Phoenix Contact 1900222 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1900222 is a 17-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on four sides, featuring 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch and 90° right-angle through-hole mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

The primary reason for identifying substitute parts is the obsolete product status of the 1900222. Active equivalent models provide continuity of supply while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the specified parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1900222 is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• 17 positions with 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch
• 90° right-angle header orientation
• Male pins with 4-side shrouding
• Through-hole mounting configuration
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Tin contact mating finish
• Mating and mounting flange feature
• RoHS compliance
• Minimum electrical ratings: 12A IEC, 15A UL, 300V UL

Allowable Variations:

• Termination style (Press-Fit vs. Solder)
• Housing material (PBT vs. LCP)
• Contact tail length
• Insulation height (within tolerance)
• Color (Green vs. Black)
• Operating temperature range
• Contact material composition
• IEC voltage rating (minimum 320V acceptable)

The two identified substitutes meet all critical matching parameters while differing in termination methodology and housing material composition.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1776841 (COMBICON MSTB Series)

This substitute maintains identical electrical specifications to the main part (12A IEC, 15A UL, 400V IEC, 300V UL) and shares the same housing material (PBT) and color (Green). The primary difference is termination style: solder-based rather than press-fit. This part is active and carries RoHS compliance certification. Selection of this substitute is appropriate when solder termination is compatible with the PCB assembly process and when green housing color is required for visual identification or system standardization.

1836832 (COMBICON CC Series)

This substitute meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters with minor variations: 16A UL rating (exceeds 15A requirement), 320V IEC rating (meets minimum threshold), and different housing material (LCP vs. PBT). The contact tail length is significantly shorter (0.079" vs. 0.165"), which may affect PCB hole engagement depth. This part is active, RoHS compliant, and includes specified operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 100°C) and copper alloy contact material. Selection of this substitute is appropriate when the shorter contact tail length is compatible with PCB design and when black housing color is acceptable.

Both substitutes are active products with current manufacturing status, ensuring long-term supply availability compared to the obsolete 1900222.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1776841 be used as a direct replacement for the 1900222?

A: The 1776841 is electrically and mechanically compatible with the 1900222 for applications requiring 12A IEC, 15A UL, 400V IEC, and 300V UL ratings. The primary difference is termination method: the 1776841 uses solder termination instead of press-fit. Compatibility depends on whether the PCB assembly process supports solder termination and whether the identical green housing color is required.

Q: What is the significance of the contact tail length difference between these parts?

A: Contact tail length determines how deeply the component engages with PCB holes. The 1900222 has a 0.165" (4.19mm) tail, the 1776841 has 0.138" (4.60mm), and the 1836832 has 0.079" (2.00mm). Shorter tail lengths may result in reduced mechanical engagement with PCB holes. PCB design specifications must be reviewed to confirm compatibility with the shorter tail lengths of the substitute parts.

Q: Are both substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 1776841 and 1836832 are RoHS compliant, matching the compliance status of the main part 1900222.

Q: What is the difference between PBT and LCP housing materials?

A: The 1900222 and 1776841 use Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) housing, while the 1836832 uses Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP). Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. LCP offers enhanced dimensional stability and higher temperature performance, as evidenced by the 1836832's specified operating range of -40°C ~ 100°C.

Q: Can the 1836832 be used in applications requiring 400V IEC rating?

A: The 1836832 is rated for 320V IEC, which is below the 400V IEC specification of the main part. Applications requiring 400V IEC operation must use either the 1900222 or 1776841. The 1836832 is suitable for applications with maximum 320V IEC requirements.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The main part 1900222 is listed with unspecified packaging. Both substitutes (1776841 and 1836832) are supplied in bulk packaging, which is standard for terminal block components.

Q: Are there any color considerations for system integration?

A: The 1900222 and 1776841 are green, while the 1836832 is black. If color coding is used for system identification or visual standardization, the color difference of the 1836832 must be considered during integration planning.
