Weidmüller 995030 Terminal Block: Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 995030 is an 11-position wire-to-board terminal block with 5.00mm pitch, designed for horizontal PCB mounting through-hole applications. This component operates at 300V with a 15A current rating and accommodates wire gauges from 12-26 AWG. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications requiring compatible 11-position, 5.00mm pitch terminal block solutions.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Weidmüller 995030 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• 11 positions per level (fixed requirement)
• 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch (fixed requirement)
• Horizontal with board mating orientation (fixed requirement)
• Through-hole mounting (fixed requirement)
• 300V voltage rating (minimum requirement)
• M3 screw thread (mechanical compatibility)
• Polyamide (PA66) housing material (preferred for consistency)

All three substitute parts meet these core criteria. Variations in current rating, wire gauge acceptance, wire termination method, and operating temperature are secondary parameters that may affect suitability depending on application requirements but do not disqualify substitution based on form factor and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity 1-282856-1 is the primary substitute for new designs and production transitions. This part is active, ROHS3 compliant, and provides the highest current rating (24A), exceeding the original 15A specification. Wire gauge acceptance spans 12-30 AWG, fully covering the original 12-26 AWG range. M3 screw thread compatibility ensures direct mechanical fit.

TE Connectivity 1-282836-1 serves as an alternative where current requirements are lower. This part is RoHS compliant and active. The 14.6A rating is below the original specification; verify application current demands before selection. Wire gauge range of 16-30 AWG does not accommodate 12-14 AWG conductors.

Eaton EM258511V is suitable where extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) is required. This part is active and provides 16A current rating. The M2.6 screw thread differs from the original M3, requiring verification of PCB hole sizing and assembly compatibility. Wire gauge range matches the original specification (12-26 AWG).

All three substitutes maintain the critical 11-position, 5.00mm pitch, horizontal through-hole configuration required for form-factor compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use TE Connectivity 1-282836-1 as a direct replacement for Weidmüller 995030?

A: Form-factor compatibility is confirmed (11 positions, 5.00mm pitch, M3 thread, 300V rating). However, the 14.6A current rating is lower than the original 15A specification. Verify that your application current does not exceed 14.6A. Additionally, the wire gauge range (16-30 AWG) excludes 12-14 AWG conductors; confirm wire sizes used in your assembly.

Q: What is the difference between the two TE Connectivity options?

A: TE Connectivity 1-282856-1 provides 24A current capacity and accepts 12-30 AWG wire, offering broader compatibility. TE Connectivity 1-282836-1 provides 14.6A current capacity and accepts 16-30 AWG wire. Select 1-282856-1 for applications requiring higher current or smaller wire gauges (12-14 AWG).

Q: Why does Eaton EM258511V use M2.6 screws instead of M3?

A: The Eaton part uses M2.6 screw threads as part of its design specification. This requires verification that your PCB mounting holes are sized for M2.6 fasteners. If your PCB is drilled for M3, this part may not be mechanically compatible without PCB modification.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: TE Connectivity 1-282856-1 is ROHS3 compliant. TE Connectivity 1-282836-1 is RoHS compliant. Eaton EM258511V RoHS status is not specified in available documentation. Verify compliance requirements for your application before final selection.

Q: Can I mix wire gauges within a single terminal block?

A: Wire gauge specifications define the acceptable range for individual conductor connections. Mixing gauges within a single block is permitted within the specified range for each substitute part. Ensure all conductors fall within the rated range for your selected part.
