Phoenix Contact 1912016 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1912016 is a 7-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 5.08mm pitch, designed for 180° free-hanging in-line applications. This component features screw-type rising cage clamp termination and is rated for 16A (IEC) / 16A (UL) at 630V (IEC) / 300V (UL). The part is active in production and RoHS3 compliant, making it suitable for industrial control and power distribution applications where reliable screw-terminal connections are required. Equivalent substitute parts may be necessary due to supply constraints, regional availability, or design flexibility requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1912016 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• 7-position configuration with female sockets
• 5.08mm (0.200") pitch spacing
• 180° free-hanging in-line mounting orientation
• Screw-type rising cage clamp termination
• M3 screw size
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• RoHS3 compliance

Secondary Compatibility Considerations:

• Current rating minimum 16A (UL standard)
• Voltage rating minimum 300V (UL standard)
• Wire gauge compatibility: 12-30 AWG
• Tin contact mating finish
• Retention latches on non-wire side

The two substitute parts listed below meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct functional replacement in applications using the Phoenix Contact 1912016.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1912016 (Primary Part) Recommended for applications requiring IEC compliance with 630V rating and exact 5.08mm pitch spacing. All electrical and mechanical parameters are fully specified. RoHS3 compliant and active in production.

Molex 0395300007 (Preferred Substitute) Direct pitch-compatible substitute at 5.08mm spacing with M3 screw size matching the primary part. Meets UL 300V / 15A rating and RoHS3 compliance. Wire gauge range 12-26 AWG covers the primary application window. Active production status ensures availability. Material flammability rating not specified in documentation.

Molex 0395200007 (Secondary Substitute) Functionally compatible with 5.00mm pitch spacing (0.003" deviation from primary part). Supports higher UL current rating of 18A and full 12-30 AWG wire gauge range. Screw size not specified in available documentation. Operating temperature range specified as -40°C to 115°C. REACH status listed as affected. Active production status confirmed.

Selection between substitutes depends on pitch tolerance requirements in the target application and availability of complete mechanical specifications for the Molex 0395200007.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Molex 0395200007 be used as a direct replacement for Phoenix Contact 1912016? A: The Molex 0395200007 operates at 5.00mm pitch versus the 5.08mm pitch of the Phoenix Contact 1912016. This 0.003" difference may affect mechanical fit in applications with tight pitch tolerances. Verify PCB or connector header spacing before substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two Molex substitutes? A: Molex 0395300007 matches the exact 5.08mm pitch and M3 screw size of the Phoenix Contact 1912016. Molex 0395200007 operates at 5.00mm pitch with unspecified screw size but supports higher current (18A) and full wire gauge range (12-30 AWG).

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes, all three parts carry RoHS3 compliance certification. The Molex 0395200007 is listed as REACH Affected, while the Phoenix Contact 1912016 and Molex 0395300007 are REACH Unaffected.

Q: What wire gauges are supported across all three parts? A: Phoenix Contact 1912016 and Molex 0395200007 both support 12-30 AWG. Molex 0395300007 supports 12-26 AWG, which covers most standard industrial applications but excludes the smallest gauges (28-30 AWG).

Q: Are torque specifications compatible? A: Phoenix Contact 1912016 specifies 0.5-0.6 Nm. Both Molex substitutes specify 0.56 Nm, which falls within the Phoenix Contact range and ensures compatible screw termination procedures.

Q: What is the significance of the M3 screw size specification? A: M3 screw size is explicitly specified for Phoenix Contact 1912016 and Molex 0395300007, ensuring compatible termination hardware. Molex 0395200007 does not specify screw size in available documentation, requiring verification before use.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing installations? A: Mechanical compatibility depends on pitch tolerance and screw size specifications in the target application. Electrical compatibility is confirmed for all three parts at UL 300V rating. Verify physical fit and termination hardware compatibility before field substitution.
