Phoenix Contact 2794767 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 2794767 is a 2-position feed-through terminal block connector rated for 10-26 AWG wire gauges with a 30A UL current rating at 48V. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing system maintenance and new designs requiring similar electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 2906832 is identified within the Phoenix Contact product ecosystem. However, substitution analysis reveals a fundamental category mismatch: the main part (2794767) is a terminal block connector, while the substitute (2906832) is classified as a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) module.

Substitution validity is determined by the following criteria:

• Electrical Function: Terminal blocks provide wire-to-wire or wire-to-device connections; TVS modules provide transient voltage protection
• Mounting Architecture: Terminal blocks use screw termination; TVS modules mount on DIN rail
• Voltage/Current Handling: Both operate within 48V systems, but serve different circuit roles
• Mechanical Interface: Terminal block width (6.2mm) and wire gauge accommodation (10-26 AWG) differ from TVS module specifications

Based on provided parameters, 2906832 does not constitute a direct functional equivalent for 2794767 in terminal block applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection of replacement components for the obsolete 2794767 must prioritize functional equivalence within terminal block category specifications. The listed substitute 2906832, while manufactured by Phoenix Contact and compliant with current RoHS3 standards, operates in a different functional category (circuit protection vs. signal/power distribution).

For applications requiring direct replacement of the 2794767 feed-through terminal block, selection criteria must include:

• 2-position configuration with single-level architecture
• Screw termination for 10-26 AWG wire accommodation
• 30A current capacity at 48V operating voltage
• Polyamide insulation with UL94 V-2 flammability rating
• 6.2mm terminal width compatibility with existing mechanical interfaces

The active product status of 2906832 indicates current manufacturing availability; however, functional compatibility assessment requires evaluation against terminal block specifications rather than TVS module characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2906832 TVS module directly replace the 2794767 terminal block?

A: No. The 2906832 is a transient voltage suppressor module designed for circuit protection, while the 2794767 is a feed-through terminal block for wire interconnection. These components serve different circuit functions and are not interchangeable.

Q: What makes a component a valid substitute for the 2794767?

A: Valid substitutes must match the following parameters: 2-position feed-through configuration, screw termination style, 10-26 AWG wire gauge accommodation, 30A current rating at 48V, and polyamide insulation with UL94 V-2 flammability rating.

Q: Why is the 2794767 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Phoenix Contact. Existing inventory (837 pcs) may be available through authorized distributors, but long-term availability is not guaranteed.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the main part and the listed substitute?

A: Yes. The 2794767 is RoHS Compliant, while the 2906832 is ROHS3 Compliant. The 2906832 also carries UL, CSA, and cCSAus approvals. However, these differences reflect different product categories rather than substitution compatibility.

Q: What wire gauge range does the 2794767 accommodate?

A: The 2794767 accepts wire gauges from 10-26 AWG, equivalent to 0.2-4mm² cross-sectional area. Substitute components must maintain this wire gauge accommodation range.
