Where it sits in the control system
The 2297138 is the device-level element in a Phoenix Contact contactor installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — <= 690 V AC — and switches or conditions the load within the <= 690 V AC 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 motor starters, pump control panels, HVAC contactor banks, 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.
