Engineering Selection Recommendations

The YB16CKW01-CB is an active product from NKK Switches that satisfies all mandatory electrical and mechanical requirements for substitution of the obsolete KB16CKW01-CC. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

Key considerations for selection:

Electrical Performance: The YB16CKW01-CB provides 3A current rating, exceeding the 1A requirement of the original part. Voltage ratings remain identical at 125V AC and 30V DC.

Mechanical Durability: The substitute part offers doubled mechanical life (200,000 cycles versus 100,000 cycles) and doubled electrical life (100,000 cycles versus 50,000 cycles), providing extended service intervals.

Physical Integration: The panel cutout diameter increases from 12.30mm to 16.00mm. This dimensional change requires panel modification or adapter consideration during installation.

Termination Interface: The substitute part offers dual termination options (Solder and Quick Connect 0.110"), providing greater installation flexibility compared to the solder lug-only termination of the original part.

Product Availability: Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can YB16CKW01-CB directly replace KB16CKW01-CC without modification?

A: Electrical and functional compatibility is confirmed. However, the panel cutout diameter differs (16.00mm versus 12.30mm), requiring panel modification or mechanical adapter for physical installation.

Q: Are the voltage and current ratings compatible?

A: Yes. The YB16CKW01-CB maintains 125V AC and 30V DC ratings identical to the original part and provides higher current capacity (3A versus 1A), ensuring safe operation in applications designed for the KB16CKW01-CC.

Q: What is the impact of different termination styles?

A: The KB16CKW01-CC uses solder lug termination exclusively. The YB16CKW01-CB offers both solder and quick connect (0.110") options, providing installation flexibility. Solder termination remains available for direct electrical compatibility.

Q: Does the substitute part maintain compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both the KB16CKW01-CC and YB16CKW01-CB are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, maintaining regulatory compliance for equivalent applications.

Q: What are the durability differences?

A: The YB16CKW01-CB provides enhanced mechanical life (200,000 cycles) and electrical life (100,000 cycles) compared to the original part (100,000 and 50,000 cycles respectively), extending component service life.

Q: Is the YB16CKW01-CB currently available?

A: Yes. The YB16CKW01-CB maintains active product status with NKK Switches, ensuring supply chain availability for new designs and replacement applications.
