Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1102140-1 is based on functional and mechanical equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector Configuration: Both the main part and substitute maintain identical connector type (Base - Panel Mount), style (Bottom Entry), and size (5) specifications.

Environmental Protection: The IP65 ingress protection rating is maintained across all substitute parts, ensuring equivalent dust-tight and water-resistant performance.

Mechanical Interface: Lock location configuration (Locking Clip on Base Bottom) remains consistent, supporting mechanical compatibility with mating components.

Housing Construction: Aluminum die-cast housing material is preserved in substitute parts, maintaining structural integrity and thermal characteristics.

Regulatory Compliance: All parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8538.90.8180) classifications, ensuring consistent export and tariff treatment.

Material Compatibility: Aluminum die-cast housing construction is maintained across both parts, preserving thermal and structural characteristics required for heavy duty connector applications.

Regulatory Alignment: Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, ensuring consistent regulatory treatment and supply chain processing.

Compliance Status: The Weidmüller substitute is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, providing enhanced compliance posture compared to the obsolete TE Connectivity part.

Availability: The Weidmüller 1664920000 is classified as Active with 1138 pieces in stock, ensuring reliable supply continuity for new designs and replacement applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes the Weidmüller 1664920000 a suitable substitute for the TE Connectivity 1102140-1?

A: Both connectors share identical functional specifications: Base - Panel Mount connector type, Bottom Entry style, Size 5 configuration, IP65 ingress protection, aluminum die-cast housing, and identical locking clip mechanism. These parameters define mechanical and environmental compatibility with mating components.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between the main part and substitute?

A: Yes. The Weidmüller 1664920000 has slightly larger length (98.00mm vs. 96.00mm) and width (33.00mm vs. 30.00mm) dimensions, but reduced height (26.25mm vs. 28.00mm). These dimensional variations remain within the tolerance envelope for panel mount applications with bottom entry configuration.

Q: Does the housing finish difference affect performance?

A: The TE Connectivity part uses Aluminum Oxide finish, while the Weidmüller substitute uses Powder Coated finish. Both finishes provide corrosion protection suitable for IP65-rated applications. The choice between finishes depends on specific environmental exposure and aesthetic requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The TE Connectivity 1102140-1 is obsolete, meaning it is no longer manufactured and supply is limited to existing inventory. The Weidmüller 1664920000 is Active, indicating ongoing production and reliable long-term availability for new designs and replacement needs.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The Weidmüller 1664920000 is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, providing enhanced environmental compliance. The TE Connectivity part shows RoHS Status as Not Applicable. Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8538.90.8180) classifications.

Q: Can the Weidmüller substitute be used in existing designs using the TE Connectivity connector?

A: Functional compatibility is supported by identical connector type, style, size, locking mechanism, and ingress protection rating. Dimensional variations require verification against specific panel cutout and mounting specifications in the application design.

Q: What packaging format is available for the Weidmüller substitute?

A: The Weidmüller 1664920000 is supplied in Bulk packaging, compared to the TE Connectivity part which does not specify packaging format.
