Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the KB05KW01-6F-JB is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Compatibility: Voltage rating (3.3V) and current rating (30mA)
• Mechanical Compatibility: Panel cutout shape (round), cutout dimensions (0.48"/12.19mm), and lens size (11.60mm Dia)
• Visual Characteristics: Lamp color (green), lens color (white), and lens transparency (clear)
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating

The substitute part YB05KW01-6F-JB is from the same manufacturer (NKK Switches) and shares the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications, indicating functional equivalence within the NKK Switches indicator product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The YB05KW01-6F-JB serves as an active substitute for the obsolete KB05KW01-6F-JB. Both components share identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8541.41.0000) and moisture sensitivity ratings (MSL 1). The substitute part maintains current availability through NKK Switches distribution, addressing the obsolescence status of the original component. Selection of the YB05KW01-6F-JB is appropriate for applications requiring panel indicator functionality with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes YB05KW01-6F-JB a suitable substitute for KB05KW01-6F-JB?

A: Both parts are manufactured by NKK Switches and share identical regulatory compliance codes (ECCN and HTSUS). The substitute part is currently active in production, whereas the original is obsolete. Both maintain the same MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: Mechanical compatibility is determined by panel cutout dimensions and lens specifications. Verify that your panel assembly accommodates the round 0.48" (12.19mm) cutout and 11.60mm diameter lens before installation.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating for both parts?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates these components have unlimited shelf life and require no special moisture control during storage or handling, simplifying inventory management and logistics.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: The KB05KW01-6F-JB is specified as ROHS3 compliant. Verify RoHS compliance status for the YB05KW01-6F-JB with your supplier before final selection.
