Weidmüller 995160 Terminal Block - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Weidmüller 995160 is an 11-position wire-to-board terminal block with 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, designed for horizontal mounting through PCB holes. This component belongs to the Omnimate LP series and features screw-clamping wire termination with side interlocking. The part is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitutes essential for ongoing system maintenance and new designs requiring equivalent functionality.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the Weidmüller 995160 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: 11 positions, 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch, horizontal with board orientation, and through-hole mounting must remain constant to ensure PCB footprint alignment and connector mating.
Electrical Compatibility: 300 V voltage rating is maintained across substitute options.
Functional Compatibility: Side interlocking feature must be preserved for mechanical stability.
Wire Termination: While the main part uses screw-clamping termination, substitute parts may employ alternative termination methods (screwless push-in) provided they accommodate the specified wire gauge range.

The Weidmüller 1330810000 qualifies as a substitute based on these core parameters, despite differences in current rating, wire gauge range, termination method, and product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1330810000 serves as the primary substitute for the obsolete 995160 model. Selection should be based on the following criteria:

Product Status: The 1330810000 is active and currently available, whereas the 995160 is obsolete. For new designs or ongoing production requiring terminal block functionality, the 1330810000 is the appropriate choice.

Compliance: The 1330810000 carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the 995160 is not applicable. Systems requiring RoHS compliance must transition to the 1330810000.

Electrical Performance: The 1330810000 provides a higher current rating (20 A versus 15 A) and extended operating temperature range (-50°C ~ 120°C versus -20°C ~ 100°C), offering improved performance margins in demanding applications.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts maintain identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (11), and through-hole mounting, ensuring direct PCB footprint compatibility.

Termination Method: The transition from screw-clamping to screwless push-in termination requires assembly procedure changes but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility for wire-to-board connections within the specified wire gauge overlap (12-24 AWG).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Weidmüller 1330810000 directly replace the 995160 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (11), and through-hole mounting dimensions. PCB footprints are compatible without modification.

Q: What is the wire gauge compatibility between the two parts?

A: The 995160 accepts 12-26 AWG wire, while the 1330810000 accepts 12-24 AWG wire. The overlap range is 12-24 AWG, which covers the majority of standard applications. Wires larger than 24 AWG cannot be used with the 1330810000.

Q: Does the change from screw-clamping to push-in termination affect reliability?

A: Both termination methods are designed for permanent wire-to-board connections. The push-in spring mechanism in the 1330810000 provides equivalent electrical contact and mechanical retention. Assembly procedures differ, but functional reliability is maintained.

Q: Is the 1330810000 suitable for applications requiring the full -20°C ~ 100°C temperature range of the 995160?

A: Yes. The 1330810000 operates across -50°C ~ 120°C, which encompasses the original temperature range. The extended range provides additional margin for thermal stress conditions.

Q: What are the packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 995160 is listed with no specified packaging designation, while the 1330810000 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are both parts REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 995160 and 1330810000 carry REACH Unaffected status, indicating compliance with REACH regulations.
