Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 2912536 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Coil voltage: 60VDC
• Contact form: DPDT (2 Form C)
• Contact rating: 6 A minimum
• Switching voltage: 250VAC, 250VDC maximum
• Coil current: 10 mA
• Coil type: Non-latching
• Mounting type: DIN Rail
• Termination style: Spring Terminal
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 60°C minimum
• Contact material: Silver Nickel (AgNi)

The Phoenix Contact 2900334 meets all critical substitution criteria. Both relays share identical electrical specifications, contact ratings, coil parameters, and environmental operating conditions. The primary difference is product status: the 2900334 is active production, whereas the 2912536 is obsolete. Both are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 2900334 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 2912536. Both relays are RoHS compliant and carry identical MSL ratings. The 2900334 is in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The inclusion of a socket in the 2900334 packaging provides additional mounting flexibility compared to the 2912536. All electrical parameters, contact ratings, coil specifications, and environmental operating conditions are equivalent between the two parts, supporting direct substitution in existing designs and new applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 2900334 directly replace the 2912536 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 2900334 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the 2912536. Both relays feature identical coil voltage (60VDC), contact form (DPDT), current rating (6A), switching voltage (250VAC/250VDC), coil current (10mA), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 60°C). Spring terminal termination and DIN rail mounting are identical on both parts.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 2912536 is classified as obsolete. The 2900334 is the active production equivalent, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these relays?

A: The 2900334 includes a socket in its packaging, whereas the 2912536 does not. Both relays use spring terminal connections and DIN rail mounting. This packaging difference does not affect electrical compatibility.

Q: Do both relays meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 2912536 and 2900334 are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: What are the critical parameters for confirming substitution compatibility?

A: Coil voltage (60VDC), contact form (DPDT), contact current rating (6A), switching voltage (250VAC/250VDC maximum), coil current (10mA), non-latching coil type, spring terminal termination, and operating temperature range (-40°C to 60°C) must all match the application requirements.
