Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SCHURTER 1241.8523 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Current rating (10A AC minimum)
• Voltage rating (250V AC minimum)
• Mounting interface (Panel Mount, Front with 22.10mm circular cutout)
• Actuator type (Round, Button, Flush)
• Illumination capability (LED, 24VDC)
• Ingress protection rating (IP40 minimum)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C to 85°C)
• Mechanical durability (1,500,000 cycles minimum)

The SCHURTER 3-145-880 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching electrical specifications (SPDT, 10A, 250V), identical mounting configuration, and active product status with current manufacturing availability.
