Phoenix Contact 3005316 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3005316 is a 2-position feed-through terminal block connector from the CLIPLINE MZB series, designed for wire gauges 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²). This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new designs requiring equivalent functionality.

The part operates at 17.5 A (IEC) / 15 A (UL) and 800V (IEC) / 600V (UL), with push-in spring termination and polyamide insulation rated UL94 V-0. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility is necessary for procurement and design continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the Phoenix Contact 3005316 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• 2-position configuration (fixed requirement)
• 1-level design (fixed requirement)
• 5.2 mm terminal width (fixed requirement)
• Push-in spring termination style (fixed requirement)
• Feed-through type (fixed requirement)

Electrical Compatibility:

• Wire gauge acceptance range must encompass or exceed 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²)
• Current rating must meet or exceed 17.5 A (IEC) / 15 A (UL)
• Voltage rating must meet or exceed 800 V (IEC) / 600 V (UL)

Material & Compliance:

• Polyamide (PA) / Nylon insulation with UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• RoHS compliance required

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 3244025 satisfies all mechanical compatibility requirements and exceeds electrical performance specifications, with an expanded wire gauge range of 12-28 AWG (0.08-4 mm²) and higher current ratings of 24 A (IEC) / 20 A (UL).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3244025 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 3005316. Both components maintain identical mechanical form factors (2-position, 1-level, 5.2 mm terminal width, push-in spring termination) and share equivalent material specifications (polyamide insulation, UL94 V-0 rating).

The 3244025 provides enhanced electrical performance with increased current capacity (24 A IEC / 20 A UL versus 17.5 A IEC / 15 A UL) and an expanded wire gauge acceptance range (12-28 AWG versus 14-26 AWG). These improvements ensure compatibility with a broader range of conductor sizes while maintaining or exceeding the original part's electrical specifications.

Both parts are RoHS compliant and manufactured by Phoenix Contact. The 3244025 carries a Last Time Buy status, indicating limited future availability. For applications currently using the 3005316, transition to the 3244025 is supported by full mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 3244025 directly replace the 3005316 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical dimensions (2-position, 5.2 mm terminal width, push-in spring termination) and equivalent voltage ratings (800 V IEC / 600 V UL). The 3244025 provides higher current capacity and accepts a wider wire gauge range, making it a direct substitute without modification to mounting or wiring practices.

Q: What is the significance of the expanded wire gauge range in the 3244025?

A: The 3244025 accepts 12-28 AWG (0.08-4 mm²) compared to the 3005316's 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²). This expanded range provides flexibility for applications using smaller or larger conductors while maintaining full compatibility with the original specification range.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 3005316 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 3244025 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process, as this may affect order quantities and handling procedures.

Q: Why is the 3005316 classified as obsolete?

A: The 3005316 belongs to the CLIPLINE MZB series, which has been superseded by newer Phoenix Contact terminal block designs. The 3244025 from the CLIPLINE ST series represents the current product line offering equivalent or enhanced functionality.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 3005316 and 3244025 are RoHS compliant, feature polyamide insulation with UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.8000) classifications.

Q: What is the stripping length difference, and does it affect compatibility?

A: The 3005316 requires 9 mm stripping length, while the 3244025 requires 8 mm. This minor difference reflects design optimization in the newer series but does not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility. Adjust wire preparation procedures accordingly when transitioning between parts.
