Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 3005345 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Mechanical Compatibility: 4 positions, 1 level, 10.4 mm terminal width, feed-through configuration
• Electrical Performance: Current and voltage ratings must meet or exceed IEC 17.5 A / 800 V and UL 15 A / 600 V
• Termination Technology: Push-in spring termination required
• Wire Gauge Acceptance: Must accommodate 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²) wire range
• Material & Compliance: Polyamide insulation with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 3244216 meets these criteria with enhanced electrical ratings and expanded wire gauge compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3244216 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 3005345. Both components share identical mechanical form factors (4 positions, 10.4 mm terminal width) and termination methodology (push-in spring). The 3244216 provides superior electrical performance with 24 A (IEC) and 20 A (UL) current ratings, exceeding the original 17.5 A (IEC) and 15 A (UL) specifications. Voltage ratings remain equivalent at 800V (IEC) and 600V (UL).

The 3244216 expands wire gauge compatibility to 12-28 AWG (0.08-4 mm²), encompassing the original 14-26 AWG range. Both components maintain identical insulation material composition and UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The substitute achieves ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment compared to the original RoHS compliance status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3244216 directly replace the 3005345 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical mechanical dimensions (4 positions, 10.4 mm terminal width, 1 level), feed-through configuration, and push-in spring termination. The 3244216 meets or exceeds all electrical specifications of the original part.

Q: What is the wire gauge compatibility difference?

A: The 3005345 accepts 14-26 AWG (0.14-2.5 mm²). The 3244216 accepts 12-28 AWG (0.08-4 mm²). The substitute accommodates the full original range plus additional smaller and larger wire gauges.

Q: Are the electrical ratings compatible?

A: The 3244216 provides higher current ratings (24 A IEC / 20 A UL versus 17.5 A IEC / 15 A UL) while maintaining identical voltage ratings (800V IEC / 600V UL). This represents an upgrade in current-carrying capacity.

Q: What is the significance of the product status change?

A: The 3005345 is classified as obsolete, indicating end-of-life status. The 3244216 is designated Last Time Buy, indicating limited future availability. For long-term supply assurance, procurement should prioritize current production alternatives within the Phoenix Contact CLIPLINE terminal block portfolio.

Q: Are compliance certifications equivalent?

A: Both components feature UL94 V-0 flammability certification and polyamide insulation. The 3244216 achieves ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory requirements compared to the original RoHS compliance designation.
