Crouzet 83264043 SPDT Snap Action Switch Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Crouzet 83264043 is an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) snap action switch rated for 12A at 250V AC, designed for chassis mount applications with quick connect 0.187" termination. This switch is currently active in production with 757 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary when the primary part becomes unavailable, when alternative electrical ratings better suit application requirements, or when different mechanical specifications are required for specific installation environments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Crouzet 83264043 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: Must be SPDT
• Switch Function: Must be On-Momentary
• Voltage Rating: Must be 250V AC minimum
• Mounting Type: Must be Chassis Mount
• Current Rating: Must be equal to or greater than 12A
• Actuator Type: Lever configuration (straight or roller acceptable)
• Termination Style: Quick Connect 0.187" (4.7mm) or 0.250" (6.3mm) acceptable with mechanical compatibility verification
• RoHS Compliance: Must maintain RoHS Compliant status
• Operating Temperature: Must support -20°C minimum and 125°C maximum

The following Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions parts meet these substitution criteria:

• V15H22-CZ300A02-K: 22A rated, exceeds current requirement
• V15T16-CZ300A02-K: 16A rated, exceeds current requirement
• V15T16-EZ200A02-K: 16A rated, exceeds current requirement
• V15T16-EZ200A06-K: 16A rated with roller actuator; product status is Obsolete

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status)

V15T16-EZ200A02-K is the preferred substitute when termination compatibility with 0.187" (4.7mm) quick connect is required. This part maintains identical termination geometry to the Crouzet 83264043, exceeds the 12A current requirement at 16A, and is currently in active production status with RoHS compliance.

V15T16-CZ300A02-K is suitable when 0.250" (6.3mm) termination can be accommodated in the application. This part provides 16A current rating and is in active production with RoHS compliance.

V15H22-CZ300A02-K provides the highest current rating at 22A with 0.250" (6.3mm) termination. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications requiring maximum current margin or when higher electrical performance is beneficial. This part is in active production with RoHS compliance.

Secondary Substitute (Obsolete Product Status)

V15T16-EZ200A06-K features a roller actuator instead of straight lever and is designated as obsolete. This part should be selected only when roller actuator functionality is specifically required and when long-term availability concerns are acceptable. The obsolete status indicates this part is no longer in active production.

All substitute parts maintain RoHS compliance and support the required operating temperature range of -20°C to 125°C or higher.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V15H22-CZ300A02-K be used as a direct replacement for Crouzet 83264043?

A: V15H22-CZ300A02-K is electrically compatible as an SPDT 250V switch with 22A current rating, exceeding the 12A requirement. However, the termination style differs: V15H22-CZ300A02-K uses 0.250" (6.3mm) quick connect versus the original 0.187" (4.7mm). Mechanical compatibility with the connector interface must be verified before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between V15T16-EZ200A02-K and V15T16-CZ300A02-K?

A: Both parts are 16A rated SPDT switches in the V15 series. The primary differences are termination style (0.187" versus 0.250" quick connect) and operating force specifications (130gf versus 180gf). Electrical life also differs: V15T16-EZ200A02-K is rated for 50,000 cycles while V15T16-CZ300A02-K is rated for 50,000 cycles. Selection depends on termination compatibility and actuator force requirements.

Q: Why is V15T16-EZ200A06-K listed as obsolete?

A: V15T16-EZ200A06-K is designated as obsolete by the manufacturer, indicating it is no longer in active production. While 1224 units remain in current inventory, this part should not be selected for new designs or long-term applications due to unavailability for future replenishment.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

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 83264043.

Q: What mechanical life difference exists between the original and substitute parts?

A: The Crouzet 83264043 is rated for 1,000,000 mechanical cycles. All Honeywell V15 series substitutes are rated for 5,000,000 mechanical cycles, providing significantly extended operational life.

Q: Can termination connectors be adapted between 0.187" and 0.250" quick connect styles?

A: Termination style adaptation requires mechanical modification of the connector interface. Direct substitution without connector modification is not possible. Application-specific connector compatibility must be evaluated before part selection.
