Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the Weidmüller 995004 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Position count and pitch: Both main and substitute parts must maintain 6 positions at 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
• Mating orientation: Horizontal with board orientation is required for mechanical fit
• Electrical ratings: Current and voltage ratings must meet or exceed the original specification (15 A, 300 V minimum)
• Wire gauge compatibility: Acceptable wire gauge range must accommodate the original 12-26 AWG specification
• Mounting method: Through-hole PCB mounting is mandatory
• Screw thread specification: M3 thread ensures mechanical compatibility with existing assembly processes
• Interlocking feature: Side interlocking is required for proper connector alignment and retention

The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G satisfies all critical substitution criteria while offering enhanced electrical performance and active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete Weidmüller 995004. Selection should be based on the following factors:

Product Status: The Weidmüller 995004 is classified as obsolete with no active manufacturing. The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G maintains active product status with 2880 units in current inventory, ensuring long-term supply chain availability.

Compliance and Certifications: The Amphenol Anytek substitute is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the original part carries not-applicable RoHS status. Both components are REACH unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99. The substitute's enhanced compliance posture aligns with modern regulatory requirements.

Electrical Performance: The substitute component exceeds the original specifications in current rating (16 A vs. 15 A) and operating temperature range (-40°C to 115°C vs. -20°C to 100°C), providing improved performance margins for demanding applications.

Mechanical Compatibility: All critical mechanical parameters—pitch, position count, mounting type, and screw thread—are identical, ensuring direct PCB footprint compatibility without layout modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G be used as a direct replacement for the Weidmüller 995004 without PCB redesign?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (5.00mm), position count (6), mounting type (through-hole), and screw thread (M3) specifications. PCB footprints are compatible without modification.

Q: What are the differences in wire termination between these components?

A: The Weidmüller 995004 uses screw-clamping yoke with tension sleeve termination. The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G employs a rising cage clamp termination method. Both are screw-based clamping systems compatible with the specified wire gauge ranges.

Q: Does the wider wire gauge acceptance (12-28 AWG vs. 12-26 AWG) of the substitute affect compatibility?

A: No. The substitute's expanded wire gauge range (12-28 AWG) encompasses the original specification (12-26 AWG), ensuring compatibility with all wire sizes originally supported.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The Weidmüller 995004 packaging is not specified. The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: What is the impact of the different operating temperature ranges?

A: The Amphenol Anytek substitute supports -40°C to 115°C, compared to the original -20°C to 100°C. This extended range provides additional thermal margin for applications operating at temperature extremes.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: The Weidmüller 995004 carries not-applicable RoHS status. The Amphenol Anytek VI0601550000G is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental regulations for new designs and applications with RoHS requirements.
