Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Crouzet 83262023 are qualified based on the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• Circuit configuration: SPDT
• Switch function: On-Momentary
• Voltage rating: 250V AC
• Mounting type: Chassis Mount
• Termination style: Quick Connect (0.250" or 0.187")

Secondary Allowable Variations:

• Current rating: 16A to 22A (acceptable range for 20A base rating)
• Actuator type: Lever configurations (straight or roller)
• Operating temperature: -25°C to 150°C (encompasses or matches base range)
• Mechanical life: 1,000,000 cycles minimum

Manufacturer Compatibility: All substitute parts are manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, Series V15, and maintain RoHS compliance and EAR99 classification consistent with the main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

V15H22-CZ300A02-K (Honeywell): This substitute provides the highest current rating at 22A, exceeding the 20A requirement of the main part. It maintains 0.250" quick connect termination, matching the Crouzet 83262023 connector interface. Extended operating temperature range (-25°C to 150°C) and superior mechanical life (5,000,000 cycles) provide enhanced performance margins. Product status is active with full RoHS compliance. This part is suitable for direct replacement in applications where higher current capacity is acceptable.

V15T16-CZ300A02-K (Honeywell): This substitute operates at 16A, below the 20A rating of the main part, and is appropriate for applications with reduced current requirements. It retains 0.250" quick connect termination and maintains active product status with RoHS compliance. Mechanical life of 5,000,000 cycles exceeds the original specification. This part is suitable for replacement in current-limited circuit designs.

V15T16-EZ200A02-K (Honeywell): This substitute features 16A current rating with 0.187" quick connect termination, requiring connector interface verification before implementation. Active product status and RoHS compliance are maintained. Mechanical life of 5,000,000 cycles provides performance enhancement. This part is suitable for replacement in applications with compatible connector specifications and reduced current requirements.

V15T16-EZ200A06-K (Honeywell): This substitute is marked as obsolete and should not be selected for new designs or long-term production applications. Although it maintains RoHS compliance and 16A current rating, its discontinued status creates supply chain risk. The roller actuator type differs from the straight lever of the main part, introducing mechanical interface differences. This part is listed for reference only in legacy system maintenance scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V15H22-CZ300A02-K be used as a direct replacement for Crouzet 83262023?

A: Yes, with circuit verification. Both parts share identical SPDT circuit topology, 250V AC rating, on-momentary function, and 0.250" quick connect termination. The V15H22-CZ300A02-K operates at 22A versus 20A, which is acceptable for the same circuit. Verify that the application circuit can accommodate the higher current rating without adverse effects.

Q: What is the impact of using a 16A-rated substitute in a 20A circuit?

A: A 16A-rated substitute (V15T16-CZ300A02-K or V15T16-EZ200A02-K) is not suitable for circuits requiring the full 20A capacity. These parts are appropriate only for applications with actual current draw at or below 16A. Circuit analysis is required to confirm current requirements before substitution.

Q: Are there connector compatibility issues between 0.250" and 0.187" terminations?

A: Yes. The Crouzet 83262023 uses 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect terminals. Substitutes V15T16-EZ200A02-K and V15T16-EZ200A06-K use 0.187" (4.7mm) terminals. These are not mechanically compatible without connector adapter hardware. Verify existing connector specifications before selecting these alternatives.

Q: Why is V15T16-EZ200A06-K listed if it is obsolete?

A: The V15T16-EZ200A06-K is included for reference in legacy system documentation and maintenance scenarios. Its obsolete status means it is no longer in active production and should not be specified for new designs. Existing inventory may be available through secondary sources, but long-term supply cannot be assured.

Q: Do all substitute parts maintain RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (V15H22-CZ300A02-K, V15T16-CZ300A02-K, V15T16-EZ200A02-K, and V15T16-EZ200A06-K) are RoHS compliant, matching the compliance status of the Crouzet 83262023.

Q: What is the difference between straight lever and roller actuators?

A: The Crouzet 83262023 and most Honeywell substitutes use straight lever actuators. The V15T16-EZ200A06-K uses a roller actuator, which has a different mechanical engagement profile and operating position (0.812" versus 0.602"). This affects the physical mounting interface and may require mechanical redesign of the actuator mounting structure.
