Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Weidmüller 1723840000 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Same manufacturer (Weidmüller) and series (Omnimate BL)
• Identical connector type (Plug, Female Sockets)
• Matching number of positions (3)
• Identical pitch specification (0.200" / 5.08mm)
• Same mounting configuration (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Identical plug wire entry orientation (180°)
• Equivalent or superior electrical ratings (current and voltage)
• Compatible wire gauge ranges
• Matching operating temperature range
• Identical color (Green)
• Same contact material (Copper Alloy)
• Equivalent flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Same screw size (M2.5)

The substitute part 1137310000 meets all these criteria while offering enhanced electrical performance and expanded wire gauge compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1137310000 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1723840000. Both components are from the same Omnimate BL series and maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications.

The substitute part offers the following advantages:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
• Enhanced current ratings (23A IEC / 20A UL versus 14A IEC / 10A UL) provide increased capacity margin
• Expanded wire gauge compatibility (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm² versus 14-26 AWG / 0.2-1.5mm²) accommodates a broader range of conductor sizes
• Clamping Yoke termination style provides alternative mechanical retention compared to Leaf Spring configuration
• Both components maintain identical compliance certifications (RoHS, REACH, UL94 V-0)

Physical compatibility is confirmed through matching pitch, position count, mounting type, and wire entry orientation. The substitute part is suitable for direct replacement in applications currently using the 1723840000.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1137310000 directly replace the 1723840000 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (3), mounting type (free-hanging in-line), and wire entry orientation (180°). The substitute part meets or exceeds all electrical specifications of the original component.

Q: What is the difference between the termination styles?

A: The 1723840000 uses Screw - Leaf Spring with Wire Guard termination, while the 1137310000 uses Screw - Clamping Yoke (Tension Sleeve) termination. Both are screw-based termination methods with identical screw size (M2.5) and torque specifications (0.4-0.5 Nm).

Q: Are there wire gauge compatibility considerations?

A: The 1137310000 accepts a wider wire gauge range (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm²) compared to the 1723840000 (14-26 AWG / 0.2-1.5mm²). Applications using wire gauges within the original specification remain fully compatible with the substitute part.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The 1723840000 (obsolete) has 994 pieces in stock. The 1137310000 (active) has 955 pieces in stock. The active status of the substitute part ensures long-term availability.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1723840000 and 1137310000 are RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 1723840000 packaging is not specified. The 1137310000 is supplied in Bulk packaging.
