Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3247973 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete 3076206 terminal block. Both components maintain identical electrical performance specifications for IEC and UL standards, ensuring functional compatibility in existing circuit designs.

The 3247973 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The enhanced IEC voltage rating of 1.5 kV provides additional safety margin compared to the 1 kV specification of the 3076206, while maintaining all other electrical parameters.

The increased physical length of the 3247973 (7.244" versus 5.354") must be evaluated against available DIN rail space in the target installation. Both components share identical mounting methodology, termination approach, and wire gauge compatibility, eliminating the need for circuit redesign.

Compliance certifications remain equivalent, with both components meeting UL94 V-0 flammability standards and RoHS requirements. The 3247973 carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3247973 directly replace the 3076206 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings for current (192 A IEC, 175 A UL) and UL voltage (600 V). Wire gauge compatibility (2/0-8 AWG, 6-70 mm²) and termination methodology (bolt and nut) are identical. Physical length difference must be verified against available DIN rail space.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference between the two parts?

A: The 3247973 is rated at 1.5 kV IEC versus 1 kV for the 3076206. This represents an enhanced voltage specification on the substitute part, providing additional operational margin. Applications operating at or below 1 kV are fully compatible with the 3247973.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The 3076206 is supplied with unspecified packaging, while the 3247973 is supplied in bulk packaging. This affects procurement and inventory management but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: How do the RoHS compliance statuses compare?

A: The 3076206 carries RoHS Compliant status, while the 3247973 carries ROHS3 Compliant status. Both meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions. ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard.

Q: What is the impact of the length difference on installation?

A: The 3247973 measures 7.244" (184.00 mm) compared to 5.354" (136.00 mm) for the 3076206. This 48 mm difference requires verification that the installation location provides sufficient DIN rail space. No electrical or functional impact results from this dimensional difference.

Q: Are both components suitable for the same wire gauge applications?

A: Yes. Both the 3076206 and 3247973 accept wire gauges of 2/0-8 AWG (6-70 mm²), ensuring identical conductor compatibility across the full range of supported wire sizes.
