Phoenix Contact 3073607 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3073607 is a 1-position terminal block with bolt/screw clamp wire entry at 90° to the panel. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The CLIPLINE RW series design provides secure wire termination with rated capacity for 600 V and 115 A applications in gray finish.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3073607 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Electrical Ratings: Voltage (600 V UL) and current capacity must meet or exceed the original specification
• Wire Connection Method: Bolt/screw clamp with 90° panel wire entry configuration
• Mechanical Compatibility: Panel mount type (2-piece), panel thickness tolerance (1.0 ~ 6.0mm), and position count (1 per level)
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: Acceptable wire gauge range for termination
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and regulatory certifications (ECCN, HTSUS)

The substitute part 3073364 maintains functional equivalence within these parameters while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3073364 serves as the active substitute for the obsolete 3073607. Both components maintain identical voltage ratings (600 V UL), equivalent panel thickness tolerance, and identical wire connection methodology. The substitute operates at 112.5 A, which is within acceptable tolerance of the original 115 A specification for most applications. Wire gauge compatibility extends to 2-10 AWG on the substitute versus 2-14 AWG on the original; applications requiring 12-14 AWG wire termination require verification of the substitute's suitability.

The reduced width of the substitute (0.594" versus 0.799") may affect panel layout considerations in space-constrained installations. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8536.69.4030), ensuring regulatory continuity in replacement scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3073364 directly replace the 3073607 in existing installations?

A: Direct replacement is feasible for applications using wire gauges 2-10 AWG. Applications terminating 12-14 AWG wire require assessment of the substitute's wire gauge limitations. Panel layout must accommodate the reduced width (0.594" versus 0.799").

Q: What is the current capacity difference between these parts?

A: The original 3073607 is rated at 115 A, while the substitute 3073364 is rated at 112.5 A. This 2.5 A difference represents a 2.2% reduction and is typically acceptable for most industrial applications operating below maximum rated capacity.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the 3073607 and 3073364 are RoHS compliant with identical regulatory classifications.

Q: Why is the 3073607 obsolete?

A: The 3073607 belongs to the CLIPLINE RW series, which has been superseded by the active CLIPLINE UW series represented by the 3073364. Phoenix Contact has transitioned product lines to the newer UW series for continued support and availability.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: The original 3073607 packaging is listed as unspecified, while the substitute 3073364 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.
