AOLD-0600 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AOLD-0600 is a configurable switch operator from IDEC's TWTD series, designed as an illuminated maintained-type switch body component. This part is classified as obsolete and requires integration with contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses to form a complete switch assembly. Due to its obsolete status, identifying functionally equivalent active alternatives is essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the AOLD-0600 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Panel Cutout Dimensions: 30.5mm (Round) — mechanical compatibility requirement
• Illumination Type: Illuminated — functional requirement
• Switch Type: Maintained — operational characteristic
• Manufacturer Compatibility: IDEC — supply chain and integration consistency
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant — regulatory requirement
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) — environmental tolerance

The AOLD2300T8 from IDEC's TWND series meets these substitution criteria. While the TWND series represents an active product line compared to the obsolete TWTD series, both maintain identical panel cutout dimensions, illumination capability, maintained-type operation, and equivalent environmental ratings. The AOLD2300T8 is a pushbutton, round illuminated variant that preserves the core mechanical and electrical interface requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AOLD2300T8 is the designated substitute for the obsolete AOLD-0600 based on the following engineering criteria:

• Product Status Alignment: The AOLD2300T8 is an active product, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support, whereas the AOLD-0600 is obsolete.
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements.
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical 30.5mm round panel cutout dimensions ensure direct mechanical substitution without enclosure redesign.
• Functional Equivalence: Both parts are illuminated, maintained-type switch operators requiring the same accessory integration (contact blocks, illumination sources, lenses).
• Manufacturer Consistency: Both parts are IDEC products, maintaining supply chain coherence and technical support continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the AOLD2300T8 directly replace the AOLD-0600 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes, provided the panel cutout is 30.5mm round and the assembly requires an illuminated, maintained-type switch operator. Both parts share identical mechanical interface dimensions and functional requirements for contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses.

Q: What is the primary difference between the AOLD-0600 and AOLD2300T8?

A: The AOLD-0600 belongs to the obsolete TWTD series, while the AOLD2300T8 is part of the active TWND series. The AOLD2300T8 specifies a pushbutton, round actuator type. Both maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters for substitution purposes.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The AOLD-0600 packaging is not specified in the available data. The AOLD2300T8 is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement process.

Q: Do both parts require the same accessory components?

A: Yes. Both the AOLD-0600 and AOLD2300T8 require contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses for complete switch assembly functionality.

Q: Is the AOLD2300T8 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, the AOLD2300T8 is ROHS3 compliant with a moisture sensitivity level of 1 (unlimited), matching the compliance profile of the AOLD-0600.
