Weidmüller 1509160000 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1509160000 is a 13-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on two sides, featuring 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch and 90° right-angle through-hole mounting. This component is part of the Omnimate SL series and is classified as obsolete. Finding equivalent substitute parts is necessary due to the discontinued status of this model, which may impact long-term component availability for maintenance and new production runs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Weidmüller 1146970000 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical electrical configuration: 13 positions at 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch
• Matching mechanical form factor: 90° right-angle through-hole header with male pins and two-side shrouding
• Compatible electrical ratings: IEC current rating of 24A (exceeds the original 18A), IEC voltage of 400V (matches), UL current of 18.5A (exceeds the original 15A), UL voltage of 300V (matches)
• Equivalent environmental specifications: Operating temperature range -50°C ~ 100°C, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, RoHS compliant
• Active product status: The substitute part is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability

The substitute part maintains functional and electrical compatibility while offering improved current-carrying capacity under both IEC and UL standards.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1146970000 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete 1509160000. Both components maintain identical mechanical interfaces and electrical performance within their respective standards. The substitute part offers enhanced current ratings (24A IEC vs. 18A IEC; 18.5A UL vs. 15A UL), providing additional design margin in applications operating near the original part's current limits.

Both parts carry RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards. The active production status of the 1146970000 guarantees component availability for both immediate replacement and future procurement requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1146970000 be used as a direct replacement for the 1509160000 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 13-position configuration, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, 90° right-angle orientation, and through-hole solder termination. Mechanical and electrical interfaces are fully compatible.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status (obsolete vs. active) and current ratings. The 1146970000 provides higher current capacity under both IEC (24A vs. 18A) and UL (18.5A vs. 15A) standards. Housing material differs slightly (Polyamide with glass fill vs. Polybutylene Terephthalate), and insulation height varies marginally (0.335" vs. 0.330").

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layouts designed for the 1509160000?

A: No. Identical pitch, position count, and through-hole mounting dimensions ensure direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Q: Does the substitute part meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability ratings. Voltage and temperature specifications remain equivalent.

Q: What is the packaging difference between these parts?

A: The 1509160000 packaging is listed as unspecified, while the 1146970000 is supplied in bulk packaging. This affects order quantities and handling but does not impact component functionality.
