PT 2,5/ 3-PVH-5,0 BD:24-26 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact PT 2,5/ 3-PVH-5,0 BD:24-26 is a 3-position terminal block plug with female sockets, designed for 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch applications with 180° free-hanging (in-line) mounting. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

The necessity to identify substitute parts stems from the product's obsolete status, which may result in supply constraints or discontinuation. Equivalent alternatives must maintain compatibility across critical electrical and mechanical parameters to ensure seamless integration into existing or new applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the PT 2,5/ 3-PVH-5,0 BD:24-26 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Pitch and Position Count: 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch with 3 positions ensures mechanical and electrical alignment with mating connectors
• Plug Configuration: Female socket type with 180° wire entry orientation maintains installation compatibility
• Mounting Style: Free-hanging (in-line) configuration preserves form factor and installation method
• Electrical Ratings: Current and voltage specifications must meet or exceed the original part's IEC and UL ratings
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Acceptable wire gauge ranges must overlap with the original specification to ensure proper termination
• Termination Method: Screw-based termination is the primary requirement for this product category

The substitute part 691385700003 (Würth Elektronik WR-TBL Series 385) satisfies all critical substitution criteria through matching pitch, position count, plug configuration, wire entry angle, and mounting type. Electrical ratings exceed the original specifications, and wire gauge compatibility is maintained within acceptable ranges.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Würth Elektronik 691385700003 is a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete Phoenix Contact PT 2,5/ 3-PVH-5,0 BD:24-26. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

• Active Product Status: The substitute maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability
• Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance (ROHS3 for the substitute represents current regulatory standards)
• Electrical Performance: The substitute exceeds the original part's current ratings (16A IEC vs. 14.6A IEC; 14A UL vs. 10A UL) while maintaining equivalent voltage specifications
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical pitch, position count, wire entry angle, and mounting configuration ensure direct mechanical substitution
• Wire Gauge Consideration: The substitute accepts 12-24 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²), which covers the majority of the original specification range. Applications requiring 25-26 AWG wire must be evaluated separately

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Würth Elektronik 691385700003 be used as a direct replacement for the Phoenix Contact PT 2,5/ 3-PVH-5,0 BD:24-26?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (3), plug configuration (female sockets), wire entry angle (180°), and mounting type (free-hanging in-line). Electrical ratings of the substitute meet or exceed the original specifications.

Q: What is the wire gauge compatibility difference between the two parts?

A: The original part accepts 12-26 AWG (0.5-4mm²), while the substitute accepts 12-24 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²). Applications using 25-26 AWG wire require verification that the substitute's termination method accommodates these gauges, or alternative solutions must be identified.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The original part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in trays. Packaging format should be confirmed based on procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: What is the difference in termination style between these parts?

A: The original part uses screw termination with leaf spring and wire guard features. The substitute uses screw termination without specified wire guard features. Both employ screw-based termination, maintaining the fundamental connection method.

Q: Does the substitute meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. The substitute carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory standards. The original part carries RoHS compliance, both meeting environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.
