ASLD300-2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ASLD300-2 is a configurable switch operator from IDEC's TWTD series, designed as an illuminated selector switch body component. This maintained-type actuator requires separate contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses for complete assembly. The product is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives from IDEC's active product lines to maintain system compatibility and ensure continued availability for maintenance and replacement applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ASLD300-2 is based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Actuator Type: Selector configuration required
• Switch Type: Maintained operation mandatory
• Illumination: Illuminated functionality required
• Panel Cutout Dimensions: 30.5mm round cutout compatibility
• Manufacturer Compatibility: IDEC product line
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance maintained
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating preserved

The ASLD0306T8 meets all substitution criteria as an active product within IDEC's configurable switch component portfolio, maintaining identical mechanical and electrical interface requirements while offering current manufacturing support and availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ASLD0306T8 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete ASLD300-2. Both components maintain identical mechanical interfaces (30.5mm round panel cutout) and electrical specifications (maintained selector operation with illumination). The ASLD0306T8 carries active product status with current manufacturing support, ensuring supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings, confirming regulatory and environmental compatibility. The transition from TWTD series to TWND series represents an internal IDEC product line evolution while preserving all functional and interface requirements for direct substitution in existing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASLD0306T8 directly replace the ASLD300-2 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical panel cutout dimensions (30.5mm round), actuator type (selector), operation type (maintained), and illumination requirements. No mechanical or electrical modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What are the key compatibility criteria for this substitution?

A: The critical parameters are: selector actuator type, maintained operation, illuminated functionality, 30.5mm round panel cutout, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. The ASLD0306T8 meets all these requirements.

Q: Does the series change from TWTD to TWND affect compatibility?

A: No. The series designation reflects IDEC's internal product line organization. The functional and mechanical specifications remain identical, ensuring full compatibility with existing contact blocks, illumination sources, and lenses.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The ASLD300-2 packaging is unspecified in available documentation. The ASLD0306T8 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The ASLD0306T8 has 971 pieces in new original stock, providing immediate availability for replacement and new applications.
