Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Weidmüller 1893340000 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant or compatible:

• Connector Type & Configuration: 20-position plug with female sockets
• Pitch Specification: 0.200" (5.08mm) center-to-center spacing
• Mounting Style: Free hanging (in-line) orientation with 180° wire entry
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²)
• Electrical Ratings: Minimum 15A at 300V (UL) or 17A at 400V (IEC)
• Material & Safety: PBT housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating
• Operating Temperature Range: -50°C ~ 100°C
• Series Compatibility: Omnimate BL series

The substitute part 1014320000 maintains all critical parameters while offering improved electrical performance and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1014320000 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 1893340000. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 20-position configuration, 5.08mm pitch, free-hanging mounting, wire gauge compatibility, and operating temperature range.

The substitute part offers the following advantages:

• Active Product Status: 1014320000 is currently in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Enhanced Electrical Performance: Rated for 24A at 400V (IEC) and 18.5A at 300V (UL), exceeding the original part's 17A/15A ratings
• Improved Ingress Protection: IP20 rating provides additional environmental protection
• RoHS Compliance: 1014320000 meets RoHS requirements, supporting regulatory compliance in modern applications
• Identical Safety Certifications: Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and equivalent material specifications

Selection of 1014320000 is appropriate for all applications previously using 1893340000, with no design modifications required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 1014320000 directly replace the 1893340000 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically compatible. The 1014320000 maintains identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (20), mounting style (free-hanging in-line), and wire gauge range (12-26 AWG). No physical modifications to the connector interface or wiring are necessary.

Q: What is the difference in termination style between these parts?

A: The 1893340000 uses screwless spring cage with tension clamp termination. The 1014320000 uses leg spring with push-in spring termination. Both are screwless designs and provide equivalent mechanical retention and electrical contact performance for the specified wire gauge range.

Q: Are there any electrical rating differences that affect system design?

A: The 1014320000 provides higher current ratings (24A IEC / 18.5A UL) compared to the 1893340000 (17A IEC / 15A UL). This represents improved performance capability. If the original system operates within the 1893340000 ratings, the substitute will operate safely with additional margin.

Q: Does the packaging difference affect compatibility?

A: No. The 1893340000 is supplied without specified packaging, while 1014320000 is supplied in box packaging. Packaging affects logistics and storage only; it does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Is the IP20 ingress protection rating on the 1014320000 a requirement for substitution?

A: No. The IP20 rating on 1014320000 is an additional feature not present on the 1893340000. It provides enhanced environmental protection but is not required for functional equivalence. Applications not requiring ingress protection will operate identically with either part.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance on the 1014320000?

A: RoHS compliance on 1014320000 indicates restriction of hazardous substances in accordance with EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The 1893340000 is REACH Unaffected, meaning it predates or is exempt from REACH requirements. For new designs or applications subject to RoHS regulations, 1014320000 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -50°C to 100°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in all specified environmental conditions.
