Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Honeywell 1TL1-3 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 1TL213-3 based on identical electrical and mechanical parameters. Substitution compatibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (SPDT), current rating (15A AC), and voltage rating (125V AC) must match exactly.

Mechanical Parameters: Panel mount installation, actuator type (standard round), actuator length (17.27mm), panel cutout dimensions (12.40mm circular), bushing thread specification (15/32-32), and termination style (screw terminal) must be identical.

Environmental Parameters: Operating temperature range (-65°C to 71°C) and ingress protection rating (environment sealed) must be equivalent.

All parameters between the main part and substitute part are identical, confirming full interchangeability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Honeywell 1TL1-3 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete 1TL213-3. Selection of the 1TL1-3 is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The 1TL1-3 maintains active product status with current manufacturing support, whereas the 1TL213-3 is obsolete and subject to discontinuation.

Compliance: The 1TL1-3 carries ROHS3 compliance certification, representing current regulatory standards. Both parts maintain EAR99 export classification and identical HTSUS coding (8536.50.9065).

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: All electrical parameters (15A AC at 125V, SPDT circuit) and mechanical parameters (panel mount, 12.40mm cutout, 15/32-32 bushing thread, screw terminals) are identical between both parts.

Environmental Ratings: Both parts operate across the identical temperature range (-65°C to 71°C) with environment sealed ingress protection.

Inventory Availability: The 1TL1-3 is available in significantly higher quantities (20,099 pieces) compared to the 1TL213-3 (845 pieces), supporting long-term supply chain requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1TL1-3 be used as a direct replacement for the 1TL213-3 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 1TL1-3 is a direct equivalent with identical electrical ratings (15A AC, 125V), circuit configuration (SPDT), and mechanical specifications (panel mount, 12.40mm cutout, screw terminals). No circuit modifications or panel redesign are required.
