Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 3208197 qualifies as a substitute for the 3131015 based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

• Mounting Configuration: Both parts are DIN rail mounted terminal blocks
• Function: Both are feed-through terminal blocks with gray housing
• Manufacturer Consistency: Both are Phoenix Contact products, ensuring design compatibility
• Regulatory Compliance: Both maintain RoHS compliance and REACH Unaffected status
• Environmental Rating: Both carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification
• Trade Classification: Both share identical HTSUS code 8536.69.8000

The 3208197 represents an active product from the CLIPLINE PT series with defined electrical specifications, providing a direct functional replacement for the obsolete 3131015.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 3208197 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 3131015. Selection of the 3208197 is supported by:

• Product Status Alignment: The 3208197 is an active product with current manufacturing support, eliminating supply chain risk associated with the obsolete 3131015
• Regulatory Compliance: The 3208197 exceeds the compliance profile of the original part, meeting ROHS3 (versus RoHS) standards while maintaining REACH Unaffected status
• Functional Equivalence: Both parts serve feed-through terminal block applications with DIN rail mounting and gray housing
• Environmental Stability: Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, ensuring equivalent storage and handling requirements
• Trade Classification Consistency: Identical HTSUS coding confirms equivalent tariff treatment

The 3208197 provides defined electrical specifications (17.5 A IEC / 15 A UL, 500V IEC / 300V UL) and mechanical parameters (4 positions, 1 level, 4.6mm terminal width, 14-26 AWG wire gauge) that establish it as a complete functional replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 3131015 no longer available? A: The 3131015 is classified as obsolete and has been discontinued by Phoenix Contact. The 3208197 from the active CLIPLINE PT series replaces this product line.

Q: What are the key compatibility criteria for substitution? A: Substitution is based on DIN rail mounting configuration, feed-through terminal block function, gray housing color, and equivalent regulatory compliance (RoHS and REACH status). Both parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) environmental ratings.

Q: Does the 3208197 have defined electrical ratings? A: Yes. The 3208197 is rated for 17.5 A at 500V (IEC standard) and 15 A at 300V (UL standard), with wire gauge compatibility of 14-26 AWG (0.14-1.5mm²).

Q: What is the packaging difference? A: The 3131015 packaging is not specified. The 3208197 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your application.

Q: Are there any mechanical dimension differences? A: The 3208197 specifies 4 positions, 1 level, 4.6mm terminal width, and 8mm stripping length. The 3131015 does not provide these dimensional specifications, making direct physical comparison necessary for space-constrained applications.

Q: Is the 3208197 RoHS compliant? A: Yes. The 3208197 meets ROHS3 compliance, which exceeds the RoHS compliance of the original 3131015.
