Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete SCHURTER 0033.6003 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Current Rating: 10A (AC)
• Voltage Rating: 250V AC
• Circuit Configuration: Series, Parallel Connections
• Switch Function: On-On-On-On-On-On (6 positions)

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Number of Positions: 6
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: Circular - 30.00mm Dia
• Mounting Type: Panel Mount

Regulatory & Environmental:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• Operating Temperature Range capability
• Approval Agency certifications

The SCHURTER 0033.3522 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all critical electrical parameters, mechanical mounting specifications, and regulatory compliance requirements. Both components share identical current and voltage ratings, circuit configurations, position count, and panel cutout dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SCHURTER 0033.3522 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 0033.6003 based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both components maintain identical current (10A AC) and voltage (250V AC) ratings with matching circuit configurations and switch functions, ensuring direct functional replacement in existing applications.

Mechanical Compatibility: Identical panel cutout dimensions (30.00mm circular) and mounting type enable direct panel integration without mechanical redesign. The 0033.3522 features a reduced depth behind flange (21.50mm versus 31.00mm), which may provide installation advantages in space-constrained applications.

Regulatory Compliance: The 0033.3522 maintains ROHS3 compliance and holds active certifications from CSA, UR, and VDE, meeting or exceeding the regulatory requirements of the obsolete part. The addition of VDE certification provides enhanced European market compliance.

Product Status: The 0033.3522 is classified as active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete 0033.6003.

Operational Enhancements: The substitute part extends the operating temperature range to -40°C ~ 85°C (versus -40°C ~ 70°C) and provides IP40 ingress protection specification, offering improved environmental performance in demanding applications.

Termination Considerations: The 0033.3522 offers dual termination options (Solder and Quick Connect - 0.110" / 2.8mm) compared to the solder lug-only configuration of the original part, providing installation flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SCHURTER 0033.3522 directly replace the 0033.6003 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 0033.3522 provides direct electrical and mechanical substitution. Both components share identical current ratings (10A AC), voltage ratings (250V AC), circuit configurations, position counts (6), and panel cutout dimensions (30.00mm circular). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between these two selector switches?

A: The primary differences are: (1) Product status—0033.3522 is active production while 0033.6003 is obsolete; (2) Depth behind flange—0033.3522 measures 21.50mm versus 31.00mm for the original; (3) Operating temperature range—0033.3522 extends to 85°C versus 70°C; (4) Termination options—0033.3522 offers solder and quick connect terminals versus solder lug only; (5) Ingress protection—0033.3522 specifies IP40 rating; (6) Certifications—0033.3522 includes VDE approval in addition to CSA and UR.

Q: Are there any installation considerations when switching from 0033.6003 to 0033.3522?

A: The reduced depth behind flange (21.50mm versus 31.00mm) on the 0033.3522 may require verification of available panel depth. The dual termination options on the substitute part provide flexibility; however, if solder lug termination is required, this option remains available. Panel cutout dimensions are identical, requiring no mechanical modification.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory and compliance standards?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and hold CSA and UR certifications. The 0033.3522 additionally carries VDE certification, providing enhanced compliance for European applications. Both parts are classified as REACH Unaffected with EAR99 ECCN designation.

Q: What is the mechanical life specification for the substitute part?

A: The SCHURTER 0033.3522 maintains the same mechanical life rating of 300 cycles as the original 0033.6003, ensuring equivalent durability and operational longevity.

Q: Is the 0033.3522 available in the same packaging as the 0033.6003?

A: The 0033.3522 is supplied in bulk packaging. Inventory availability is confirmed at 826 pieces in new original stock condition.
