Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 5449869 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: 6 positions at 0.150" (3.81mm) spacing
• Connector Type & Gender: Plug with female sockets
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging, in-line orientation with 270° wire entry
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 8A current and 320V voltage (IEC standard)
• Wire Compatibility: Support for 14-30 AWG conductor range
• Termination Method: Screw-based connection
• Material & Safety: Polyamide housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1827017 meets all these criteria while offering enhanced specifications in certain areas, including improved wire gauge support (0.14-1.5mm²) and documented torque specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1827017 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 5449869 terminal block plug. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and safety certifications. The 1827017 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

The 1827017 incorporates a rising cage clamp termination mechanism in addition to screw connection, providing enhanced contact security. The documented torque specification (0.22-0.25 Nm) and extended wire strip length (7mm) represent engineering refinements over the original design. The ROHS3 compliance status of the 1827017 exceeds the RoHS compliance of the 5449869, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Both components are rated for identical electrical performance under IEC and UL standards, with equivalent current and voltage specifications. The wire gauge compatibility remains consistent across the 14-30 AWG range, with the 1827017 supporting an extended lower limit (0.14mm²) for finer conductor applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1827017 directly replace the 5449869 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components maintain identical pitch (0.150"), position count (6), connector type (plug with female sockets), mounting configuration (free hanging, in-line), and electrical ratings (8A, 320V IEC). Physical and electrical compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What is the significance of the rising cage clamp termination in the 1827017?

A: The rising cage clamp mechanism provides redundant contact retention alongside screw termination. This design enhancement improves connection reliability and is standard in the COMBICON MCVW series. The M2 screw size remains consistent with the original 5449869.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 1827017 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, representing current regulatory alignment. The 5449869 is RoHS compliant. Both maintain UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and equivalent electrical certifications under IEC and UL standards.

Q: Does the wire gauge range differ between these components?

A: The 1827017 supports 0.14-1.5mm² (14-30 AWG), extending the lower limit by 0.06mm² compared to the 5449869 (0.2-1.5mm²). This allows the substitute to accommodate finer conductor gauges while maintaining full compatibility with the original specification range.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to the 1827017?

A: The 1827017 is supplied in bulk packaging, compared to the 5449869 which had unspecified packaging. Verify bulk quantity requirements align with procurement specifications for your application.
