Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1898830000 is a 3-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch, and 90° wire entry. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new designs. The part features screw-clamping termination, free-hanging mounting, and is rated for 15A (IEC) / 10A (UL) operation. Due to its obsolete status, sourcing equivalent or substitute components is necessary for procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1898830000 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Connector Type & Configuration: Must be a 3-position terminal block plug with female sockets and 5.00mm pitch
Wire Entry Orientation: Must maintain 90° plug wire entry for mechanical compatibility
Termination Method: Must use screw-clamping termination (Tension Sleeve)
Mounting Style: Must be free-hanging (in-line) configuration
Electrical Ratings: Substitute must meet or exceed IEC 15A / 400V and UL 10A / 300V ratings
Wire Gauge Compatibility: Must accommodate 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²) minimum
Material & Compliance: Must maintain PBT housing, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and RoHS compliance

The Weidmüller 1959510000 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. While it offers enhanced electrical ratings (23A IEC / 20A UL) and expanded wire gauge range (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm²), it maintains identical mechanical form factor, pitch, wire entry angle, termination style, and mounting configuration.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1959510000 is the direct substitute for the obsolete 1898830000. Both components are manufactured by Weidmüller within the Omnimate BL series and share identical mechanical and electrical form factors. The 1959510000 maintains active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

From a compliance perspective, both parts are RoHS compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification. The 1959510000 provides enhanced electrical performance with higher current ratings (23A IEC / 20A UL versus 15A IEC / 10A UL) and expanded wire gauge accommodation (12-30 AWG / 0.2-4mm² versus 12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²). These improvements do not compromise backward compatibility; the substitute operates within all electrical and mechanical parameters of the original design.

Selection of the 1959510000 is appropriate for both replacement applications and new designs requiring this connector category.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1959510000 directly replace the 1898830000 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.00mm), wire entry angle (90°), termination method (screw-clamping), mounting configuration (free-hanging), and connector type (3-position plug with female sockets). Mechanical and electrical compatibility is confirmed.

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

A: The primary differences are product status and electrical ratings. The 1898830000 is obsolete with 15A (IEC) / 10A (UL) ratings, while the 1959510000 is active with 23A (IEC) / 20A (UL) ratings. The 1959510000 also accommodates larger wire gauges (up to 30 AWG and 4mm²). All other specifications remain identical.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: The 1898830000 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the 1959510000 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect component functionality or compatibility.

Q: Does the higher current rating of the 1959510000 affect compatibility?

A: No. Higher current ratings indicate enhanced capability and do not create compatibility issues. The 1959510000 operates safely within all electrical parameters of the original 1898830000 design.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1898830000 and 1959510000 are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
