Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Phoenix Contact 1884128 is based on the following critical parameters that must align for functional compatibility:

• Series Compatibility: Both parts must belong to the HEAVYCON® CK 1.6-ER series to ensure mechanical and electrical interface compatibility
• Contact Type: Socket configuration required for proper mating with pin contacts
• Termination Method: Crimp termination must be maintained for consistent assembly processes
• Wire Gauge Range: The substitute part wire gauge range must accommodate or overlap with the original specification
• Contact Finish: Material composition affects electrical performance and corrosion resistance
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status must be maintained

The identified substitute part 1004362 shares the same series, contact type, termination method, and regulatory compliance status, making it a valid alternative despite differences in wire gauge range and contact finish material.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1004362 is identified as an active substitute for the obsolete 1884128. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for applications requiring environmental and safety certifications.

The primary consideration for selection is wire gauge compatibility. The 1884128 accommodates 20-26 AWG conductors, while the 1004362 is rated for 17-22 AWG. The overlap range of 20-22 AWG permits direct substitution for applications utilizing conductors within this common range. Applications requiring wire gauges above 22 AWG or below 17 AWG fall outside the substitution window and require alternative solutions.

Contact finish differs between the two parts: silver versus nickel silver. Both finishes provide corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity suitable for heavy duty connector applications. The nickel silver finish of the 1004362 offers equivalent performance characteristics for standard industrial environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1004362 directly replace the 1884128 in all applications?

A: Direct substitution is valid only for applications using wire conductors within the 20-22 AWG overlap range. Applications requiring 23-26 AWG conductors cannot use the 1004362 due to wire gauge limitations.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between silver and nickel silver?

A: Both silver and nickel silver finishes provide adequate electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for heavy duty connector applications. The choice between them depends on specific environmental conditions and application requirements, but both are functionally equivalent for standard industrial use.

Q: Why is the 1884128 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Phoenix Contact. The 1004362, classified as active, represents the current production alternative within the HEAVYCON® CK 1.6-ER series.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 1884128 packaging specification is not provided. The 1004362 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, ensuring equivalent regulatory compliance for applications requiring these certifications.
