Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 5449607 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

  • 10-position configuration with 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch spacing
  • Female socket plug type with 90° wire entry orientation
  • Free-hanging in-line mounting capability
  • Minimum 8A current rating at 320V (IEC) or 8A at 300V (UL)
  • Wire gauge compatibility: 14-30 AWG minimum range
  • Screw-based termination mechanism
  • M2 screw size with 0.22-0.25 Nm torque specification
  • Polyamide housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The Phoenix Contact 1827208 meets all substitution criteria. While it employs a rising cage clamp termination variant and supports an extended wire gauge range (0.14-1.5mm²), it maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 5449607 across all critical parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1827208 is a direct functional equivalent to the 5449607 and is the appropriate selection for applications requiring this terminal block configuration. The 1827208 offers the following advantages:

  • Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
  • ROHS3 compliance provides enhanced regulatory alignment compared to the obsolete 5449607
  • Rising cage clamp termination offers improved wire retention characteristics while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications
  • Extended wire gauge support (0.14mm² minimum) provides additional flexibility for smaller conductor applications
  • Identical pitch, position count, voltage/current ratings, and mounting orientation ensure direct mechanical and electrical compatibility

Both parts share identical screw torque specifications, housing materials, flammability ratings, and contact finishes. The 1827208 is suitable for direct replacement in all applications where the 5449607 was previously specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1827208 directly replace the 5449607 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings (8A at 320V IEC, 8A at 300V UL), mechanical dimensions (10 positions at 0.150" pitch), mounting orientation (90° free-hanging in-line), and termination torque specifications (0.22-0.25 Nm). The 1827208 is a direct functional substitute.

Q: What is the difference between screw termination and rising cage clamp termination?

A: Both termination methods use M2 screws with identical torque specifications. Rising cage clamp termination in the 1827208 provides enhanced wire retention through a spring-loaded mechanism, while the 5449607 uses standard screw termination. Both achieve equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: Are there wire gauge compatibility differences between these parts?

A: The 5449607 supports 14-30 AWG (0.2-1.5mm²), while the 1827208 supports 14-30 AWG (0.14-1.5mm²). The 1827208 accommodates smaller conductors down to 0.14mm². Both parts fully support the 5449607 wire gauge range.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 5449607 is obsolete, meaning Phoenix Contact no longer manufactures or supports this part. The 1827208 is active, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and supply chain reliability for new designs and ongoing maintenance applications.

Q: Do both parts require the same installation torque?

A: Yes. Both the 5449607 and 1827208 specify identical M2 screw torque of 0.22-0.25 Nm (1.9-2.2 Lb-In). Installation procedures and torque tools are interchangeable.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 5449607 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 1827208 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility; packaging selection depends on procurement and inventory requirements.
