1592674

Overview

Phoenix Contact 1592674 is a receptacle housing for circular metric connectors, belonging to the RC series. It features a straight head design with screw locking mechanism. The component serves as the enclosure for COMBI plugs, which are switchless capacity connectors compliant with IEC 61984. These plugs support nominal operating voltages of 500 V and rated currents up to 17.5 A, utilizing direct insertion connections for wire cross-sections ranging from 0.14 mm² to 1.5 mm².

Feature Summary

• Straight head receptacle housing with screw locking mechanism
• Compatible with COMBI plug inserts for switchless connection
• Supports direct insertion wiring technology
• Designed for industrial environments requiring reliable interconnection

Applications

• Railway industry equipment
• Mechanical engineering systems
• Plant engineering installations

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order corresponds to the RC series receptacle housing rather than the complete plug assembly. Confirm compatibility with the intended COMBI insert pin count and current rating requirements. Check for obsolescence status as this product line may be subject to discontinuation notices. Ensure the screw locking interface matches the mating connector specifications for secure installation in vibration-prone environments.

Selection Notes

Select this housing when a robust, straight-head enclosure is required for circular metric connectors. Ensure the chosen COMBI insert matches the application's voltage and current demands. Verify that the screw locking method is suitable for the mounting constraints. Consider the IP rating provided by the assembled unit rather than the housing alone for environmental protection needs.

Part Context

This component is part of Phoenix Contact's RC series of circular metric connectors. It functions as the outer shell for modular plug assemblies. The system allows for flexible configuration by pairing different housings with various COMBI inserts. This approach simplifies inventory management and enables customized solutions for diverse industrial connectivity requirements.

Replacement Considerations

The manufacturer indicates this product has entered the obsolescence phase. Officially confirmed substitute part number: 1554098. Consult technical documentation for dimensional and electrical compatibility before substitution.
