Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the A01ESSP3 is based on strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Actuator Type: E-Stop, Round configuration
• Illumination Status: Non-Illuminated
• Switch Type: Maintained operation
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: 16mm (Round)
• Series Compatibility: A01 series with 1 or 2 pole configuration support
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part A01ESDSP3 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all these parameters, with the primary distinction being its active product status and updated series designation (A01ES-D).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The A01ESDSP3 is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete A01ESSP3. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including panel cutout dimensions, actuator configuration, and switch operation type. The A01ESDSP3 maintains full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements, ensuring regulatory alignment with current standards.

The primary advantage of selecting A01ESDSP3 is its active product status, which guarantees ongoing availability and supply chain support. The component is supplied in tray packaging and maintains compatibility with the A01 series contact block architecture, enabling seamless integration into existing designs without modification to mechanical interfaces or electrical connections.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can A01ESDSP3 directly replace A01ESSP3 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical specifications for actuator type, illumination status, switch type, panel cutout dimensions, and series compatibility. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. A01ESSP3 is obsolete, while A01ESDSP3 is active. The A01ESDSP3 also features an updated series designation (A01ES-D) and is supplied in tray packaging. All functional and electrical parameters remain equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1 - Unlimited). Regulatory compliance is equivalent.

Q: Do these components require contact blocks?

A: Yes. Both A01ESSP3 and A01ESDSP3 are configurable switch bodies that require contact block(s) for complete assembly and operation.

Q: What panel cutout dimensions are required for installation?

A: Both components require a 16mm round panel cutout for mounting.
