Phoenix Contact 3041752 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3041752 is a 5-position terminal block plug with female sockets configured for 90° free-hanging (in-line) installation. This component features screwless spring cage termination and supports wire gauges from 12-26 AWG (0.08-4mm²). The part is designated as Last Time Buy, indicating discontinued production status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to ensure continued availability for maintenance, repair, and new system designs that require compatible connector solutions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 3041752 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact
• Type: Plug with Female Sockets
• Number of Positions: 5
• Positions Per Level: 5
• Number of Levels: 1
• Termination Style: Screwless - Spring Cage, Tension Clamp
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Current Rating - IEC: 24A minimum
• Voltage Rating - IEC: 500 V minimum
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: 12-26 AWG (0.08-4mm²)
• Housing Material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

Allowable Variations:

• Plug Wire Entry angle (90° vs. 180°)
• Insulation Height (dimensional variation acceptable if mechanical fit permits)
• UL voltage rating (may exceed 600 V)
• Wire gauge upper range (may extend beyond 26 AWG)
• Product Status (Active status preferred over Last Time Buy)
• RoHS compliance version (RoHS3 acceptable as upgrade from RoHS Compliant)

The Phoenix Contact 3041752 has one identified substitute: part number 3040290.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3040290 serves as the active production equivalent to the discontinued 3041752. Both components share identical electrical ratings (24A IEC, 500V IEC), mechanical termination methodology (screwless spring cage), and material specifications (UL94 V-0 polyamide housing).

The primary design difference is the plug wire entry orientation: the 3041752 features 90° entry while the 3040290 provides 180° entry. This dimensional change results in a 5mm increase in insulation height (34.00mm to 39.00mm). The 3040290 also extends wire gauge compatibility to 28 AWG and carries ROHS3 compliance status, representing an updated regulatory classification.

The 3040290 is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement due to its Active product status. For existing installations using the 3041752, substitution with the 3040290 is electrically and mechanically valid provided that the increased insulation height and altered wire entry angle accommodate the physical installation constraints of the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 3040290 directly replace the 3041752 in existing installations?

A: Electrical and mechanical compatibility is confirmed. The 3040290 maintains identical current and voltage ratings, termination methodology, and wire gauge range. Physical installation feasibility depends on whether the 5mm increase in insulation height and the change from 90° to 180° wire entry angle fit within the available space and routing requirements of the specific application.

Q: What is the significance of the wire entry angle difference between these parts?

A: The 3041752 accepts wire entry at 90° (perpendicular to the connector body), while the 3040290 accepts wire entry at 180° (in-line with the connector body). This affects cable routing and spatial requirements in the installation environment.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the 3041752 and 3040290?

A: Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and RoHS standards. The 3040290 carries ROHS3 compliance, which represents the current regulatory classification. The 3041752 carries RoHS Compliant status. Both are MSL 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: Why is the 3041752 designated as Last Time Buy?

A: Last Time Buy status indicates that Phoenix Contact has discontinued production of this part number. The 3040290 represents the active production alternative within the CLIPLINE COMBI series.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by each part?

A: The 3041752 supports 12-26 AWG (0.08-4mm²). The 3040290 extends this range to 12-28 AWG (0.08-4mm²), providing compatibility with finer gauge conductors.

Q: Is the UL voltage rating difference significant?

A: The 3041752 is rated 600V UL, while the 3040290 is rated 300V UL. For applications requiring 600V UL compliance, the 3041752 specification must be maintained. For applications operating at or below 300V UL, the 3040290 is suitable.
