Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PSE 1241.3253 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPST-NO)
• Current rating (100mA AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings (42V AC / 60V DC minimum)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount, Front)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular 22.10mm)
• Actuator type (Round, Button, Flush)
• Ingress protection rating (IP67)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C)
• Electrical life (20,000,000 cycles)
• Termination style (Connector)
• RoHS compliance (ROHS3)

The PSE 1241.3254 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute. Variations in illumination color (LED Red vs. LED Green) do not affect electrical substitutability but should be evaluated for application-specific requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PSE 1241.3254 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete PSE 1241.3253. Both components share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and environmental ratings. The PSE 1241.3254 carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The primary distinction is illumination color: the 1241.3253 features red LED indication, while the 1241.3254 provides green LED indication. Selection between these variants depends on application-specific signaling requirements and user interface design standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PSE 1241.3254 replace the PSE 1241.3253 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The PSE 1241.3254 is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both components share identical current ratings (100mA), voltage ratings (42V AC / 60V DC), circuit configuration (SPST-NO), panel cutout dimensions (22.10mm), and environmental specifications (IP67, -40°C to 85°C operating range).

Q: What is the difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is illumination color. The PSE 1241.3253 provides red LED indication, while the PSE 1241.3254 provides green LED indication. Both operate at 12VDC and share all other electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Q: Why is the PSE 1241.3253 listed as obsolete?
