C&K D6 R 60 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C&K D6 R 60 is a pushbutton switch with SPST-NO (Single Pole Single Throw - Normally Open) circuit configuration, rated for 0.1A at 32V DC. This through-hole keyswitch features tactile feedback and a blue round button actuator, designed for applications requiring momentary contact switching. The D6 R 60 is classified as obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure design continuity, maintain supply chain reliability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this component.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the D6 R 60 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the C&K D6 series. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Current rating: 100mA (DC)
• Voltage rating: 32V DC
• Switch function: Off-Mom (momentary)
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination style: PC pin
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to 85°C
• Electrical life: 250,000 cycles
• Features: Tactile feedback

The D6 R 60 has two identified substitutes within the D6 series. Both maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. The primary distinction between substitute parts is the actuator color and packaging format, which do not affect electrical or functional performance when the application does not require specific color identification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

D6R60 F1 LFS is the direct manufacturer equivalent to the obsolete D6 R 60. This part maintains identical electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and actuator color (blue). The D6R60 F1 LFS carries active product status and meets ROHS3 compliance, providing long-term supply chain availability and regulatory alignment for new designs or production continuity.

D6R00 F2 LFS is a functionally equivalent substitute within the D6 series. All electrical parameters, mechanical dimensions, and performance characteristics are identical to the D6 R 60. The primary difference is the white actuator color instead of blue. This part is suitable for applications where actuator color does not serve a functional or identification purpose. The D6R00 F2 LFS also carries active product status and ROHS3 compliance.

Both substitute parts are available in tray packaging, which may differ from the original bulk packaging of the D6 R 60. Component selection should consider packaging requirements for procurement and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can D6R60 F1 LFS be used as a direct replacement for D6 R 60?

A: Yes. The D6R60 F1 LFS is the direct manufacturer equivalent. All electrical ratings, mechanical specifications, and functional characteristics are identical. The primary advantage is active product status, ensuring ongoing availability.

Q: What is the difference between D6R60 F1 LFS and D6R00 F2 LFS?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent with identical SPST-NO circuit configuration, 100mA/32V ratings, and 250,000-cycle electrical life. The difference is the actuator color: D6R60 F1 LFS has a blue button, while D6R00 F2 LFS has a white button. Selection depends on whether color identification is required for the application.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the substitute parts?

A: The D6 R 60 is RoHS Compliant, while both substitute parts (D6R60 F1 LFS and D6R00 F2 LFS) are ROHS3 Compliant. Both maintain REACH Unaffected status. ROHS3 compliance represents an updated regulatory standard and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Does packaging format affect component performance?

A: No. The D6 R 60 is supplied in bulk packaging, while D6R60 F1 LFS and D6R00 F2 LFS are supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format affects procurement and assembly logistics but does not impact electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional characteristics.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts operate within the -20°C to 85°C temperature range with identical electrical life specifications of 250,000 cycles.
