Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for terminal block connectors is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions and Levels: Must match exactly (2 positions, 1 level)
• Termination Style: Must be identical (screw termination)
• Terminal Width: Must be compatible (8.2mm)
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Substitute must accommodate the wire range of the original part
• Functional Type: Must serve the same ground/earth function
• Insulation Material: Must be equivalent polyamide construction
• Color Coding: Must maintain green/yellow earth ground identification

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 3044157 meets these criteria with compatible electrical and mechanical specifications within the allowed parameter range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3044157 is the designated manufacturer-recommended substitute for the discontinued 0442011 terminal block connector. Both components maintain identical mechanical compatibility (2 positions, 1 level, 8.2mm terminal width, screw termination) and functional equivalence as ground/earth connectors with polyamide insulation.

The substitute part 3044157 carries Active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and equivalent electrical performance for ground terminal applications. The 3044157 features an enhanced UL94 V-0 flammability rating compared to the V-2 rating of the original part, representing an improvement in material performance.

Wire gauge accommodation differs slightly: the original 0442011 supports 8-26 AWG, while the substitute 3044157 supports 8-24 AWG. This represents a compatible range overlap for standard applications within the 8-24 AWG specification. The substitute part is suitable for direct replacement in new designs and existing installations requiring ground terminal block connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 3044157 directly replace the 0442011 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical specifications (2 positions, 1 level, 8.2mm terminal width, screw termination), matching color coding (green/yellow), and equivalent polyamide insulation construction. The substitute is manufacturer-recommended for this application.

Q: What is the wire gauge difference between these parts?

A: The original 0442011 accommodates 8-26 AWG wire. The substitute 3044157 accommodates 8-24 AWG wire. For applications using wire gauges 8-24 AWG, both parts are fully compatible. Applications requiring 25-26 AWG wire must retain the original 0442011 specification.

Q: Does the flammability rating difference affect substitution?

A: The substitute 3044157 features UL94 V-0 flammability rating compared to the original V-2 rating. This represents an improvement in material performance and does not restrict substitution. Both ratings meet standard terminal block application requirements.

Q: Are packaging differences significant for component selection?

A: The original 0442011 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the substitute 3044157 is supplied in Box packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Selection should be based on procurement and inventory management requirements.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both the 0442011 and 3044157 maintain ROHS3 compliance. The substitute 3044157 carries REACH Affected status, while the original part is REACH Unaffected. Both components are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.69.8000.
