Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the D6 C 60 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the D6 series. The following criteria determine valid equivalency:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Current rating: 100mA DC
• Voltage rating: 32V DC
• Actuator type: Square button
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Switch function: Off-Mom (Momentary)
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to 85°C
• Electrical life: 250,000 Cycles

The identified substitute parts D6C60 F1 LFS and D6C60 F2 LFS maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical characteristics. Both parts are active products within the same D6 series, sharing the base product number D6C60 with packaging and compliance variations. These parts are direct functional equivalents suitable for replacement in applications requiring the D6 C 60 specifications.

Parameter Comparison
