Lifecycle & availability
Schneider lists the A9L16312 as discontinued with no official successor cartridge. For a BOM freeze or line-down need, sourcing runs through surplus and broker channels rather than current distribution. The closest functional peer is the A9L16311 (C20-350), which shares the same 57.0 mm depth, 12.0 mm width, 50.0 mm height, IP20 rating, and 230 V supply, but offers a 5000 A switching current — double the A9L16312's 2500 A. An RFQ is the fastest path to confirm available quantity and lead time.
