Omron A165-CAM Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The Omron A165-CAM is a configurable switch body component in the A16 series, designed as a square momentary pushbutton for industrial control applications. This part functions as the base assembly requiring separate contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses for complete operation. The A165-CAM is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent components to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for replacement and new installations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution for the A165-CAM is determined by compatibility within the Omron A16/M16 series ecosystem. The substitute parts listed are illumination source components (LED panel indicators) that function as compatible accessories for the A165-CAM base assembly. These substitutes maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility through:
- Shared series designation (M16 series, compatible with A16)
- Matching panel cutout dimensions or compatible mounting interfaces
- Equivalent ingress protection rating (IP66)
- RoHS compliance and identical moisture sensitivity level
- Oil-resistant construction for industrial environments
The substitutes differ in voltage rating (110V or 220V AC/DC) and panel cutout geometry, allowing selection based on specific installation requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Selection among the substitute parts M165-AG-T1, M165-AG-T1-S, and M165-AG-T2-S is determined by system voltage requirements and panel mounting geometry:
-
M165-AG-T1-S is recommended for 110V AC/DC systems with 16mm round panel cutouts, maintaining direct dimensional compatibility with the A165-CAM mounting interface. This part carries active product status and RoHS compliance certification.
-
M165-AG-T1 serves 110V AC/DC applications requiring square panel cutouts (18mm x 18mm) and maintains active product status.
-
M165-AG-T2-S is specified for 220V AC/DC systems with square panel cutout geometry (18mm x 18mm) and active product status.
All substitute parts maintain IP66 ingress protection and oil-resistant construction, ensuring functional equivalence in industrial control environments. Selection should be based on the control system voltage specification and available panel cutout dimensions in the installation location.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can M165-AG-T1-S directly replace A165-CAM in existing installations?
A: M165-AG-T1-S is mechanically compatible with A165-CAM installations featuring 16mm round panel cutouts and 110V AC/DC power supplies. The part functions as an illumination source accessory for the A16/M16 series assembly. Verify system voltage and panel mounting geometry before substitution.
Q: What is the difference between M165-AG-T1 and M165-AG-T1-S?
A: Both parts operate at 110V AC/DC with green diffused lenses and IP66 protection. M165-AG-T1 features a square panel cutout (18mm x 18mm), while M165-AG-T1-S features a round panel cutout (16mm). M165-AG-T1-S carries RoHS compliance and MSL 1 certification; M165-AG-T1 specifications do not include these certifications in the provided data.
Q: When should M165-AG-T2-S be selected instead of M165-AG-T1-S?
A: M165-AG-T2-S is specified for control systems operating at 220V AC/DC. Both parts share identical lens characteristics (green, diffused, 15.10mm) and IP66 protection. Selection is determined solely by system voltage requirement.
Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?
A: M165-AG-T1-S is certified RoHS compliant with MSL 1 rating. RoHS compliance information is not provided for M165-AG-T1 and M165-AG-T2-S in the available data.
Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?
A: M165-AG-T1-S is available in bulk packaging. M165-AG-T1 and M165-AG-T2-S packaging specifications are not provided in the available data.
