Where it sits in the control system
The 2700973 is the device-level element in a Phoenix Contact circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — 24 V DC (IEC 61131-2) — 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 2700973
Phoenix Contact 2700973 — PLC / CPU module used as the device-level control core in an automation panel, handling logic, timing and communication tasks. The figures below are taken from the specification table on this page for catalog number 2700973; record the nameplate data of the unit being replaced before selecting an equivalent.
- Supply voltage: 24 V DC (IEC 61131-2) — Check this value against the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
- Input voltage range: -0.5 V ... 30 V — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
- Output current: 500 mA — Record it with the other nameplate data when sourcing a replacement.
- Weight: 360 g — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
For a discontinued unit, match function and electrical ratings rather than the label alone.
