Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LB15SKW01-6B-JB is the active equivalent for the obsolete LB15SKW01-28-JB. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring direct functional compatibility in panel mount applications requiring SPDT momentary pushbutton switches rated for 3A/125V AC operation.

The primary consideration for selection is illumination voltage compatibility. The substitute part transitions from incandescent illumination (28 VAC/DC) to LED illumination (3.3 VDC), requiring verification that the circuit design can accommodate the lower LED voltage requirement. Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements. The active product status of LB15SKW01-6B-JB ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LB15SKW01-6B-JB directly replace LB15SKW01-28-JB in existing designs?

A: Mechanical and electrical compatibility is confirmed across all switch parameters. The illumination voltage differs (28 VAC/DC versus 3.3 VDC), requiring circuit design verification to ensure the power supply can deliver the lower LED voltage.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The illumination technology and corresponding voltage requirement. LB15SKW01-28-JB uses incandescent illumination at 28 VAC/DC, while LB15SKW01-6B-JB uses LED illumination at 3.3 VDC. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging?

A: LB15SKW01-28-JB is supplied in standard packaging with 1108 pieces in stock. LB15SKW01-6B-JB is supplied in bulk packaging with 1073 pieces in stock. Both use identical termination styles and panel cutout dimensions.

Q: Do both parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both LB15SKW01-28-JB and LB15SKW01-6B-JB are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: What is the mechanical compatibility between these parts?

A: Both parts feature identical panel mount snap-in configuration with 16.20mm x 16.20mm square cutout dimensions and 0.110" (2.8mm) quick connect termination. They are mechanically interchangeable.
