Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SCHURTER 3-136-760 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Circuit configuration: SPDT
• Current rating: 5A (AC)
• Voltage rating: 125V AC
• Switch function: On-Momentary operation

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Mounting configuration: Panel Mount, Front
• Switch type: Anti-Vandal construction
• Actuator type: Round, Button
• Termination style: Quick Connect - 0.110" (2.8mm)
• Panel cutout dimensions: Circular - 22.00mm Dia

Compliance & Environmental Criteria:

• RoHS3 compliance
• Operating temperature range: -25°C ~ 85°C
• Ingress protection: IP40 minimum

Substitute parts must satisfy all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters to ensure direct functional and physical interchangeability without circuit modification or mechanical rework.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: SCHURTER 3-145-684

The SCHURTER 3-145-684 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 3-136-760. Both components share identical electrical ratings (5A, 125V AC, SPDT), mechanical configuration (panel mount, anti-vandal, round button actuator), and termination style (Quick Connect 0.110"). The 3-145-684 carries active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance Considerations:

The main part 3-136-760 is certified ROHS3 compliant. The substitute part 3-145-684 does not have RoHS status explicitly specified in available documentation. Prior to final design release, confirm RoHS3 compliance status of the 3-145-684 with SCHURTER Inc. to ensure regulatory alignment with target markets.

Inventory & Availability:

The 3-136-760 maintains 688 units in current stock as new original inventory. The 3-145-684 substitute has 925 units available. For new designs and production planning, transition to the 3-145-684 to leverage active product support and eliminate obsolescence risk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SCHURTER 3-145-684 directly replace the 3-136-760 without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts are SPDT switches with identical electrical ratings (5A, 125V AC), mounting configuration (panel mount, front), and termination style (Quick Connect 0.110"). Direct substitution is supported without circuit redesign.

Q: Are the panel cutout dimensions identical between the two parts?

A: The main part 3-136-760 specifies a circular 22.00mm diameter panel cutout. The substitute part 3-145-684 does not have panel cutout dimensions explicitly provided in available data. Verify mechanical dimensions with SCHURTER Inc. prior to panel design finalization.

Q: What is the difference in product status between these parts?

A: The 3-136-760 is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited future availability. The 3-145-684 is active, ensuring ongoing manufacturing, supply chain support, and technical documentation updates.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: The 3-136-760 is confirmed ROHS3 compliant. The 3-145-684 RoHS status is not specified in current documentation. Contact SCHURTER Inc. to confirm ROHS3 certification for the substitute part if regulatory compliance is required for your application.

Q: What is the mechanical life difference between these switches?

A: The 3-136-760 specifies 1,500,000 mechanical cycles and 200,000 electrical cycles. The 3-145-684 does not have mechanical or electrical life ratings provided in available data. Request detailed specifications from SCHURTER Inc. if cycle life is a critical design parameter.

Q: Can I use the 3-145-684 in existing equipment designed for the 3-136-760?

A: Yes, provided the panel cutout diameter and mounting depth are compatible. Verify mechanical dimensions and mounting clearances with SCHURTER Inc. before field retrofit applications.
