Phoenix Contact 2909527 General Purpose Relay SPDT 6A 12V - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 2909527 is a general purpose relay with SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) contact configuration, rated for 6A at 12VDC coil voltage. This DIN rail-mounted relay is designed for industrial control applications requiring reliable switching of AC and DC loads up to 250V. The relay features a lighted indicator and socket inclusion for modular installation. As an active product with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH compliance, it remains in production with consistent inventory availability. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters match the original specification, ensuring direct functional replacement without circuit redesign.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 2909527 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Coil voltage specification (12VDC)
• Contact configuration (SPDT / 1 Form C)
• Current rating (6A minimum)
• Maximum switching voltage (250VAC, 250VDC)
• Mounting interface (DIN Rail)
• Coil current draw (15.3 mA)
• Termination method (Spring Terminal)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 60°C)
• Contact material composition (Silver Tin Oxide)

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 2900316 meets all these criteria, confirming functional and mechanical interchangeability within the PLC-RPT relay series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Phoenix Contact 2909527 and 2900316 are active products with full regulatory compliance. Both parts carry ROHS3 certification and REACH compliance status, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, lead time, or procurement source preference, as electrical and mechanical specifications are identical. Both relays are suitable for direct substitution in DIN rail-mounted control circuits requiring 12VDC coil actuation and 6A switching capacity at up to 250V.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 2900316 directly replace 2909527 in existing installations? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters, including coil voltage, contact configuration, current rating, switching voltage, mounting interface, and termination style. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: Are there differences in reliability or lifespan between these two relays? A: Both parts use identical contact material (Silver Tin Oxide), operate at the same switching speeds (5 ms operate, 8 ms release), and share the same temperature operating range. No performance differentiation is specified in the provided parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the different base product numbers (29095 vs. 29003)? A: Base product numbers indicate internal Phoenix Contact product line designations. These do not affect functional equivalence or substitutability when all electrical and mechanical parameters match.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same environmental conditions? A: Yes. Both relays operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 60°C and carry the same compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH).

Q: Can these relays be used interchangeably in socket-based installations? A: Yes. Both parts include socket compatibility and use spring terminal termination, confirming mechanical interchangeability in modular relay bases.
