Phoenix Contact 2130169 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 2130169 is a feed-through terminal block connector designed for 2-position applications with wire gauge capacity of 1/0-6 AWG (16-50 mm²). This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The CLIPLINE UHV series designation indicates this part belongs to a legacy product line that has been superseded by newer offerings within Phoenix Contact's terminal block portfolio.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete Phoenix Contact 2130169 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant or compatible:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of positions: 2
• Number of levels: 1
• Type: Feed Through
• Termination style: Screw
• Current rating (IEC): 150 A
• Voltage rating (IEC): 1000 V
• Current rating (UL): 150 A
• Voltage rating (UL): 600 V
• Wire gauge range: 1/0-6 AWG minimum compatibility

Allowable Variations:

• Terminal width may differ (affects physical footprint but not electrical function)
• Wire gauge maximum range may exceed the original specification
• Insulation material composition may vary while maintaining flammability rating or exceeding it
• Packaging format may change
• Series designation will differ due to product line evolution

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 3009118 satisfies all mandatory electrical and functional parameters while offering enhanced specifications in wire gauge capacity and improved flammability rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3009118 is the active substitute for the obsolete 2130169. Both components maintain identical electrical performance specifications across IEC and UL standards. The 3009118 offers the following advantages:

Product Status: The 3009118 carries active product status, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and compliance with current regulatory requirements. The 2130169 is obsolete and subject to supply discontinuation.

Compliance Enhancement: The 3009118 achieves UL94 V-0 flammability rating compared to the UL94 HB rating of the 2130169, representing improved fire performance. Both maintain RoHS compliance with the 3009118 meeting ROHS3 specifications.

Wire Gauge Capacity: The 3009118 accommodates wire gauges up to 70 mm² compared to 50 mm² for the 2130169, providing expanded application flexibility without compromising the minimum 1/0-6 AWG requirement.

Physical Footprint: The 3009118 features a reduced terminal width of 20.0 mm versus 32.0 mm, resulting in a more compact design suitable for space-constrained installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3009118 directly replace the 2130169 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (150 A at 1000 V IEC, 150 A at 600 V UL), 2-position feed-through configuration, and screw termination. The reduced terminal width of the 3009118 requires verification of physical mounting space compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the UL94 V-0 rating on the 3009118 compared to UL94 HB on the 2130169?

A: UL94 V-0 represents a higher flammability classification than UL94 HB. The 3009118 provides superior fire performance characteristics, making it suitable for applications with stricter flame-retardant requirements.

Q: Does the expanded wire gauge range of the 3009118 (16-70 mm²) affect compatibility with 1/0-6 AWG applications?

A: No. The 3009118 fully accommodates the 1/0-6 AWG range (16-50 mm²) specified for the 2130169. The extended upper limit of 70 mm² provides additional application flexibility without affecting existing wire gauge compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the 2130169 and 3009118?

A: The 2130169 was supplied with unspecified packaging, while the 3009118 is supplied in bulk packaging format. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and logistics processes.

Q: What is the stripping length requirement for the 3009118?

A: The 3009118 specifies a stripping length of 24 mm for proper wire preparation and terminal connection.
