ASE62G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ASE62G is a slide switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a 6PDT (six-pole double-throw) through-hole component. This switch is rated for 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC operation with a shorting contact timing configuration and on-on switch function. The part is currently active in production with 727 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide procurement flexibility, support supply chain continuity, and accommodate different packaging or compliance requirements while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ASE62G with equivalent parts is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part 3-1825010-8 is classified as a direct equivalent because it maintains identical specifications across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration: 6PDT
• Contact timing: Shorting (MBB)
• Switch function: On-On
• Current rating: 0.4VA (AC/DC)
• Voltage ratings: 20V AC and 20V DC
• Actuator type, length, and material: Standard, 2.79mm, Polyamide (PA46), Nylon 4/6
• Contact material and finish: Copper Alloy with Gold plating
• Mounting and termination: Through Hole with PC Pin
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 80°C
• Mechanical and electrical life: 15,000 cycles each
• Operating force: 950gf

The primary difference between the main part and the substitute is packaging format (bulk versus standard) and compliance certifications. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches within the ASE series and are classified as active products.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ASE62G and 3-1825010-8 are functionally equivalent slide switches suitable for identical circuit applications. Selection between these parts is based on the following criteria:

ASE62G is appropriate for applications where standard packaging is required and RoHS compliance status is not a constraint. This part maintains active product status with adequate inventory availability.

3-1825010-8 is appropriate for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH unaffected status. This substitute part offers higher inventory availability (4348 units) and is supplied in bulk packaging. The ROHS3 compliance designation indicates conformance to Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements, making this part suitable for regulated markets and applications with environmental compliance mandates.

Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches and carry identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection should be based on packaging requirements, compliance certifications needed for the end application, and inventory availability at the time of procurement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ASE62G be directly replaced with 3-1825010-8 in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters including circuit configuration, voltage and current ratings, actuator dimensions, contact materials, and operating characteristics. Direct substitution is supported without circuit modification.

Q: What is the difference between ASE62G and 3-1825010-8?

A: The primary differences are packaging format (standard versus bulk) and compliance certifications. The 3-1825010-8 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, while the ASE62G has vendor-undefined REACH status and not-applicable RoHS status. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: The 3-1825010-8 is certified ROHS3 compliant and is the appropriate selection for applications requiring RoHS compliance documentation. The ASE62G does not carry RoHS compliance certification.

Q: Are there any operating condition differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate identically across the specified temperature range (-40°C to 80°C), support the same current and voltage ratings (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC), and deliver identical mechanical performance with 15,000-cycle life ratings and 950gf operating force.

Q: What is the significance of bulk packaging for the 3-1825010-8?

A: Bulk packaging indicates the part is supplied in larger quantities without individual component packaging. This format is typically used for high-volume procurement and may offer cost advantages for large-scale manufacturing operations. The electrical and mechanical performance remains identical to standard-packaged versions.

Q: Can ASE62G be used in applications where REACH compliance is required?

A: The ASE62G has vendor-undefined REACH status. For applications with explicit REACH compliance requirements, the 3-1825010-8 with REACH unaffected status is the appropriate selection.

Q: Are both parts currently in active production?

A: Yes. Both ASE62G and 3-1825010-8 are classified as active products with current manufacturing status. Inventory availability differs, with 3-1825010-8 offering higher stock levels (4348 units versus 727 units).
