Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 5449885 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector Configuration: 8 positions, 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch, female socket type
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 8A current capacity (IEC) and 320V voltage rating (IEC)
• Mechanical Interface: 270° free-hanging in-line mounting orientation
• Termination Method: Screw-based wire connection
• Material Compliance: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance
• Wire Compatibility: Support for 14-30 AWG conductor range

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1827033 meets all critical substitution criteria, with enhanced specifications in wire gauge range and documented torque specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1827033 is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 5449885 model. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical interfaces, and material specifications. The 1827033 offers the advantage of active product status with current manufacturing support and enhanced documentation, including specified torque values (0.22-0.25 Nm) and wire strip length (7mm). The 1827033 employs a rising cage clamp termination mechanism in addition to screw termination, providing improved wire retention characteristics. Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and RoHS certification, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial control and automation applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1827033 directly replace the 5449885 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (0.150" / 3.81mm), position count (8), electrical ratings (8A/320V IEC), mounting orientation (270° free-hanging), and termination method (screw). Physical and electrical compatibility is confirmed.

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

A: The 1827033 incorporates a rising cage clamp mechanism alongside screw termination. This design provides dual wire retention: the cage clamp secures the conductor during screw tightening, reducing the risk of wire displacement during assembly and improving overall connection reliability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 5449885 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 1827033 is available in bulk packaging. Both are RoHS compliant and suitable for industrial applications.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by each part?

A: The 5449885 supports 14-30 AWG (0.2-1.5mm²). The 1827033 supports 14-30 AWG with an extended lower range of 0.14-1.5mm², providing compatibility with finer conductors.

Q: Is the 1827033 available in current inventory?

A: Yes. The 1827033 is classified as active product status with 2254 units in stock, compared to the obsolete 5449885 with 1120 units remaining.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Both components are UL94 V-0 rated and RoHS compliant. The 1827033 carries ROHS3 certification, representing the current regulatory standard.
