Crouzet 83265048 SPDT Snap Action Switch Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Crouzet 83265048 is an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) snap action switch rated for 5A at 250V AC, designed for chassis mount applications with quick connect termination. This switch is currently active in production and widely available with 853 units in stock.

Substitute parts become necessary when the original component reaches end-of-life status, experiences supply constraints, or when design requirements permit operation at higher current ratings while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the same form factor and mounting standard.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Crouzet 83265048 is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: Must be SPDT to maintain electrical functionality
• Switch Function: Must be On-Momentary to preserve operational behavior
• Voltage Rating: Must be rated for 250V AC minimum
• Mounting Type: Must be Chassis Mount to ensure mechanical compatibility
• Termination Style: Must use Quick Connect - 0.187" (4.7mm) for direct connection compatibility
• Actuator Type: Must be Lever, Roller configuration
• Current Rating: May exceed 5A AC provided all other parameters are met

The Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions part number V15T16-EZ200A06-K meets all mandatory substitution criteria. This part maintains identical circuit configuration, switch function, voltage rating, mounting type, and termination style while providing a higher current rating of 16A AC.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Honeywell V15T16-EZ200A06-K is a direct functional substitute for the Crouzet 83265048 based on matching electrical specifications and mechanical form factor. Both parts are RoHS Compliant and meet the same regulatory requirements.

The Honeywell substitute provides enhanced performance characteristics: 16A current rating versus 5A, extended mechanical life of 5,000,000 cycles versus 1,000,000 cycles, and a wider operating temperature range extending to -25°C. These enhanced ratings do not create incompatibility; they represent superior capability within the same physical and electrical interface.

The Honeywell part carries an Obsolete product status, indicating it is no longer in active production. This status requires verification of long-term availability through the supplier before committing to high-volume designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Honeywell V15T16-EZ200A06-K directly replace the Crouzet 83265048 in existing applications?

A: Yes, provided the application current requirement does not exceed 5A AC. The substitute part maintains identical mounting, termination, circuit configuration, and voltage rating. The higher current rating of the substitute does not create incompatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the different product statuses (Active vs. Obsolete)?

A: The Crouzet 83265048 is in active production with confirmed inventory of 853 units. The Honeywell V15T16-EZ200A06-K is obsolete and no longer manufactured. For new designs, the active Crouzet part is preferred. The Honeywell substitute is applicable only when the Crouzet part becomes unavailable or when existing inventory of the Honeywell part is being utilized.

Q: Are there mechanical differences between these parts?

A: Both parts use identical Chassis Mount configuration with Quick Connect - 0.187" (4.7mm) termination. Physical mounting and connection are interchangeable. Operating force, release force, and travel distances differ between the two designs but do not affect mechanical compatibility in the mounting interface.

Q: What packaging considerations apply to these parts?

A: The Crouzet 83265048 is supplied in standard packaging. The Honeywell V15T16-EZ200A06-K is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Can applications designed for 5A operation safely use the 16A-rated Honeywell substitute?

A: Yes. The 16A rating of the substitute represents maximum current capacity. Applications operating at 5A or below are within the safe operating range of the substitute part.
