Omron D2MV-01-1C3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Omron D2MV-01-1C3 is a snap-action switch with SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) configuration, rated for 0.1A at 125V AC and 30V DC. This component features a round pin plunger actuator and chassis mount termination with solder and quick connect options. The D2MV-01-1C3 is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where this series is no longer in production.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Omron VX-01-1A3 qualifies as a direct substitute for the D2MV-01-1C3 based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-Momentary), current rating (100mA AC/DC), and voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC).

Mechanical Compatibility: Both switches feature the same actuator type (round pin plunger), mounting configuration (chassis mount), and termination style (solder and quick connect 0.187" terminals).

Environmental Specifications: Operating temperature range (-25°C to 80°C), ingress protection rating (IP40), and lifecycle ratings (1,000,000 electrical cycles / 10,000,000 mechanical cycles) are identical across both parts.

Physical Characteristics: Operating position (0.579"), pretravel (0.047"), and overall dimensional envelope remain consistent, ensuring direct mechanical interchange in existing applications.

The primary distinction is product status: the D2MV-01-1C3 is obsolete, while the VX-01-1A3 is active production, with improved compliance certifications (ROHS3 vs. RoHS, plus REACH Unaffected status).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The VX-01-1A3 is the direct replacement for the obsolete D2MV-01-1C3. Selection of the VX-01-1A3 is supported by:

Product Lifecycle: The VX-01-1A3 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete D2MV-01-1C3.

Regulatory Compliance: The VX-01-1A3 carries ROHS3 certification and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. The D2MV-01-1C3 holds only RoHS Compliant status.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters (voltage, current, circuit configuration) and mechanical specifications (actuator, mounting, termination) are identical, enabling direct substitution without circuit redesign.

Packaging Consideration: The VX-01-1A3 is supplied in tray packaging versus bulk for the D2MV-01-1C3. Procurement and handling procedures may require adjustment based on packaging format and inventory management requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the VX-01-1A3 be used as a direct replacement for the D2MV-01-1C3 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The VX-01-1A3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the D2MV-01-1C3. All critical parameters including voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), current rating (100mA), circuit configuration (SPDT), actuator type (round pin plunger), and mounting specifications are identical. Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are product status and compliance certifications. The D2MV-01-1C3 is obsolete, while the VX-01-1A3 is in active production. The VX-01-1A3 carries ROHS3 and REACH Unaffected certifications versus RoHS Compliant for the D2MV-01-1C3. Packaging differs: bulk for D2MV-01-1C3 and tray for VX-01-1A3.

Q: Are there any operational differences in switch performance between these parts?

A: Operating characteristics are equivalent. Both parts deliver 1,000,000 electrical cycles and 10,000,000 mechanical cycles. Operating force (50gf), operating position (0.579"), pretravel (0.047"), and temperature range (-25°C to 80°C) are identical. Minor variations exist in release force and differential travel, which do not affect functional compatibility in standard applications.

Q: What packaging format should be specified for procurement?

A: The VX-01-1A3 is supplied in tray packaging. If bulk packaging is required for specific assembly processes, consult with the supplier regarding alternative packaging availability or consider the original D2MV-01-1C3 if bulk stock remains available, though this is not recommended due to obsolete status.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification considerations for design updates?

A: The VX-01-1A3 meets current regulatory standards with ROHS3 and REACH Unaffected certifications. If your application or market requires these certifications, the VX-01-1A3 is the appropriate selection. The obsolete D2MV-01-1C3 may not meet updated compliance requirements for new designs or market entry.
