AM1504K Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AM1504K is a snap action switch manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works, configured as a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) device with On-Momentary switch function. This chassis mount component is rated for 15A at 125V AC operation with lever and roller actuator options and solder lug termination. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute components essential for system maintenance, repair, and continued operation in legacy applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AM1504K is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Circuit configuration must remain SPDT to maintain identical switching topology. Switch function must be On-Momentary to preserve operational behavior. Current and voltage ratings must meet or exceed the original specification: minimum 15A at 125V AC. Actuator type (lever with roller) and mounting configuration (chassis mount) must be identical to ensure mechanical compatibility with existing installations. Termination style must be solder lug for direct connection compatibility.

The BZ-2RW822 manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions satisfies all substitution criteria. This component maintains SPDT circuit configuration, On-Momentary function, 15A AC current rating at 125V, lever and roller actuator design, chassis mount configuration, and solder lug termination.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BZ-2RW822 is the direct substitute for the obsolete AM1504K. Both components share identical electrical specifications (SPDT, On-Momentary, 15A at 125V AC), mechanical configuration (lever and roller actuator, chassis mount, solder lug termination), and moisture sensitivity classification.

The BZ-2RW822 offers the advantage of active product status with current manufacturing support and availability. The component carries RoHS compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, meeting modern regulatory requirements for new installations and system upgrades. The Honeywell component is suitable for direct replacement in existing AM1504K applications without circuit modification or mechanical redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BZ-2RW822 directly replace the AM1504K in existing circuits?

A: Yes. Both components are SPDT switches with On-Momentary function, identical current and voltage ratings (15A at 125V AC), matching actuator types (lever and roller), and identical termination style (solder lug). Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-Momentary), current rating (15A AC minimum), voltage rating (125V AC minimum), actuator type (lever and roller), mounting type (chassis mount), and termination style (solder lug) must all match or exceed the original specification.

Q: Does the BZ-2RW822 meet current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. The BZ-2RW822 is RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in most jurisdictions.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the AM1504K and BZ-2RW822?

A: The AM1504K packaging is not specified in available documentation. The BZ-2RW822 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your specific application before procurement.

Q: What is the operating temperature range of the substitute component?

A: The BZ-2RW822 operates across -55°C to 85°C, providing thermal performance suitable for industrial and commercial applications.
