Omnimate SL parts compare to Phoenix Contact options?

A: The Weidmüller 1775162001 and 1780340000 deliver higher current ratings (27.5A IEC, 18.5A UL) than the 1880465 (12A IEC, 15A UL), while maintaining equivalent voltage ratings (400V IEC, 300V UL). Both are active products with RoHS compliance. The primary design consideration is contact tail length: 0.059" (1775162001) or 0.126" (1780340000) versus 0.165" on the original part. PCB layout must accommodate these dimensional differences.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1880465 is RoHS Compliant, and all four substitutes carry RoHS or ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting environmental regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the significance of contact tail length variation among substitutes?

A: Contact tail length determines the depth of solder penetration into PCB holes. The 1880465 has a 0.165" tail; substitutes range from 0.059" to 0.138". Shorter tails may require PCB hole depth adjustment or solder process optimization to ensure adequate joint formation. Verify PCB design specifications before substitution.

Q: Can I use the Weidmüller parts in applications rated for 12A at 400V?

A: Yes. The Weidmüller 1775162001 and 1780340000 are rated for 27.5A IEC and 400V IEC, exceeding the 1880465 specifications of 12A IEC and 400V IEC. These parts are electrically suitable for any application within the original part's current and voltage envelope. Design verification should confirm mechanical fit based on contact tail length and insulation height.
