Weidmüller 1624070000 Terminal Block Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1624070000 is a 5-position terminal block header with male pins, shrouded on 4 sides, designed for 90° right-angle through-hole mounting. This component operates at 15A (IEC) / 10A (UL) and 500V (IEC) / 300V (UL), featuring a 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch and tin-plated copper alloy contacts. The product is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing applications and new designs requiring this connector type.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the Weidmüller 1624070000 is determined by strict equivalence in the following critical parameters:

Number of Positions: 5 positions (non-negotiable)
Pitch: 0.300" (7.62mm) (non-negotiable)
Header Orientation: 90°, Right Angle (non-negotiable)
Type: Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (4 Side) (non-negotiable)
Mounting Type: Through Hole (non-negotiable)
Termination Style: Solder (non-negotiable)
Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (required for safety compliance)
Contact Mating Finish: Tin (required for electrical performance)

The identified substitute parts meet all mandatory parameters. Variations in current and voltage ratings, housing materials, and operating temperature ranges are acceptable provided the substitute meets or exceeds the application requirements of the original component.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both Phoenix Contact 1766262 and TE Connectivity 282966-5 are active product alternatives to the obsolete Weidmüller 1624070000. Selection between these substitutes should be based on the following factors:

Phoenix Contact 1766262: This component is ROHS3 compliant and offers higher IEC voltage rating (630V vs. 500V). The UL current rating (15A) exceeds the original specification. This option is suitable for applications requiring enhanced regulatory compliance and higher voltage margins.

TE Connectivity 282966-5: This component is RoHS compliant with a specified operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 110°C. The UL current rating (15A) exceeds the original specification. This option is suitable for applications with defined temperature operating windows within the stated range.

Both substitutes maintain the critical mechanical and electrical parameters: 5-position configuration, 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch, 90° right-angle orientation, through-hole solder termination, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and tin-plated contacts. Physical dimensions (insulation height and contact tail length) are within acceptable tolerance ranges for PCB mounting compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Phoenix Contact 1766262 or TE Connectivity 282966-5 be used as direct replacements for Weidmüller 1624070000?

A: Yes. Both parts meet all mandatory substitution criteria: 5-position configuration, 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch, 90° right-angle through-hole header with male pins, shrouded on 4 sides, solder termination, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and tin-plated contacts. Mechanical and electrical compatibility is established.

Q: What are the differences in current and voltage ratings?

A: Phoenix Contact 1766262 provides 12A (IEC) and 630V (IEC), compared to the original 15A (IEC) and 500V (IEC). TE Connectivity 282966-5 does not specify IEC ratings. Both provide 15A (UL) and 300V (UL), meeting or exceeding the original 10A (UL) and 300V (UL). Selection depends on whether IEC or UL ratings apply to your application.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature ranges?

A: Weidmüller 1624070000 operates from -50°C to 130°C. Phoenix Contact 1766262 does not specify an operating temperature range. TE Connectivity 282966-5 operates from -40°C to 110°C. Verify that the substitute's temperature range encompasses your application requirements.

Q: Do the substitute parts have different physical dimensions?

A: Contact tail length differs: Weidmüller 1624070000 is 0.177" (4.50mm), while both substitutes are 0.138" (4.60mm). Insulation heights are comparable (8.36mm to 8.61mm). These dimensional variations are within acceptable PCB mounting tolerances for standard through-hole applications.

Q: What are the regulatory compliance differences?

A: Phoenix Contact 1766262 is ROHS3 compliant. TE Connectivity 282966-5 is RoHS compliant. Both are REACH unaffected or vendor-defined. Select based on your product's regulatory requirements.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same assembly?

A: Yes, provided your application does not require identical physical or electrical characteristics across all positions. If uniform specifications are mandatory, select a single substitute part for the entire assembly.
