Weidmüller 1982160000 Terminal Block Plug - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 1982160000 is a 6-position terminal block plug with female sockets, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, and 270° free-hanging in-line mounting. This component is part of the Omnimate BL series and features screwless push-in spring termination for wire gauges 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²).

The 1982160000 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent substitute parts ensures design continuity and maintains supply chain reliability for applications requiring this terminal block configuration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1982160000 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Current rating (IEC: 24A), voltage rating (IEC: 400V), and wire gauge acceptance (12-26 AWG / 0.2-2.5mm²) must match exactly
• Mechanical Compatibility: 6 positions, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, female socket type, 270° wire entry, and free-hanging in-line mounting must be identical
• Termination Method: Screwless push-in spring termination is required
• Environmental Ratings: Operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 100°C), material flammability (UL94 V-0), and ingress protection (IP20) must be maintained
• Compliance: RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status must be preserved

The substitute part 1982930000 meets all these criteria and is therefore a direct functional equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1982930000 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 1982160000. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters are identical. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

The only differences between the two parts are cosmetic (housing color: black versus orange) and product lifecycle status (obsolete versus active). These differences do not affect electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, or compliance certifications.

For new designs or component replacement in existing applications, the 1982930000 is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, with identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1982930000 be used as a direct replacement for the 1982160000?

A: Yes. The 1982930000 is electrically and mechanically identical to the 1982160000. All current ratings (24A IEC / 18.5A UL), voltage ratings (400V IEC / 300V UL), wire gauge acceptance (12-26 AWG), pitch (5.08mm), position count (6), and termination method (screwless push-in spring) are identical.

Q: Does the color difference between black (1982160000) and orange (1982930000) affect compatibility?

A: No. Housing color is a cosmetic attribute and does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional compatibility. Both parts are identical in all technical specifications.

Q: Why is the 1982160000 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is a lifecycle designation indicating that the part is no longer in active production. The 1982930000 is the active equivalent and is the recommended selection for current applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 1982160000 and 1982930000 are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, with identical compliance certifications.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the 1982930000?

A: The 1982930000 accepts wire gauges 12-26 AWG (0.2-2.5mm²), identical to the 1982160000.

Q: Is the 1982930000 suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -50°C to 100°C.
