Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 2967167 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Mounting Type: DIN Rail mounting is mandatory for mechanical compatibility
• Termination Style: Spring terminal connections must be maintained for electrical interface consistency
• Application: Socket interface for miniature relays establishes functional requirements
• Features: Lighted indicator presence ensures operational visibility equivalence
• Compliance: RoHS and environmental certifications must meet or exceed the original specification

The substitute part 2900280 satisfies all substitution criteria through matching mounting architecture, termination methodology, relay compatibility, and indicator functionality. The transition from the obsolete PLC-BSP series to the active PLC-BPT series represents a direct functional replacement within Phoenix Contact's product portfolio.
