Phoenix Contact 3074994 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Phoenix Contact 3074994 is a 1-position terminal block featuring bolt/screw clamp wire entry at 90° to the panel. This component is part of the CLIPLINE RW series and is classified as obsolete. The part supports 600 V UL voltage rating and 65 A current capacity with gray coloring. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where this functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Phoenix Contact 3074994 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Ratings: Voltage (600 V UL) and current capacity (65 A) must be maintained or exceeded
• Mechanical Configuration: 1 position per level, 2-piece panel mount type, bolt/screw clamp wire entry at 90° to panel
• Connection Type: Front and rear panel wire connection via bolt/screw clamp
• Color: Gray
• Compliance: RoHS compliance status and MSL rating

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 0709864 meets these criteria while offering an active product status and updated series designation (CLIPLINE HDFK). Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings, connection methodology, and compliance requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 0709864 serves as a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 3074994. Both parts maintain identical electrical ratings (600 V UL, 65 A), mechanical configuration (1 position, 2-piece panel mount), and connection methodology (bolt/screw clamp at 90° to panel).

Key distinctions between the parts are:

• Product Status: The 0709864 is active, ensuring ongoing availability and support, whereas the 3074994 is obsolete
• Series Evolution: The 0709864 represents the current CLIPLINE HDFK series, replacing the legacy CLIPLINE RW series
• Physical Dimensions: The 0709864 features a reduced width (0.398" vs 0.642") and narrower panel thickness tolerance (1.0 ~ 4.0mm vs 1.0 ~ 6.0mm)
• Compliance: The 0709864 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing updated regulatory alignment

Selection of the 0709864 is appropriate for applications requiring equivalent electrical and mechanical performance with the benefit of active product status and current compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Phoenix Contact 0709864 directly replace the 3074994 in existing installations?

A: Yes, the 0709864 provides equivalent electrical ratings (600 V, 65 A) and identical mechanical configuration (1 position, bolt/screw clamp, 90° panel entry). Physical dimension differences (width and panel thickness tolerance) must be evaluated for specific panel mounting requirements.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 3074994 is classified as obsolete. The 0709864 is an active product offering equivalent functionality with current availability and compliance certifications.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant. The 0709864 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing a more recent regulatory standard. Both maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating.

Q: How do the physical dimensions differ?

A: The 0709864 has a narrower width (0.398" vs 0.642") and reduced panel thickness tolerance range (1.0 ~ 4.0mm vs 1.0 ~ 6.0mm). Panel mounting geometry must be verified for compatibility in existing installations.

Q: What wire gauge compatibility is specified?

A: The 0709864 supports 6-24 AWG wire gauge. Wire gauge specifications for the 3074994 were not provided in the technical data.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging?

A: The 3074994 packaging specification was not provided. The 0709864 is supplied in bulk packaging.
