Phoenix Contact 1914852 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1914852 is a 2-position terminal block header with male pins, featuring a shrouded 4-side design and 0.197" (5.00mm) vertical pitch. 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 320V (IEC) / 300V (UL), with press-fit termination and through-hole mounting.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1914852 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Current rating (IEC/UL) and voltage rating (IEC/UL) must meet or exceed the original specification
• Physical Compatibility: Number of positions (2), pitch (5.00mm), header orientation (vertical), and mounting type (through hole) must be identical
• Connector Type: Male pins with shrouded (4-side) design required
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance status and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0) must be maintained

The identified substitute parts (1755516 and 1837022) maintain these core parameters while differing in termination style (solder vs. press-fit), housing material composition, and product status (active vs. obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Phoenix Contact 1755516 is the primary substitute for the 1914852. This part maintains identical electrical ratings (12A IEC, 300V UL), physical dimensions, and connector configuration. The transition from press-fit to solder termination requires PCB design modification but provides equivalent electrical performance. The part is active in production with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability. Housing material differs (Polyamide vs. Polybutylene Terephthalate), but both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Phoenix Contact 1837022 serves as a secondary substitute with enhanced current rating (16A UL vs. 12A UL). The reduced contact tail length (0.079" vs. 0.154") necessitates PCB layout verification. This part is active in production and RoHS compliant. The Liquid Crystal Polymer housing material and Copper Alloy contacts provide alternative material specifications. Operating temperature specification (-40°C) is provided for this variant.

Both substitutes maintain the 2-position, 5.00mm pitch, vertical orientation, and shrouded male pin configuration required for functional equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1914852 be directly replaced with the 1755516 without PCB modification?

A: No. The 1914852 uses press-fit termination while the 1755516 requires solder termination. PCB pad design and hole specifications must be modified accordingly. Electrical performance remains equivalent.

Q: What is the primary difference between the 1755516 and 1837022 substitutes?

A: The 1755516 maintains the original 12A IEC / 12A UL current rating with 0.154" contact tail length. The 1837022 provides 12A IEC / 16A UL current rating with a shorter 0.079" contact tail length. Housing materials also differ (Polyamide vs. Liquid Crystal Polymer).

Q: Are both substitute parts available in active production?

A: Yes. Both the 1755516 and 1837022 are classified as active products, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete 1914852.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same voltage ratings?

A: The 1755516 exceeds the original IEC voltage rating (400V vs. 320V) while maintaining UL ratings (300V). The 1837022 does not specify an IEC voltage rating. Both maintain the 300V UL rating of the original part.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute parts?

A: The 1755516 and 1837022 are supplied in bulk packaging, differing from the original part's packaging specification.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 1755516 is ROHS3 compliant and the 1837022 is RoHS compliant, maintaining regulatory compliance with the original 1914852.
