Phoenix Contact 3073759 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3073759 is a 1-position terminal block featuring bolt/screw clamp wire entry parallel to the panel in gray. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new designs requiring equivalent functionality.

The 3073759 operates at 600V UL voltage rating with 65A current capacity and accommodates panel thicknesses from 0.039" to 0.236" (1.0–6.0mm). Its 2-piece snap lock panel mount design and engagement pin feature support reliable electrical connections in industrial applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3073759 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Ratings: Voltage (600V UL) and current capacity (65A) must be maintained or exceeded
• Mechanical Configuration: 1-position terminal block with single level
• Wire Connection Type: Front panel bolt/screw clamp with parallel wire entry
• Panel Mount Method: 2-piece design compatible with specified panel thickness range
• Color Specification: Gray housing
• Compliance: RoHS compliance required

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 0717254 satisfies these core substitution criteria while introducing design variations in rear panel connection type and panel thickness accommodation range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 0717254 serves as an active substitute for the obsolete 3073759. Both components maintain identical electrical ratings (600V UL, 65A) and support 1-position single-level configuration with parallel panel wire entry and gray housing.

Key design differences require evaluation:

Rear Connection Type: The 3073759 features bolt/screw clamp rear connection at 90° to the panel, while the 0717254 uses solder tabs. This difference affects installation methodology and circuit board integration approach.

Physical Dimensions: The 0717254 is narrower (0.394" vs. 0.642") and accommodates panel thicknesses up to 0.157" (4.0mm) compared to the 3073759's maximum 0.236" (6.0mm). Panel thickness compatibility must be verified for the target application.

Both components are RoHS compliant and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, supporting regulatory and procurement consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0717254 directly replace the 3073759 in existing installations?

A: Electrical compatibility is confirmed (600V, 65A ratings match). However, rear connection type differs (solder tabs vs. bolt/screw clamp), requiring circuit board or wiring harness redesign. Panel thickness accommodation also differs; verify that application panels fall within the 0717254's 1.0–4.0mm range.

Q: What is the significance of the different rear panel connection types?

A: The 3073759 uses bolt/screw clamp rear connection perpendicular to the panel, suitable for wire harness termination. The 0717254 uses solder tabs, requiring direct soldering to printed circuit boards. Selection depends on the backend connection infrastructure of the target system.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 3073759 and 0717254 are RoHS compliant, supporting environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What panel thicknesses are supported by each part?

A: The 3073759 accommodates 0.039"–0.236" (1.0–6.0mm) panel thickness. The 0717254 accommodates 0.039"–0.157" (1.0–4.0mm). Verify application panel thickness against the selected component's range.

Q: Why is the 3073759 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer manufactured by Phoenix Contact. The active 0717254 represents the current product line equivalent, though design modifications (rear connection type, physical dimensions) reflect product evolution.

Q: Is wire gauge information available for the 3073759?

A: Wire gauge is not specified for the 3073759. The 0717254 supports 6–24 AWG wire gauge. Consult Phoenix Contact technical documentation or contact the manufacturer for 3073759 wire gauge specifications if required.
