Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference for 5636MAB Toggle Switch

Part Overview

The APEM Inc. 5636MAB is a toggle switch in the category of panel mount, SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw), On-On function switches. It features a 6A (AC), 4A (DC) current rating, 125V AC, and 30V DC voltage rating, a standard round actuator (17.50mm length), solder lug termination, and epoxy sealed terminals. The part maintains an active status and is compliant with ROHS3 and REACH. Sourcing alternative or equivalent toggle switches is necessary in scenarios requiring secondary sourcing for supply chain assurance, compatibility across platforms, or when inventory of the primary part is exhausted, while maintaining identical functional and safety specifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute toggle switches (100SP1T8B13M1QEH, 7101T1CWZQE, 7101TZQE, and MTG106D) are classified as active status and utilize identical mounting methods, circuit type, switch function, and feature solder lug termination style, with comparable mechanical and electrical parameters. RoHS, REACH, and MSL compliance are indicated per device. For applications with explicit RoHS requirements, 5636MAB, 100SP1T8B13M1QEH, 7101T1CWZQE, and 7101TZQE are listed as ROHS3 compliant; MTG106D is non-compliant. All entries report Moisture Sensitivity Level of 1 (Unlimited). The selection of substitutes is governed solely by the supplied compliance and product status parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the critical parameters to check when selecting a substitute for the APEM Inc. 5636MAB toggle switch?
A1: Key parameters include mounting type (Panel Mount), switch circuit (SPDT), switch function (On-On), current and voltage ratings, actuator type and size, termination style, panel cutout dimensions, bushing thread size, operating temperature range, and compliance status (RoHS, REACH, MSL).

Q2: Are all listed substitute toggle switches RoHS compliant?
A2: 5636MAB, 100SP1T8B13M1QEH, 7101T1CWZQE, and 7101TZQE are ROHS3 compliant. MTG106D is not RoHS compliant.

Q3: Are the substitute parts suitable for direct panel mounting using the same cutout dimensions?
A3: All substitutes are designed for panel mount and specify circular panel cutouts with diameters close to the original part. Bushing thread for all parts is 15/32-32.

Q4: Is inventory and packaging identical across alternatives?
A4: Inventory quantity and packaging type vary; available options include tray and bulk packaging as specified.

Q5: Do the substitute parts share equivalent actuator material and electrical life?
A5: Substitute parts use either brass (chrome plated), brass (nickel plated), or copper alloy actuators. Electrical life varies as listed in the parameter table.

Q6: Do all models use solder lug termination?
A6: All parts feature solder lug termination style as specified.
