Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 2963307 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Connector Style: CEE 7/4 (Schuko) configuration
• Connector Type: Receptacle with female sockets
• Number of Positions: 2-position configuration
• Mounting Type: DIN rail mounting capability
• Features: LED indicator presence
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and approval certifications

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 0804041 maintains functional equivalence through identical connector style, type, position count, and mounting method. Both components feature LED indicators and RoHS compliance. Variations in termination method (spring-cage versus push-in) and ingress protection rating do not preclude substitution when mechanical and electrical interface requirements are met.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 0804041 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 2963307. Both components share identical connector interface specifications (CEE 7/4 Schuko, 2-position receptacle) and mounting architecture (DIN rail). The substitute part maintains active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

The 0804041 incorporates push-in termination in place of spring-cage termination. This represents a design evolution within the Phoenix Contact product line while preserving electrical and mechanical compatibility. The substitute part carries VDE approval certification; the original part carries both EAC and VDE certifications. Both components are RoHS compliant and feature LED indicator functionality.

Selection of the 0804041 as a replacement is appropriate for applications requiring CEE 7/4 Schuko receptacle functionality with DIN rail mounting and LED indication. The active product status of the 0804041 provides superior long-term component availability compared to the obsolete 2963307.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 0804041 directly replace the 2963307 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components feature identical CEE 7/4 Schuko connector style, 2-position receptacle configuration, and DIN rail mounting. The mechanical and electrical interfaces are compatible. The termination method differs (push-in versus spring-cage), but this does not affect connector compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference between the two parts?

A: The 2963307 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The 0804041 maintains active product status, ensuring reliable supply chain access and continued manufacturer support. For new designs or long-term maintenance planning, the 0804041 is the preferred selection.

Q: Are there differences in approval certifications between these parts?

A: The 2963307 carries EAC and VDE approvals. The 0804041 carries VDE approval. Both components are RoHS compliant. The VDE certification is common to both parts and covers the relevant safety and performance standards for AC power connectors in this category.

Q: How do the termination methods differ, and does this affect substitution?

A: The 2963307 uses spring-cage termination; the 0804041 uses push-in termination. Both methods provide secure electrical connection to DIN rail-mounted conductor systems. The termination method change reflects product line evolution and does not compromise functional equivalence for standard applications.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The 2963307 has 719 pieces in stock (new original). The 0804041 has 1009 pieces in stock (new original, bulk packaging). The higher inventory level of the active substitute part supports immediate availability for replacement applications.
