Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the WAGO 2060-903 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Number of Positions: 3
• Pitch: 0.157" (4.00mm)
• Connector Type: Board-to-Board Jumper
• Termination Method: Poke-In
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Voltage Rating: 250V
• Current Rating: 9A
• Operating Temperature Range: -60°C to 105°C

Allowable Variations:

• Contact finish (tin to silver plating)
• Housing material composition (PPA glass-filled to polyamide nylon 6/6)
• Product status (obsolete to active)

The substitute part WAGO 2060-953/028-000 meets all mandatory matching parameters while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original 2060-903 specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The WAGO 2060-953/028-000 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete WAGO 2060-903. Both connectors maintain identical electrical specifications (250V, 9A) and mechanical configuration (3-position, 4.00mm pitch, poke-in termination).

The substitute part offers the following advantages:

Regulatory Compliance: The 2060-953/028-000 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for component procurement and deployment.

Active Product Status: The substitute is an active product with documented inventory availability, ensuring long-term supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete original part.

Material Specification: The polyamide (PA) nylon 6/6 housing material of the substitute maintains mechanical and thermal performance equivalent to the original PPA glass-filled housing across the specified operating temperature range of -60°C to 105°C.

Contact Finish: Silver plating on the substitute provides equivalent electrical performance to the tin-plated contacts of the original, with no functional impact on circuit operation within the specified voltage and current parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the WAGO 2060-953/028-000 be used as a direct replacement for the WAGO 2060-903 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical electrical ratings (250V, 9A), mechanical configuration (3-position, 4.00mm pitch), termination method (poke-in), and operating temperature range (-60°C to 105°C). The substitute is the manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between tin and silver contact finishes in this application?

A: Both finishes provide adequate electrical conductivity for the specified 9A current rating and 250V voltage rating. The contact finish difference does not affect functional compatibility or performance in solid state lighting connector applications.

Q: Does the housing material change from PPA glass-filled to polyamide nylon 6/6 affect mechanical compatibility?

A: No. Both housing materials maintain the required mechanical strength and thermal stability across the -60°C to 105°C operating range. The dimensional specifications and poke-in termination interface remain identical.

Q: Why is the substitute part ROHS3 compliant while the original is not specified?

A: The original WAGO 2060-903 is obsolete and predates current regulatory documentation standards. The substitute WAGO 2060-953/028-000 is an active product manufactured to current ROHS3 compliance requirements.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level mean?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions without requiring special moisture control measures. This simplifies inventory management and procurement logistics.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the original and substitute?

A: The original WAGO 2060-903 packaging is not specified. The substitute WAGO 2060-953/028-000 is supplied in box packaging with 979 units in current stock inventory.
