Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3056310 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Performance: Voltage rating (600 V UL) and current rating (65 A UL) must be maintained or exceeded
• Mechanical Configuration: 1-position terminal block with bolt/screw clamp connection and 90° wire entry to panel
• Wire Compatibility: Wire gauge range must accommodate 6-26 AWG conductors
• Panel Mount Interface: 2-piece panel mount type with compatible panel thickness tolerance
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliance status for regulatory alignment

The Phoenix Contact 0709864 meets these substitution criteria while offering active product status and improved compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 0709864 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 3056310 based on equivalent electrical ratings (600 V, 65 A) and identical mechanical connection type (bolt/screw clamp, 90° wire entry, 2-piece panel mount).

Key considerations for selection:

• Wire Gauge Compatibility: The 0709864 accommodates 6-24 AWG, compared to 6-26 AWG for the 3056310. Applications using 25-26 AWG conductors require verification of alternative solutions.
• Panel Thickness Tolerance: The 0709864 supports panel thickness of 0.039 ~ 0.157" (1.0 ~ 4.0 mm), versus 0.039 ~ 0.236" (1.0 ~ 6.0 mm) for the 3056310. Installations with panel thickness exceeding 4.0 mm require alternative evaluation.
• Physical Footprint: The 0709864 width of 0.398" (10.10 mm) is narrower than the 3056310 at 0.642" (16.30 mm), providing space optimization benefits in panel layouts.
• Product Status & Compliance: The 0709864 is active with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, supporting long-term supply chain continuity and regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 0709864 directly replace the 3056310 in all applications?

A: The 0709864 provides electrical and mechanical equivalence for most applications. Compatibility depends on wire gauge requirements (maximum 24 AWG for 0709864 versus 26 AWG for 3056310) and panel thickness tolerance (maximum 4.0 mm for 0709864 versus 6.0 mm for 3056310). Applications within these parameters are compatible.

Q: What is the primary difference between the CLIPLINE RW and CLIPLINE HDFK series?

A: Both series share identical electrical ratings and mechanical connection types. The CLIPLINE HDFK (0709864) offers a more compact width (10.10 mm versus 16.30 mm) and is currently in active production status, whereas the CLIPLINE RW (3056310) is obsolete.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The 3056310 is RoHS Compliant. The 0709864 is ROHS3 Compliant with REACH Unaffected status, representing enhanced regulatory alignment for current and future applications.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 3056310 is available in standard packaging. The 0709864 is supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for high-volume production environments.

Q: If my application requires 25-26 AWG wire gauge support, what alternatives exist?

A: The 3056310 supports 6-26 AWG. For applications requiring this extended wire gauge range with an active product, alternative Phoenix Contact terminal block series should be evaluated based on specific mechanical and electrical requirements.
