Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCHURTER 0033.6104 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Current rating (10A AC), voltage rating (250V AC), and circuit configuration (series, parallel connections) must remain identical
• Mechanical Interface: Panel cutout dimensions (30.00mm circular), mounting type (panel mount), and termination style (quick connect 0.110"/2.8mm) must be compatible
• Functional Requirements: Number of positions (6) and switch function (On-On-On-On-On-On) must match
• Compliance & Certification: RoHS3 compliance and regulatory approvals (CSA, UR) must be maintained

The SCHURTER 0033.3505 qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters. Both parts share identical electrical ratings, mechanical interfaces, and functional specifications. The 0033.3505 represents an active product from the SWZ series, providing continuity for applications currently using the obsolete 0033.6104.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SCHURTER 0033.3505 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 0033.6104 based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical & Functional Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical current (10A AC), voltage (250V AC), position count (6), and circuit configuration (series, parallel connections) specifications. Switching function and mechanical life ratings are equivalent.

Mechanical Compatibility: Panel cutout dimensions (30.00mm circular) and mounting interface are identical. The 0033.3505 features a reduced depth behind flange (21.50mm versus 31.00mm), which provides design flexibility for space-constrained applications without compromising functionality.

Termination Options: The 0033.3505 provides dual termination capability (solder and quick connect 0.110"/2.8mm), whereas the 0033.6104 offers quick connect only. This expanded termination flexibility supports diverse installation methodologies.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and carry CSA and UR approvals. The 0033.3505 additionally carries VDE certification, extending regulatory coverage. The 0033.3505 includes IP40 ingress protection rating, providing enhanced environmental protection.

Temperature Performance: The 0033.3505 extends the upper operating temperature limit to 85°C (versus 70°C for the 0033.6104), supporting applications requiring higher thermal tolerance.

Product Availability: The 0033.3505 is active production status with 1279 units in stock, ensuring supply continuity for new designs and replacement applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SCHURTER 0033.3505 directly replace the 0033.6104 in existing installations?

A: Yes. The 0033.3505 provides direct functional and mechanical replacement. Identical electrical ratings (10A AC, 250V), position count (6), circuit configuration (series, parallel), and panel cutout dimensions (30.00mm circular) ensure drop-in compatibility. The reduced depth behind flange (21.50mm) may require verification of available mounting space in the original enclosure.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are: (1) Product status—0033.6104 is obsolete while 0033.3505 is active production; (2) Termination options—0033.3505 offers both solder and quick connect versus quick connect only; (3) Operating temperature range—0033.3505 extends to 85°C versus 70°C; (4) Depth behind flange—0033.3505 is more compact at 21.50mm; (5) Ingress protection—0033.3505 includes IP40 rating; (6) Regulatory approvals—0033.3505 adds VDE certification.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the termination style difference?

A: No. The 0033.3505 maintains the quick connect 0.110" (2.8mm) termination standard used by the 0033.6104. The additional solder termination option on the 0033.3505 provides installation flexibility without affecting quick connect compatibility.

Q: Does the reduced depth of the 0033.3505 affect electrical performance?

A: No. The reduced depth behind flange (21.50mm versus 31.00mm) is a mechanical design improvement that does not alter electrical specifications, current rating, voltage rating, or switching characteristics. Verify available mounting depth in the application enclosure.

Q: What certifications apply to the 0033.3505?

A: The 0033.3505 carries CSA, UR, and VDE approvals and maintains ROHS3 compliance. Both the original 0033.6104 and substitute 0033.3505 meet CSA and UR requirements. The addition of VDE certification on the 0033.3505 extends regulatory coverage for European applications.

Q: Is the extended temperature range of the 0033.3505 relevant for my application?

A: The 0033.3505 operating range (-40°C to 85°C) exceeds the 0033.6104 specification (-40°C to 70°C). If your application operates within the original -40°C to 70°C range, both parts are equivalent. If higher temperature operation is required, the 0033.3505 provides additional thermal margin.
