Weidmüller 1069360000 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1069360000 is a 2-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 5mm pitch, and 90° wire entry orientation. This component is designed for free-hanging inline applications requiring screw-clamping termination. The part is currently active in production with 1100 pieces available in stock. Alternative models may be required due to inventory constraints, specific wire entry angle requirements, or application-specific termination preferences.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 796640-2 is identified as a substitute for the Weidmüller 1069360000 based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 2
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm)
• Type: Plug, Female Sockets
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Voltage - UL: 300 V
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Contact Mating Finish: Tin
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Differing Parameters:

• Plug Wire Entry: 180° (straight) vs. 90° (right angle)
• Termination Style: Screw - Rising Cage Clamp vs. Screw - Clamping Yoke
• Current - UL: 15 A vs. 10 A
• Wire Gauge Range: 12-30 AWG / 0.05-3mm² vs. 12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 110°C vs. -50°C ~ 120°C
• Screw Size: M3 vs. M2.5

Substitution is valid when wire entry orientation and termination style differences are acceptable for the application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Weidmüller 1069360000 and TE Connectivity 796640-2 are active products with full compliance certifications. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific requirements:

Select Weidmüller 1069360000 when:

• 90° wire entry orientation is required for space-constrained or right-angle mounting applications
• Operating temperature range of -50°C to 120°C is necessary
• Clamping yoke termination style is specified in design documentation
• Wire gauge range of 0.2-2.5mm² is required

Select TE Connectivity 796640-2 when:

• 180° straight wire entry is acceptable or preferred
• Higher current rating of 15 A is beneficial for the application
• Rising cage clamp termination is compatible with assembly procedures
• Extended wire gauge compatibility (0.05-3mm²) is advantageous
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C is sufficient

Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and maintain MSL 1 moisture sensitivity ratings. RoHS compliance is confirmed for both variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 796640-2 be used as a direct replacement for the Weidmüller 1069360000?

A: Substitution is possible only if the application tolerates a 180° straight wire entry instead of 90° right-angle entry. The different termination styles (rising cage clamp vs. clamping yoke) may also affect assembly procedures and mechanical fit within the enclosure.

Q: What are the key differences that affect compatibility?

A: The primary differences are wire entry angle (90° vs. 180°), termination mechanism (clamping yoke vs. rising cage clamp), and screw size (M2.5 vs. M3). These differences may impact PCB layout, wire routing, and assembly tooling.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same voltage and current applications?

A: Both parts are rated for 300 V UL voltage. The TE Connectivity part has a higher current rating of 15 A compared to 10 A for the Weidmüller part. Applications requiring 10 A or less can use either part; applications requiring higher current should use the TE Connectivity variant.

Q: What is the wire gauge compatibility difference?

A: The Weidmüller part accepts 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²), while the TE Connectivity part accepts 12-30 AWG (0.05-3mm²). The TE Connectivity part offers broader wire gauge compatibility, particularly for smaller gauge wires.

Q: Do both parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: No. The Weidmüller part operates from -50°C to 120°C, while the TE Connectivity part operates from -40°C to 110°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 110°C must use the Weidmüller part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The Weidmüller part is RoHS Compliant, and the TE Connectivity part is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current RoHS requirements.
