Phoenix Contact 1914084 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1914084 is a 5-position terminal block header with male pins, featuring a shrouded 4-side design and 0.197" (5.00mm) vertical pitch for 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 part operates at 12A (IEC) / 12A (UL) and 230V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with press-fit termination and green polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing rated UL94 V-0. RoHS compliance and tin contact mating finish are standard specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1914084 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Current rating (minimum 12A IEC), voltage rating (minimum 230V IEC / 300V UL)
• Physical Compatibility: 5 positions, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, vertical orientation, through-hole mounting
• Connector Type: Male pins with shrouded design
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The two identified substitutes meet these core requirements with variations in termination style (solder vs. press-fit), housing material, and voltage ratings that remain within or exceed the original specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1776919 is the primary substitute for the 1914084. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (12A IEC, 300V UL), physical dimensions, and connector configuration. The 1776919 features enhanced IEC voltage rating (400V vs. 230V), maintains UL94 V-0 compliance, and holds active product status with ROHS3 certification. The primary design difference is solder termination versus press-fit, requiring PCB layout adjustment. This part is recommended for applications requiring direct functional replacement with modern compliance standards.

Phoenix Contact 1837394 provides an alternative with elevated UL current rating (16A vs. 12A) and liquid crystal polymer housing. The 1837394 operates at -40°C minimum temperature and features copper alloy contacts. Housing material and flammability rating differ from the original specification. This part is suitable for applications where higher current capacity and extended temperature range are beneficial, with the understanding that housing material and color differ from the original design.

Both substitutes maintain the 5-position, 5.00mm pitch vertical through-hole configuration and tin contact finish required for mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1776919 directly replace the 1914084 on existing PCBs?

A: The 1776919 shares identical pitch, position count, and connector type. The primary difference is termination style: the 1914084 uses press-fit termination while the 1776919 requires solder termination. PCB pad design must accommodate solder termination. Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference between 1914084 (230V IEC) and 1776919 (400V IEC)?

A: The 1776919 exceeds the original IEC voltage specification, providing additional safety margin. Both parts meet the 300V UL requirement. The 1776919 is suitable for applications originally specified for the 1914084.

Q: Why does the 1837394 have a different housing material (LCP vs. PBT)?

A: Liquid crystal polymer offers different thermal and mechanical properties compared to polybutylene terephthalate. The 1837394 supports -40°C operating temperature and higher UL current rating (16A). Material selection depends on application thermal and mechanical requirements.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: The 1914084 is RoHS Compliant. Both substitutes (1776919 and 1837394) are ROHS3 Compliant, representing current regulatory standards. All three parts meet RoHS requirements.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these substitutes?

A: The 1914084 is listed with unspecified packaging. The 1776919 and 1837394 are supplied in bulk packaging. Procurement quantities and handling procedures may differ from the original part.
