Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 1937460 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: 8 positions at 0.138" (4.60mm) spacing
• Connector Type: Header with male pins, shrouded (4 side)
• Orientation: Vertical mounting configuration
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 8A per position and 300V operating voltage
• Mounting Method: Through-hole solder termination capability
• Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The On Shore Technology Inc. OSTOQ081550 qualifies as a substitute based on matching these core parameters. Both components share identical position count, pitch, shrouded male pin configuration, vertical orientation, and equivalent electrical ratings. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and RoHS certification status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The On Shore Technology OSTOQ081550 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 1937460. Selection is based on:

• Electrical Equivalence: Both components meet 300V UL rating and support 8-position configuration at 4.60mm pitch
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical shrouded male pin header design with vertical orientation ensures PCB footprint compatibility
• Compliance Status: Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating; OSTOQ081550 carries ROHS3 compliance, exceeding the original RoHS requirement
• Product Availability: OSTOQ081550 maintains active product status with current inventory, addressing the obsolescence of the original part

The OSTOQ081550 is suitable for direct replacement in applications requiring 8-position terminal block headers with 4.6mm pitch and vertical through-hole mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the OSTOQ081550 be used as a direct replacement for the Phoenix Contact 1937460?

A: Yes. Both components share identical position count (8), pitch (4.60mm), connector type (shrouded male pin header), orientation (vertical), and electrical ratings (300V UL). The OSTOQ081550 is an active product, making it suitable for applications where the obsolete 1937460 is no longer available.

Q: Are there differences in mounting between these two parts?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1937460 is specified as through-hole mounting, while the OSTOQ081550 is specified as solder mounting. Both are compatible with standard PCB solder termination processes. Verify PCB pad design matches the contact tail length specifications: 1937460 at 0.134" (3.40mm) and OSTOQ081550 at 0.138" (4.60mm).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both components carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. The OSTOQ081550 carries ROHS3 compliance, which exceeds the RoHS compliance of the original 1937460. Both are suitable for applications requiring these certifications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the substitute part?

A: The OSTOQ081550 operates across -30°C to 105°C. The original 1937460 operating temperature specification was not provided in the component data.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1937460 packaging specification was not provided. The OSTOQ081550 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement process.
