Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3074936 is based on the following critical parameters that must align between the main part and substitute components:

Electrical Parameters: Voltage rating (600V UL minimum), current capacity (115A minimum), and single-position configuration are mandatory for functional equivalence.

Mechanical Parameters: Bolt/screw clamp connection type with 90° panel wire entry, 2-piece panel mount design, and single-level configuration must be maintained.

Physical Parameters: Panel thickness accommodation range (0.039 ~ 0.236") and gray color specification define the mechanical fit and visual consistency.

Compliance Parameters: RoHS compliance status ensures regulatory alignment for the substitute component.

The Weidmüller 2444660000 qualifies as a substitute based on matching electrical ratings (600V, 100A minimum), identical connection type and wire entry orientation, compatible panel mount design, and equivalent RoHS compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 2444660000 (WGK 25 GY BX) serves as the primary substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 3074936. Both components maintain identical electrical specifications at 600V UL rating and equivalent mechanical connection architecture with 90° panel wire entry orientation.

The Weidmüller substitute carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support. Both components are RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Current capacity differs marginally (100A versus 115A), with the Weidmüller component rated at 100A. This specification remains suitable for applications within the 100A operating envelope. Applications requiring the full 115A capacity of the original Phoenix Contact component should be evaluated against actual system load requirements.

Physical dimensions vary slightly, with the Weidmüller component measuring 0.594" (15.10mm) in width compared to the Phoenix Contact 0.799" (20.30mm) width. Panel thickness accommodation specifications differ, with the Weidmüller component specifications not provided for this parameter. Physical fit verification is required for panel-mount applications with specific thickness constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 2444660000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 3074936?

A: The Weidmüller 2444660000 qualifies as a functional substitute based on matching electrical ratings (600V), identical connection type (bolt/screw clamp with 90° wire entry), and equivalent panel-mount design. Physical dimensions and panel thickness accommodation should be verified for specific installation requirements.

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

A: The Phoenix Contact 3074936 is rated at 115A, while the Weidmüller 2444660000 is rated at 100A. Both operate at 600V UL. Applications operating within the 100A range are fully compatible with the substitute component.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the Phoenix Contact 3074936 and Weidmüller 2444660000 are RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement and use.

Q: What are the key substitution criteria for this terminal block category?

A: Substitution is determined by matching voltage rating (600V minimum), current capacity (100A minimum for this application), connection type (bolt/screw clamp), wire entry orientation (90° to panel), panel mount design (2-piece configuration), and position count (1-position). Color specification (gray) and compliance status (RoHS) should also align.

Q: Why is the Phoenix Contact 3074936 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The Weidmüller 2444660000 provides an active, currently manufactured alternative with equivalent functional specifications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The Phoenix Contact 3074936 packaging specification is not provided. The Weidmüller 2444660000 is supplied in box packaging. Packaging format should be confirmed based on procurement requirements.
