Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the OSTH415705C is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position Count & Pitch: 15 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) spacing (non-negotiable for mechanical and electrical compatibility)
• Connector Type: Plug with female sockets (required for mating with corresponding receptacles)
• Termination Method: Screwless push-in spring technology (ensures compatibility with existing wire termination practices)
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging in-line orientation (maintains form factor in existing installations)
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 300V UL voltage rating and support for 12-26 AWG wire gauge (meets or exceeds original specifications)
• Compliance Standards: UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance (ensures regulatory alignment)

The Phoenix Contact 1910652 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all critical parameters while offering enhanced electrical performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1910652 is qualified as a direct substitute for the obsolete OSTH415705C based on functional equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both components maintain identical position counts, pitch spacing, termination methodology, and voltage/current ratings within UL specifications.

The primary design consideration is the plug wire entry orientation: the OSTH415705C features 90° entry while the 1910652 provides 180° entry. This difference requires verification against existing mechanical installation constraints and cable routing requirements in the target application.

Both components maintain equivalent compliance certifications (UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS standards), ensuring regulatory alignment for replacement scenarios. The 1910652 carries active product status with current manufacturing support, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete OSTH415705C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 1910652 directly replace the OSTH415705C in existing installations?

A: Electrical and functional compatibility is confirmed across all rated parameters. Physical installation feasibility depends on the wire entry angle requirement: the 1910652 uses 180° entry versus the original 90° configuration. Mechanical fit within the existing enclosure or cable routing must be verified before implementation.

Q: Are there differences in wire gauge compatibility?

A: Both components support identical wire gauge ranges (12-26 AWG). No adjustment to wire termination practices is required when substituting.

Q: What is the significance of the different plug wire entry angles?

A: The wire entry angle (90° versus 180°) affects cable routing geometry and space requirements within the installation. The 90° entry of the original part may require different cable bend radii and positioning compared to the 180° entry of the substitute. Physical layout verification is necessary.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The OSTH415705C is ROHS3 compliant, and the Phoenix Contact 1910652 is RoHS compliant. Both meet current regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The Phoenix Contact 1910652 is currently in active production with 972 pieces available in stock, providing reliable supply availability compared to the obsolete OSTH415705C.
