Phoenix Contact 2800841 Circuit Breaker Thermal Magnetic 6A 277VAC 50VDC

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 2800841 is a thermal magnetic circuit breaker rated for 6A at 277V AC and 50V DC, featuring a slide switch actuator in a single-pole holder configuration. This component is classified as Active product status and is fully compliant with ROHS3 standards. Circuit breakers of this specification are essential in industrial control and power distribution applications where overcurrent protection and thermal management are required. Equivalent substitute parts may be necessary due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or specific compliance requirements in different regulatory jurisdictions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute parts 2800852 and 2800863 are parametric equivalents to the main part 2800841. Substitution is valid based on the following criteria:

All three parts share identical electrical specifications: 6A current rating, 277V AC voltage rating, and 50V DC voltage rating. All three feature thermal magnetic protection, single-pole configuration, slide switch actuation, and holder-based mounting. All three are manufactured by Phoenix Contact within the CB series and maintain Active product status.

The determining factors for substitution are: current rating, AC/DC voltage ratings, breaker type, pole count, actuator type, and mounting configuration. Since these parameters are identical across all three parts, they are fully interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications and are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring a 6A thermal magnetic circuit breaker at 277V AC / 50V DC with single-pole slide switch operation.

Part 2800852 is distinguished by its REACH Unaffected status, making it the preferred selection for applications subject to REACH compliance requirements or where supply chain documentation must exclude REACH-affected components.

Parts 2800841 and 2800863 carry REACH Affected designation and are appropriate for applications where REACH compliance is not a constraint.

All three parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment for industrial control applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are parts 2800852 and 2800863 direct replacements for 2800841?

A: Yes. All three parts are parametric equivalents with identical current ratings (6A), voltage ratings (277V AC / 50V DC), breaker type (thermal magnetic), pole count (1), actuator type (slide switch), and mounting configuration (holder). They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between these three parts?

A: The primary difference is REACH compliance status. Part 2800852 is REACH Unaffected, while parts 2800841 and 2800863 are REACH Affected. All other specifications are identical.

Q: Which part should I select if REACH compliance is required?

A: Part 2800852 should be selected for applications requiring REACH Unaffected components. Parts 2800841 and 2800863 are suitable for applications where REACH compliance is not a regulatory requirement.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: All three parts are supplied in Bulk packaging. No packaging configuration differences exist.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes. Since all electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, these parts can be used interchangeably without design modification or re-qualification, provided compliance requirements are met.
