Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Weidmüller 997229 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• 8 positions per level with 2-level configuration
• 0.200" (5.08mm) pitch spacing
• Horizontal with board mating orientation
• Through-hole PCB mounting
• Screw-based wire termination
• Black housing color
• RoHS compliance

The substitute part Weidmüller 1769140000 meets all these core requirements and provides a direct functional replacement for the obsolete 997229.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Weidmüller 1769140000 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 997229. Both components share identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications: 8-position, 2-level configuration with 5.08mm pitch, horizontal board mounting, and through-hole termination.

The 1769140000 is currently in active production status with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected certification, matching the regulatory compliance profile of the original part. The substitute provides enhanced technical documentation through its Omnimate LM series designation and includes specified electrical ratings (10 A, 300 V) and operating temperature range (-20°C to 100°C), which support design verification and system integration.

Both parts carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications, ensuring consistent regulatory treatment in procurement and logistics workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1769140000 directly replace the 997229 in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (5.08mm), position count (8 per level, 2 levels), mating orientation (horizontal with board), and through-hole mounting footprint. PCB layout compatibility is maintained without design modification.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 997229 has reached obsolete status. The 1769140000 provides functional equivalence with active production availability and current technical support.

Q: Are there differences in wire termination between these parts?

A: Both use screw-based termination. The 1769140000 specifies clamping yoke and tension sleeve design with M2.5 screw thread and 0.4-0.5 Nm torque specification, providing enhanced termination reliability.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both are RoHS Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with the 1769140000?

A: The substitute supports 12-24 AWG wire gauge range, accommodating standard industrial control wiring applications.

Q: Is packaging different between these parts?

A: The 997229 packaging is not specified. The 1769140000 is supplied in bulk packaging, standard for active production terminal block components.
