Weidmüller 995067 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 995067 is a 6-position wire-to-board terminal block with 5.00mm pitch, designed for horizontal mounting through PCB holes. This component belongs to the Omnimate LP series and is currently in active production status with 1042 units in stock. Terminal blocks of this specification are essential in industrial control systems, power distribution panels, and modular electronic assemblies where reliable wire-to-board connections are required. Equivalent substitute parts may be necessary due to supply chain constraints, regional availability, or specific application requirements that demand alternative electrical or mechanical characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Weidmüller 995067 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Positions Per Level: 6
• Pitch: 0.197" (5.00mm)
• Mating Orientation: Horizontal with Board
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Screw Thread: M3
• Housing Material: Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
• Features: Interlocking (Side)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Current Rating: Substitute must meet or exceed 15 A
• Voltage Rating: Must meet or exceed 300 V
• Wire Gauge: Must accommodate 12-26 AWG minimum
• Wire Termination: Alternative screw-based termination methods acceptable
• Contact Material Plating: Alternative plating compositions acceptable
• Operating Temperature: Must cover or exceed -20°C ~ 100°C range

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 796683-6 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these criteria. Both components share identical mechanical form factors, pitch spacing, mounting methodology, and core electrical ratings within acceptable tolerance ranges.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Weidmüller 995067 and TE Connectivity 796683-6 are active production components suitable for new designs and replacement applications. The TE Connectivity 796683-6 offers enhanced electrical performance with a 17.5 A current rating versus the 15 A rating of the Weidmüller part, and accommodates a broader wire gauge range (12-30 AWG versus 12-26 AWG). The TE Connectivity part carries ROHS3 compliance certification, which may be advantageous for applications subject to European Union environmental regulations. The Weidmüller part maintains REACH Unaffected status, while the TE Connectivity part is REACH Affected, representing a regulatory distinction that may influence selection based on end-use market requirements. Both components utilize M3 screw threads and identical pitch spacing, ensuring mechanical interchangeability within PCB layouts. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance requirements, current capacity needs, and wire gauge accommodation specifications for the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 796683-6 be used as a direct replacement for the Weidmüller 995067 in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch spacing (5.00mm), position count (6), mounting type (through hole), and screw thread specification (M3). PCB footprints designed for the Weidmüller 995067 will accommodate the TE Connectivity 796683-6 without modification.

Q: What is the primary difference in wire termination between these two parts?

A: The Weidmüller 995067 uses a Clamping Yoke with Tension Sleeve termination method, while the TE Connectivity 796683-6 employs a Rising Cage Clamp mechanism. Both are screw-based termination systems and provide equivalent electrical and mechanical performance for wire retention.

Q: Does the higher current rating of the TE Connectivity part affect compatibility?

A: No. A substitute part with a higher current rating (17.5 A versus 15 A) is fully compatible and may provide additional design margin for applications operating near the original component's current limit.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The Weidmüller 995067 is supplied in standard packaging, while the TE Connectivity 796683-6 is supplied in bulk packaging. This distinction affects procurement and handling procedures but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: What regulatory compliance differences exist between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 796683-6 carries ROHS3 compliance certification, making it suitable for applications subject to European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. The Weidmüller 995067 is marked as REACH Unaffected, while the TE Connectivity part is REACH Affected. Applications requiring specific regulatory compliance should verify these certifications against end-use market requirements.

Q: Can both parts accommodate the same wire gauge range?

A: The TE Connectivity 796683-6 accommodates a broader range (12-30 AWG) compared to the Weidmüller 995067 (12-26 AWG). Both parts support the full 12-26 AWG range, making them compatible for applications within this specification window.
