Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The E-Switch 500SSP1S2M6QEA qualifies as a functional equivalent based on the following critical parameters:

  • Circuit Configuration: Both parts are SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw)
  • Voltage Rating - AC: Both rated at 120V AC
  • Voltage Rating - DC: Both rated at 28V DC
  • Mounting Type: Both feature through-hole, right-angle configuration
  • Termination Style: Both use PC Pin termination
  • Actuator Length: Identical at 6.88mm
  • Switch Travel: Identical at 2.16mm
  • Compliance: Both ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected

The primary difference is the current rating: the substitute part is rated for 5A versus the main part's 6A rating. This represents a reduction in maximum current capacity and must be evaluated against application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts maintain Active product status with full regulatory compliance (ROHS3 and REACH unaffected). The 500SSP1S2M6QEA substitute is suitable for applications where the 5A current rating meets circuit requirements. The substitute offers an extended operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C versus -30°C to 65°C) and equivalent mechanical dimensions. Contact finish differs (gold versus silver), which may affect contact resistance characteristics in specific applications. Electrical life is reduced from 40,000 to 30,000 cycles on the substitute part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 500SSP1S2M6QEA replace the 1101M2S4AGE2 in all applications?

A: Substitution is valid only if the application current requirement does not exceed 5A. Both parts share identical voltage ratings, mounting configuration, and mechanical dimensions. Verify that the 30,000-cycle electrical life of the substitute meets application duty cycle requirements.

Q: What is the impact of different contact finishes (gold versus silver)?

A: Contact finish affects contact resistance and corrosion resistance. Gold provides superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance, while silver offers adequate performance in most industrial environments. Selection depends on application environment and signal integrity requirements.

Q: Are the actuator dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts feature 6.88mm actuator length and 2.16mm switch travel, ensuring mechanical compatibility in PCB layouts and enclosure designs.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, suitable for equivalent regulatory environments.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The substitute part operates from -30°C to 85°C, providing 20°C additional high-temperature capability compared to the main part's -30°C to 65°C range. This may be advantageous in thermally demanding applications.
