Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the D2MC-5E1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-Momentary)
• Current rating (5A AC)
• Voltage rating (125V AC)
• Mounting type (Chassis Mount)
• Termination style (Quick Connect - 0.205")
• Ingress protection (IP40)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C to 80°C)
• Mechanical and electrical life specifications
• Actuation force characteristics (operating force, release force, travel angles)

The D2MC-5E base part number represents the active equivalent series. Substitutes within this grouping maintain identical electrical and mechanical performance characteristics while differing only in product status and packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison
