Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Weidmüller 1702320000 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Current rating (IEC: 15A; UL: 10A), voltage rating (IEC: 800V; UL: 300V)
• Mechanical Configuration: 11 positions, 0.295" (7.50mm) pitch, 270° wire entry angle, free-hanging mounting
• Termination Method: Screw-clamping yoke (tension sleeve) with M2.5 screw and 0.4-0.5 Nm torque specification
• Wire Compatibility: 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) wire gauge range, 7mm strip length
• Material & Environmental: Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing, copper alloy contacts, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, operating temperature -50°C ~ 100°C
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected status

The substitute part 1702540000 meets all these criteria with identical specifications across all functional parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1702540000 is the direct functional equivalent of the obsolete 1702320000. Both components are manufactured by Weidmüller within the Omnimate BL series and maintain identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Both parts satisfy RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected regulatory requirements. The identical material composition (PBT housing, copper alloy contacts), flammability rating (UL94 V-0), and environmental operating range (-50°C ~ 100°C) ensure functional interchangeability in all applications where the original part was specified.

The only distinction between the two parts is product lifecycle status: 1702320000 is obsolete, while 1702540000 is active. For new designs and ongoing maintenance applications, 1702540000 is the appropriate selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1702540000 be used as a direct replacement for 1702320000?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical across all electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters. The substitute part is functionally equivalent and maintains the same 11-position configuration, 7.50mm pitch, 270° wire entry, screw-clamping termination, and current/voltage ratings (IEC: 15A/800V; UL: 10A/300V).

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. Part 1702320000 is classified as obsolete, while 1702540000 is active. All technical specifications, including wire gauge compatibility (12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²), operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 100°C), and regulatory compliance (RoHS, REACH) are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between 1702320000 and 1702540000?

A: The main part (1702320000) is supplied with unspecified packaging, while the substitute (1702540000) is supplied in bulk packaging. This distinction does not affect component functionality or electrical performance.

Q: Which part should be specified for new designs?

A: Part 1702540000 should be specified for new designs. As an active product with identical specifications to the obsolete 1702320000, it ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are both parts suitable for applications requiring UL94 V-0 flammability compliance?

A: Yes. Both 1702320000 and 1702540000 carry UL94 V-0 material flammability ratings and are RoHS compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and safety-critical applications.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with these terminal blocks?

A: Both parts accept wire gauges from 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) with a required strip length of 7mm. Termination is achieved using M2.5 screws with a torque specification of 0.4-0.5 Nm (4.6-4.4 Lb-In).
