Phoenix Contact 3074949 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3074949 is a 1-position terminal block with bolt/screw clamp wire entry at 90° to the panel, rated for 600V UL and 115A UL current. This component is part of the CLIPLINE RW series and is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for maintenance and new installations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Phoenix Contact 3074949 is based on the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Ratings: Voltage (600V UL) and current capacity (minimum 100A UL)
• Mechanical Configuration: 1 position, bolt/screw clamp connection, 90° wire entry to panel
• Panel Mount Type: 2-piece mounting system
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification
• Color: Gray housing

The Weidmüller 2444660000 meets these substitution criteria with equivalent electrical ratings, identical functional configuration, and compatible mounting specifications. The substitute part maintains the same wire connection method and panel orientation requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 2444660000 is a suitable substitute for the obsolete Phoenix Contact 3074949 based on the following factors:

• Compliance Alignment: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and share identical ECCN classification (EAR99), ensuring regulatory consistency.
• Active Product Status: The Weidmüller part is currently active in production, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete Phoenix Contact component.
• Electrical Equivalence: Both parts are rated for 600V UL. The Weidmüller part is rated for 100A UL, which is within acceptable operating parameters for applications requiring the 115A Phoenix Contact rating, provided system design accommodates this specification.
• Functional Compatibility: Identical 1-position configuration, bolt/screw clamp connection method, and 90° panel wire entry ensure mechanical and functional interchangeability in panel mounting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 2444660000 directly replace the Phoenix Contact 3074949 in existing installations?

A: Yes, the Weidmüller part provides functional and mechanical compatibility. Both components feature identical 1-position bolt/screw clamp configuration with 90° wire entry to the panel. Verify that the 100A UL current rating of the Weidmüller part meets your application requirements, as the original Phoenix Contact part is rated for 115A UL.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer, product status (obsolete vs. active), and current rating (115A vs. 100A). The Weidmüller part has a narrower width (0.594" vs. 0.799") and different panel thickness specifications. Both maintain equivalent voltage ratings and RoHS compliance.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory considerations?

A: The Weidmüller 2444660000 is supplied in box packaging and has 928 pieces in stock. The Phoenix Contact 3074949 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory (820 pieces). For new designs or long-term applications, the active Weidmüller part is recommended.

Q: Do both parts support the same wire gauge specifications?

A: The Weidmüller 2444660000 specifies 3-10 AWG wire gauge. The Phoenix Contact 3074949 does not provide wire gauge specifications in the available documentation. Consult detailed datasheets for wire gauge compatibility with your specific application.

Q: Are there any mounting differences I should be aware of?

A: Both parts use 2-piece panel mount systems. The Phoenix Contact uses a snap lock mechanism, while the Weidmüller uses a standard 2-piece mount. Verify mechanical fit within your panel assembly before implementation.
