ASD32K04N Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ASD32K04N is a keylock switch manufactured by IDEC, featuring a 3-position, 4PST-NC configuration with a rated capacity of 10A at 110V AC and 8A at 24V DC. This panel-mount switch is designed for applications requiring secure key-operated control with momentary and maintained switching functions. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for system maintenance, repair, and component sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ASD32K04N is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer and Base Series: Parts must originate from IDEC and share the ASD32 base product number to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility with existing panel cutouts and mounting infrastructure.
• Circuit Configuration: The 4PST-NC configuration is mandatory for functional equivalence in applications requiring four independent switching poles with normally-closed contact logic.
• Electrical Ratings: Substitute parts must maintain minimum current ratings of 10A at 110V AC and 8A at 24V DC to ensure safe operation within the original application's electrical parameters.
• Mechanical Interface: Panel mount configuration with screw terminal termination and circular 30.50mm cutout dimensions ensures direct physical compatibility without panel modification.
• Compliance and Certification: RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating are required to meet modern regulatory and environmental standards.

The ASD32K04NU qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters, sharing the ASD32 base product number and maintaining ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 certification.

• Base Product Continuity: Both parts share the ASD32 base product number, confirming mechanical and electrical compatibility within the IDEC keylock switch family.
• Inventory Availability: The ASD32K04NU is currently available in higher quantity (990 Pcs) compared to remaining ASD32K04N stock (749 Pcs), supporting long-term supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASD32K04NU be used as a direct replacement for the ASD32K04N without panel modification?

A: Yes. Both parts share the ASD32 base product number and maintain identical panel mount specifications, including the circular 30.50mm cutout dimension and screw terminal configuration. No panel modification is required.

Q: Are the electrical ratings identical between the ASD32K04N and ASD32K04NU?

A: The provided specifications confirm that both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 certification. Detailed electrical ratings for the ASD32K04NU are not fully specified in the available data; however, the shared ASD32 base product number indicates functional equivalence within the IDEC product family.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these two parts?

A: The ASD32K04N packaging designation is not specified in the available data. The ASD32K04NU is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging differences do not affect functional compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: Why is the ASD32K04N listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer and reflects discontinuation of production. The ASD32K04NU represents the active continuation within the IDEC ASD32 keylock switch family.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 certification status, ensuring compatibility with current regulatory and environmental standards.
