Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Weidmüller 1566650000 is determined by the following critical parameters that must align across candidate parts:

• Connector Type & Gender: Female insert configuration
• Position Count: 16+Ground position requirement
• Size Classification: Size 3 form factor
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 600V voltage and 10A current capacity
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 125°C range compatibility
• Flammability Compliance: UL94 V-0 material rating
• Mechanical Interface: Physical compatibility with mating connectors

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2-1103007-3 qualifies as a functional substitute based on matching gender, position count, size, electrical ratings, temperature range, and flammability compliance. The primary difference lies in termination methodology: the Weidmüller uses screw termination while the TE Connectivity alternative employs crimp termination, requiring corresponding changes to wire preparation and assembly procedures.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 represents an active product alternative to the obsolete Weidmüller 1566650000. Both components maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and support identical operating temperature ranges and current ratings. The TE Connectivity part is actively manufactured and stocked, providing supply chain continuity for applications requiring 16+Ground position female inserts in Size 3 heavy duty connector configurations.

Selection of the TE Connectivity substitute requires evaluation of termination methodology compatibility. The transition from screw termination to crimp termination necessitates corresponding changes to wire preparation equipment and assembly procedures. The voltage rating differential (250V versus 600V) should be assessed against specific application requirements to confirm adequacy for the intended electrical environment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 directly replace the Weidmüller 1566650000 in existing assemblies?

A: Physical mating compatibility is supported due to matching Size 3 form factor, 16+Ground position configuration, and female gender. However, termination methodology differs fundamentally: the Weidmüller uses screw termination while the TE Connectivity part requires crimp termination. Assembly procedures and tooling must be adapted accordingly.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference between these parts?

A: The Weidmüller 1566650000 is rated for 600V while the TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 is rated for 250V. Applications operating at voltages exceeding 250V require confirmation that the TE Connectivity part meets system voltage requirements before substitution.

Q: Are both parts compliant with the same flammability standards?

A: Yes. Both the Weidmüller 1566650000 and TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 meet UL94 V-0 material flammability requirements, ensuring equivalent performance in fire safety classifications.

Q: What does "Insert without Contacts" mean for the TE Connectivity part?

A: The TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 is supplied as a housing insert without pre-installed contacts. Contacts must be selected and installed separately according to the HD.M contact type specification and crimp termination requirements.

Q: How does product status affect component selection?

A: The Weidmüller 1566650000 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The TE Connectivity 2-1103007-3 maintains active product status with ongoing manufacturing and established supply channels, supporting long-term design and maintenance requirements.
