Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are selected strictly according to the following key parameters:

• Circuit type (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-Mom)
• Current rating (AC and DC where specified)
• Voltage rating (AC)
• Actuator type (Lever, Roller)
• Mounting type (Chassis Mount)
• Termination style (Quick Connect, size specified)
• Operating force
• Operating position and travel characteristics
• Operating temperature range
• Electrical life
• RoHS compliancy
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL)
• ECCN, HTSUS codes

Only substitute models matching these parameters are considered compatible within this category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The E63-00K is obsolete, while the substitute part DB3C-B1RC is active and RoHS3 compliant, with identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications and a matching SPDT circuit. Selection should be governed by electrical ratings, compliance, and inventory status as provided. Moisture sensitivity (MSL 1) for both parts indicates unlimited shelf life under recommended conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What criteria were used for substitution?
A: Substitution is based strictly on circuit type, switch function, current and voltage ratings, actuator and mounting style, termination dimensions, and environmental ratings.

Q: Is the substitute DB3C-B1RC compatible in terms of electrical and regulatory compliance?
A: Both E63-00K and DB3C-B1RC are ROHS3 compliant with matched ECCN and HTSUS codes.

Q: Are there physical or mounting differences to consider?
A: Both switches use lever roller actuators and chassis mounting. Termination sizes differ: 0.093" (2.3mm) vs 0.110" (2.8mm). Suitability depends on the receptacle or connector used in the assembly.

Q: How does electrical life compare?
A: DB3C-B1RC provides a higher number of rated electrical cycles compared to E63-00K, as per provided parameters.

Q: Are there temperature range differences?
A: The substitute's range is broader (-40°C ~ 120°C vs -40°C ~ 85°C). The suitability should be confirmed against application requirements using the specified parameters.

Q: What should be considered regarding package and inventory?
A: Both parts are available in bulk packaging and are currently listed with new original inventory. Compatibility is determined by the specified packaging and inventory status.
