Phoenix Contact 3003761 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3003761 is a 2-position terminal block from the CLIPLINE MZB series, designed for direct mount applications with push-in spring termination. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The part features gray polyamide housing, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and compliance with both IEC and UL electrical standards.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3003761 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Functional equivalence: 2-position terminal block configuration with middle type mounting
• Electrical compatibility: IEC and UL voltage and current ratings must meet or exceed the original specifications
• Mechanical compatibility: Direct mount capability with matching physical dimensions (length and height)
• Termination method: Push-in spring termination style
• Material and compliance: Polyamide housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 3244041 maintains functional equivalence through identical position count, mounting type, and housing material. While the terminal width differs (5.2mm versus 11.0mm), the substitute provides enhanced electrical performance and broader wire gauge compatibility, making it suitable for applications where the original part is no longer available.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3244041 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 3003761. Both components share identical mechanical dimensions, voltage ratings, and material specifications. The 3244041 provides superior current-carrying capacity (24 A IEC / 20 A UL versus 17.5 A IEC / 15 A UL) and extended wire gauge compatibility (0.08-4mm² versus 0.14-2.5mm²), making it suitable for applications requiring the original part.

The 3244041 maintains ROHS3 compliance and UL94 V-0 flammability certification, ensuring regulatory alignment with current standards. The transition from CLIPLINE MZB to CLIPLINE ST series represents a product line evolution within Phoenix Contact's terminal block portfolio, with the ST series offering enhanced electrical performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3244041 directly replace the 3003761 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mounting type (direct mount), position count (2), physical dimensions (32.00mm length, 22.00mm height), and electrical standards (IEC 800V, UL 600V). The substitute provides equal or superior performance across all specified parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the terminal width difference (11.0mm versus 5.2mm)?

A: Terminal width affects the physical spacing of connection points. The 3244041's narrower 5.2mm width represents a design optimization in the CLIPLINE ST series. Mechanical compatibility with mounting infrastructure must be verified for specific applications.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 3003761 carries RoHS Compliant status, while the 3244041 carries ROHS3 Compliant status. Both meet current regulatory requirements. The 3244041 reflects updated compliance documentation for the current product generation.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with each part?

A: The 3003761 accepts 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5mm²). The 3244041 accepts 12-28 AWG (0.08-4mm²), providing broader compatibility with smaller and larger conductor sizes.

Q: Why is the 3003761 classified as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects Phoenix Contact's transition from the CLIPLINE MZB series to the CLIPLINE ST series. The 3244041 represents the current-generation equivalent within the updated product line.
