Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCHURTER 3-136-756 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (SPDT), current rating (5A AC), and voltage rating (125V AC) must remain identical to ensure functional compatibility within the host circuit.

Mechanical Parameters: Mounting type (Panel Mount, Front), switch type (Anti-Vandal), actuator type (Round, Button), and panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 22.00mm Dia) must match to ensure physical installation compatibility.

Termination Parameters: Termination style (Quick Connect - 0.110" / 2.8mm) must be identical for connector compatibility.

Environmental & Compliance Parameters: Operating temperature range (-25°C to 85°C), ingress protection rating (IP40), and RoHS3 compliance status must be maintained.

The substitute part identified below meets all these criteria while offering active product status and current manufacturing availability.
