Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 5452698 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

Number of positions: 2
Pitch: 0.138" (4.60mm)
Plug wire entry orientation: 90°
Mounting type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
Type: Plug with female sockets
Current rating: 8A (IEC/UL)
Voltage rating: 160V (IEC) and 300V (UL)
Wire gauge compatibility: 14-30 AWG (0.2-1.5mm²)
Screw size: M2
Insulation height: 0.752" (19.10mm)

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1800214 satisfies all mandatory matching parameters. While the 1800214 employs a screw-clamping yoke (tension sleeve) termination style compared to the standard screw termination of the 5452698, both termination methods are functionally equivalent for this connector class and maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance within the specified operating parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1800214 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 5452698. Both components are RoHS compliant and manufactured by Phoenix Contact, ensuring regulatory alignment and supply chain continuity.

The 1800214 holds active product status, providing long-term availability and manufacturing support. The substitute part incorporates an enhanced termination mechanism (screw-clamping yoke with tension sleeve) that maintains electrical and mechanical equivalence while offering improved contact reliability.

The 1800214 includes UL94 V-0 material flammability certification, providing additional safety documentation compared to the main part specification. This certification does not alter functional compatibility but represents an enhancement in documented safety performance.

Both parts operate identically within the specified electrical parameters (8A, 160V IEC, 300V UL) and mechanical constraints (2 positions, 4.60mm pitch, 90° wire entry, M2 screw fastening). Direct substitution is supported for all applications where the 5452698 was originally specified.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1800214 directly replace the 5452698 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 1800214 matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the 5452698, including current rating (8A), voltage ratings (160V IEC / 300V UL), connector pitch (4.60mm), wire entry angle (90°), and screw fastening specifications (M2). Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between screw termination and screw-clamping yoke termination?

A: Both termination methods secure wire connections using M2 fasteners. The screw-clamping yoke (tension sleeve) design employed in the 1800214 provides enhanced contact pressure distribution and improved vibration resistance compared to standard screw termination. Both methods are functionally equivalent for this connector class and maintain identical electrical performance.

Q: Why is the 5452698 classified as obsolete?

A: The 5452698 (BCVP series) has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. The 1800214 (COMBICON MCVR series) represents the current active product line for this connector configuration and is the recommended replacement for new designs and ongoing system support.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 5452698 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 1800214 is supplied in bulk packaging. This difference does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.

Q: Is the 1800214 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 5452698 and 1800214 are RoHS compliant. The 1800214 additionally carries UL94 V-0 material flammability certification.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with the 1800214?

A: The 1800214 accepts wire gauges from 14-30 AWG, matching the 5452698 specification. Wire strip length is optimized for this gauge range.
