Phoenix Contact 5451239 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 5451239 is a 6-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, designed for 90° free-hanging in-line applications. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The BCVP series plug accommodates wire gauges from 12-30 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) with screw termination and meets both IEC and UL electrical standards.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for terminal block plugs is determined by strict alignment of electrical and mechanical parameters. The Phoenix Contact 1835135 qualifies as a functional substitute based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters (Substitution Basis):

Number of positions: 6
Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm)
Type: Plug, Female Sockets
Plug wire entry orientation: 90°
Mounting configuration: Free Hanging (In-Line)
Wire gauge compatibility: 12-30 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²)
Current rating - IEC: 12A
Voltage rating - IEC: 630V
Current rating - UL: 15A (exceeds minimum requirement)
Voltage rating - UL: 300V
Housing material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
Flammability rating: UL94 V-0
Screw size: M3
Torque specification: 0.5-0.6 Nm (4.4-5.3 Lb-In)

Variation in Termination Style: The 1835135 employs a Rising Cage Clamp termination mechanism versus the standard screw termination of the 5451239. Both termination methods are screw-actuated and compatible with the specified wire gauge range and torque parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1835135 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 5451239 based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The 1835135 maintains active product status with current manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance, providing supply chain continuity for applications requiring 6-position, 5.08mm pitch terminal block plugs with 90° wire entry and free-hanging mounting.

The Rising Cage Clamp termination mechanism in the 1835135 operates within the same M3 screw torque specification (0.5-0.6 Nm) and accommodates the identical wire gauge range (12-30 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²). The UL current rating of 15A in the substitute exceeds the 12A requirement of the original part, maintaining full electrical compatibility.

Both components meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and are housed in polyamide nylon material. Selection of the 1835135 eliminates obsolescence risk while preserving mechanical and electrical interface compatibility with existing connector housings and mating receptacles designed for 5.08mm pitch configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1835135 directly replace the 5451239 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (6), wire entry angle (90°), mounting type (free-hanging in-line), wire gauge compatibility (12-30 AWG), and electrical ratings (12A IEC, 630V IEC, 300V UL). The M3 screw torque specification is identical (0.5-0.6 Nm). Physical mating with corresponding receptacles and connector housings is preserved.

Q: What is the difference between screw termination and Rising Cage Clamp termination?

A: Both termination methods are screw-actuated. Standard screw termination uses a captive screw to compress wire directly against a contact. Rising Cage Clamp termination uses a screw-driven mechanism that raises a cage structure to secure the wire. Both methods operate within the same torque range and wire gauge specifications for this product category.

Q: Does the higher UL current rating (15A vs. 12A) of the 1835135 affect compatibility?

A: No. A higher current rating indicates increased capacity and does not compromise compatibility. The 1835135 can safely handle applications designed for the 12A rating of the 5451239. The voltage ratings (300V UL, 630V IEC) remain identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 5451239 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 1835135 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are available in new original stock condition. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each part?

A: The 5451239 is RoHS Compliant. The 1835135 is ROHS3 Compliant, representing current regulatory alignment. Both meet UL94 V-0 flammability standards and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications.
