Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3036123 is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently using the 3036111. Selection of the 3036123 is supported by:

Full electrical and mechanical parameter alignment across all critical specifications
Active product status ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support
RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements
Identical mechanical interface and termination characteristics, enabling direct substitution without circuit redesign
Expanded wire gauge minimum range (0.2 mm² vs. 1.5 mm²) providing additional flexibility for smaller conductor applications

The only functional difference is housing color (blue vs. orange), which does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. This color distinction may be relevant only for circuit identification or documentation purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3036123 be used as a direct replacement for the 3036111?

A: Yes. The 3036123 maintains identical electrical ratings (57 A IEC / 65 A UL, 1000V IEC / 600V UL), mechanical dimensions (10.2 mm terminal width, 2 positions), wire gauge compatibility (6-16 AWG), and termination method (push-in spring). Direct substitution is mechanically and electrically compatible.

Q: Does the color difference between orange (3036111) and blue (3036123) affect functionality?

A: No. Color is a visual identification feature only and does not affect electrical performance, current capacity, voltage rating, or mechanical operation. Color selection may be relevant for circuit documentation or internal identification standards.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge range difference (1.5-16 mm² vs. 0.2-16 mm²)?

A: The 3036123 accepts a broader minimum wire gauge range, supporting conductors as small as 0.2 mm². For applications using 6-16 AWG (1.5-16 mm²), both parts are fully compatible. The expanded range on the 3036123 provides additional flexibility for future applications without requiring component changes.

Q: Why is the 3036111 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued active production and support. The 3036123 is the active equivalent, ensuring continued availability, technical support, and compliance documentation for new designs and ongoing maintenance.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 3036123 includes documented RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Both parts share identical UL94 V-0 flammability ratings and insulation materials. For applications requiring current environmental compliance documentation, the 3036123 provides explicit certification.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 3036111 packaging is not specified in available documentation. The 3036123 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement department for order quantity and handling specifications.
