The substitute part NGCMA10AX01A1B from Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions satisfies all mandatory electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The NGCMA10AX01A1B represents a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 91MCE16-P1T. Both components are manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions and maintain identical electrical ratings, circuit configurations, and mechanical specifications.

Product Status Consideration: The 91MCE16-P1T is classified as obsolete, while the NGCMA10AX01A1B maintains active product status. This distinction is significant for long-term supply chain planning and component availability.

Compliance Status: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance. The NGCMA10AX01A1B additionally carries REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, providing expanded regulatory documentation for international applications.

Operational Differences: Minor variations exist in release force (4.078gfm versus 2.534gfm) and operating temperature upper limit (85°C versus 75°C). These differences do not affect substitution eligibility for applications operating within the NGCMA10AX01A1B temperature range of -25°C to 75°C.

The NGCMA10AX01A1B is suitable for direct replacement in applications currently utilizing the 91MCE16-P1T.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the NGCMA10AX01A1B directly replace the 91MCE16-P1T in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical ratings (6A AC, 550mA DC, 120V AC, 125V DC), circuit configuration (DPST-NO/NC), actuator type (side rotary roller), mounting method (chassis mount), termination style (cable leads), and ingress protection (IP67). Mechanical and electrical lifecycle specifications are equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 91MCE16-P1T is obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The NGCMA10AX01A1B is active, ensuring ongoing production and supply chain availability. For new designs or long-term applications, the active part number is preferred.

Q: Are there temperature range considerations for substitution?

A: The 91MCE16-P1T operates from -25°C to 85°C, while the NGCMA10AX01A1B operates from -25°C to 75°C. Substitution is valid for applications operating within -25°C to 75°C. Applications requiring operation above 75°C require evaluation against the original 91MCE16-P1T specifications.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The 91MCE16-P1T is supplied with standard packaging, while the NGCMA10AX01A1B is supplied in bulk packaging. Both configurations contain identical functional components.

Q: Are regulatory certifications equivalent?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant. The NGCMA10AX01A1B provides additional REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, offering expanded regulatory documentation for international markets.

Q: What is the cable length specification?

A: The 91MCE16-P1T features a 1-meter cable length. The NGCMA10AX01A1B includes a stainless steel roller actuator. Both maintain cable lead termination for identical installation compatibility.
