Weidmüller 1684000000 Terminal Block Header – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1684000000 is a 2-position terminal block header with female sockets, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, and 90° right-angle orientation for through-hole mounting. This component is part of the Omnimate BL series and is classified as obsolete. Finding equivalent substitute parts is necessary due to the discontinued status of this product line, ensuring continued availability for maintenance, repair, and new production applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Weidmüller 1684000000 must satisfy the following critical parameters to ensure functional and mechanical compatibility:

• Number of Positions: 2 (exact match required)
• Pitch: 0.200" (5.08mm) (exact match required)
• Header Orientation: 90°, Right Angle (exact match required)
• Termination Style: Solder (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Type: Header, Female Sockets (exact match required)
• Current Rating (UL): Minimum 15 A
• Voltage Rating (UL): Minimum 300 V
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0 (exact match required)

The Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 meets all critical substitution criteria and is classified as an active product, providing long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Weidmüller 1684000000. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

• Functional Equivalence: Both parts share identical electrical ratings (15 A at 300 V UL), pitch (5.08mm), orientation (90° right angle), and termination method (solder through-hole).
• Product Status: The ELFB02230 is classified as active, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain reliability, whereas the original part is obsolete.
• Compliance: Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and are classified under the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4040), confirming regulatory equivalence.
• RoHS Compliance: The ELFB02230 is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental standards.

The ELFB02230 is suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring the Weidmüller 1684000000, with no circuit redesign or PCB modification necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 be used as a direct replacement for the Weidmüller 1684000000?

A: Yes. Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical pitch (5.08mm), orientation (90° right angle), electrical ratings (15 A, 300 V UL), and termination method (solder through-hole). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer, product status (obsolete vs. active), contact material (copper alloy vs. phosphor bronze), housing material (PBT vs. polyamide PA46), and physical dimensions (contact tail length and insulation height). These differences do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Why is the Weidmüller 1684000000 obsolete?

A: The part is listed as obsolete by the manufacturer. The Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 provides an active alternative with equivalent performance and specifications.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: The Weidmüller 1684000000 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your supplier.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification, are classified under ECCN EAR99, and share the same HTSUS code (8536.69.4040). The ELFB02230 additionally meets ROHS3 compliance requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the substitute part?

A: The Amphenol PCD ELFB02230 operates from -20°C to 125°C, providing a higher maximum temperature rating than the original Weidmüller part (-20°C to 100°C).
