Phoenix Contact 5452717 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 5452717 is a 6-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch, designed for 90° free-hanging in-line applications. This component features screw termination, rated for 8A at 160V (IEC) and 300V (UL), and accommodates wire gauges from 14-30 AWG (0.2-1.5mm²). The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing maintenance and new designs requiring compatible connectivity solutions.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 5452717 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Connector Configuration: 6 positions, 0.150" (3.81mm) pitch, female socket type
Electrical Ratings: Minimum 8A current capacity and 160V voltage rating (IEC standard)
Mechanical Interface: 90° plug wire entry, free-hanging in-line mounting, M2 screw termination
Wire Compatibility: Support for 14-30 AWG wire gauge range
Compliance: RoHS compliance and equivalent certifications

The Phoenix Contact 1903083 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Both parts maintain identical position count, pitch, mounting orientation, electrical ratings, and wire gauge compatibility. Variations in termination mechanism (rising cage clamp versus standard screw) and minor wire gauge range adjustments (0.14-1.5mm² versus 0.2-1.5mm²) do not affect functional interchangeability in standard applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1903083 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 5452717. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts maintain identical IEC and UL electrical ratings (8A/160V IEC, 8A/300V UL), ensuring direct functional equivalence in power distribution applications.

Mechanical Interchangeability: Identical pitch (3.81mm), position count (6), mounting configuration (free-hanging in-line), and wire entry angle (90°) confirm mechanical compatibility with existing connector housings and PCB layouts.

Compliance Status: Both parts are RoHS compliant with equivalent certifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.90.4000), meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Product Availability: The 1903083 is currently active in production with confirmed inventory (1079 pcs), providing supply continuity for the obsolete 5452717.

Termination Mechanism Difference: The 1903083 employs rising cage clamp termination versus standard screw termination in the 5452717. This enhancement improves wire retention and reduces installation time without affecting electrical or mechanical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1903083 directly replace the 5452717 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, pitch, position count, and mounting configuration. The 1903083 is mechanically and electrically interchangeable with the 5452717 in all standard applications.

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

A: The 5452717 uses standard screw termination requiring manual torque application (0.2-0.25 Nm). The 1903083 uses rising cage clamp termination, which provides automatic wire retention and requires torque between 0.22-0.25 Nm. Both methods achieve equivalent electrical connection quality.

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

A: The 5452717 supports 0.2-1.5mm² wire gauge, while the 1903083 supports 0.14-1.5mm². The 1903083 accommodates a slightly wider lower range. Both parts support the standard 14-30 AWG range, ensuring compatibility with typical industrial wiring specifications.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The 1903083 is supplied in bulk packaging, compared to the original part's unspecified packaging. Bulk packaging is standard for production quantities and does not affect component performance or compatibility.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 5452717 and 1903083 are RoHS compliant with identical certifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.90.4000), meeting environmental and regulatory standards for industrial applications.

Q: Why is the 5452717 obsolete if the 1903083 is available?

A: The 5452717 belongs to the BCVP series, which has been superseded by the COMBICON MCVR series (1903083). Phoenix Contact transitioned to the newer series to provide enhanced termination technology and improved manufacturing efficiency while maintaining full backward compatibility.
