Omron D5C-1DA0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Omron D5C-1DA0 is a panel-mount limit switch rated for 0.2A at 24V DC with IP67 ingress protection. This component features a round pin plunger actuator and cable lead termination, designed for industrial automation applications requiring dust-tight and waterproof operation. The D5C-1DA0 is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally compatible alternatives essential for system maintenance and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The D5B-1513 is identified as a substitute for the D5C-1DA0 based on the following critical parameters:

Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting type: Both are panel-mount configurations
• Termination style: Both use cable leads
• Ingress protection: Both maintain IP67 rating (dust-tight, waterproof)
• Environmental sealing: Both suitable for industrial environments requiring moisture and dust protection
• Manufacturer: Both manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety, ensuring design consistency and quality standards

Parameter Variations: The D5B-1513 operates at different electrical ratings (30mA at 30V DC versus 200mA at 24V DC) and uses a spring wire actuator instead of a round pin plunger. These differences require circuit-level evaluation during substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D5B-1513 is an active product with current manufacturing support, addressing the obsolescence status of the D5C-1DA0. Both components meet RoHS compliance requirements and maintain equivalent mechanical life ratings of 10,000,000 cycles.

Selection of the D5B-1513 as a substitute requires verification that the application circuit accommodates the reduced current rating (30mA versus 200mA) and the different voltage specification (30V versus 24V). The spring wire actuator differs mechanically from the round pin plunger, necessitating mechanical integration assessment within the installation environment.

The D5B-1513 includes a 3-meter cable lead, which may require evaluation against the original installation requirements. Both components maintain IP67 ingress protection, supporting equivalent environmental sealing performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D5B-1513 directly replace the D5C-1DA0 in existing installations?

A: Direct replacement requires circuit-level compatibility verification. The D5B-1513 operates at 30mA and 30V DC, while the D5C-1DA0 is rated for 200mA at 24V DC. The application circuit must accommodate these electrical parameter differences. Mechanical mounting compatibility must also be confirmed due to the different actuator types.

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

A: The primary differences are actuator type (round pin plunger versus spring wire), current rating (200mA versus 30mA), voltage rating (24V versus 30V), and operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C versus -10°C to 70°C). Both maintain IP67 protection and panel-mount configuration with cable lead termination.

Q: Are both switches RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The D5C-1DA0 is RoHS Compliant, and the D5B-1513 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet current regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the significance of the D5B-1513 being an active product?

A: Active product status indicates current manufacturing and availability through Omron distribution channels. The D5C-1DA0 is obsolete, meaning it is no longer manufactured and availability is limited to existing inventory. The D5B-1513 provides long-term supply continuity for new designs and system replacements.

Q: Does the 3-meter cable length of the D5B-1513 affect substitution?

A: Cable length is a specified feature of the D5B-1513 and must be evaluated against installation requirements. If the original D5C-1DA0 installation requires different cable routing or length, the D5B-1513 cable specification must be accommodated in the mechanical design.
