Where it sits in the control system
The 2297109 is the device-level element in a Phoenix Contact circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — the rated supply — and switches or conditions the load within the the rated ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in distribution boards, motor protection circuits, panel feeders, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides 35 mm DIN rail (IEC 60715) support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Selection notes for Phoenix Contact 2297109
Phoenix Contact 2297109 — Industrial automation component supplied as a like-for-like replacement, selected by catalog number and published ratings. The figures below are taken from the specification table on this page for catalog number 2297109; always cross-check the catalog number and hardware revision on the nameplate before placing an order.
- Terminal wire size: 0.2 mm² ... 2.5 mm² — Use it as the reference when cross-checking a current-production equivalent.
- Breaking capacity Icu/Ics: 6 kA / 10 kA (IEC 60947-2) — Verify it in the project documentation before confirming the order.
- Enclosure rating: IP20 (IEC 60529) — Check this value against the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
- Number of poles: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 (IEC 60947-2) — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
For a discontinued unit, match function and electrical ratings rather than the label alone.
