Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Phoenix Contact 5607072 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Contact configuration: SPDT (1 Form C)
• Current rating: 6 A
• Coil voltage: 230VAC/DC
• Switching voltage: 250VAC, 250VDC maximum
• Coil current: 3.2 mA
• Mounting type: DIN Rail
• Termination style: Screw Terminal
• Contact material: Silver Tin Oxide (AgSnO)
• Coil type: Non Latching
• Features: Lighted Indicator, Socket Included
• Timing characteristics: 7 ms operate time, 15 ms release time

The identified substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility within these parameters. Both substitute parts belong to the same PLC-RSC series and are sourced from the same manufacturer, ensuring form, fit, and functional equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are currently in active production status, providing long-term availability compared to the obsolete 5607072. Part 2909526 offers an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 55°C, providing enhanced performance in cold environments compared to the original specification of -25°C to 55°C. Part 2966207 maintains the original operating temperature range of -25°C to 55°C.

Both substitutes comply with ROHS3 standards and are REACH affected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The original 5607072 carries RoHS Compliant status. All three parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, contact ratings, and timing specifications, ensuring direct functional replacement in existing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 2909526 replace 5607072 in all applications? A: Yes. Part 2909526 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 55°C versus -25°C to 55°C) provides additional capability without reducing performance in the original temperature band.

Q: What is the difference between 2909526 and 2966207? A: Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications and contact ratings. The primary difference is operating temperature range: 2909526 operates from -40°C to 55°C, while 2966207 operates from -25°C to 55°C, matching the original 5607072 specification.

Q: Are packaging differences significant for substitution? A: The original 5607072 uses standard packaging, while both substitutes are supplied in bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and handling but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do the substitute parts require socket compatibility verification? A: Both substitute parts include sockets as standard features, matching the original 5607072 configuration. No additional compatibility assessment is required for socket-based installations.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs? A: Selection between 2909526 and 2966207 depends on application temperature requirements. For applications requiring operation below -25°C, specify 2909526. For applications within -25°C to 55°C, either part is suitable.
