Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the ED S AC 0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration: SPST-NO
• Switch function: Off-Mom (momentary operation)
• Contact rating: 0.1A @ 100VAC/DC
• Actuator type: Snap Dome
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Actuator height: 1.20mm
• Actuator orientation: Top Actuated
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Operating force: 240gf
• Operating temperature range: -25°C ~ 70°C
• Switch travel: 0.30mm
• Mechanical life: 1,000,000 Cycles

The substitute part EDSAC0LFS maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing in product status (Active vs. Obsolete), packaging format (Tray vs. standard), and regulatory compliance status (RoHS3 Compliant vs. RoHS non-compliant).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EDSAC0LFS is a direct functional equivalent to the ED S AC 0. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin and functional compatibility in circuit applications.

The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the ED S AC 0 is obsolete, while the EDSAC0LFS is actively manufactured. For new designs or ongoing production requiring this switch type, the EDSAC0LFS is the appropriate selection.

The EDSAC0LFS carries RoHS3 compliance, whereas the ED S AC 0 is RoHS non-compliant. This compliance difference is relevant for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EDSAC0LFS directly replace ED S AC 0 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The EDSAC0LFS is functionally and mechanically equivalent. All electrical parameters, actuator specifications, mounting characteristics, and operating ranges are identical. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the two parts?

A: The ED S AC 0 is obsolete; the EDSAC0LFS is actively produced. The EDSAC0LFS is RoHS3 compliant, while the ED S AC 0 is not. Packaging differs (Tray vs. standard). All functional specifications are identical.

Q: Are there packaging considerations when switching to EDSAC0LFS?

A: The EDSAC0LFS is supplied in Tray packaging. If your procurement or assembly process requires different packaging formats, verify compatibility with your supply chain requirements.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect electrical performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance relates to material composition and environmental regulations, not electrical or mechanical performance. Both parts operate identically within their specified parameters.

Q: What is the mechanical life expectancy?

A: Both the ED S AC 0 and EDSAC0LFS are rated for 1,000,000 mechanical cycles, indicating equivalent durability and reliability in momentary switching applications.
