Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LSXM4N-1A is a direct functional and mechanical equivalent to the obsolete LSXM4N3-1A. Both components share identical electrical ratings, mechanical specifications, and environmental operating parameters. The LSXM4N-1A maintains Active product status with Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support.

Both parts carry RoHS Compliant certification and identical moisture sensitivity classification (MSL 1 - Unlimited), confirming equivalent environmental and regulatory compliance profiles. The LSXM4N-1A is suitable for direct substitution in applications currently utilizing the LSXM4N3-1A without modification to circuit design, mounting configuration, or electrical specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LSXM4N-1A replace LSXM4N3-1A in existing designs?

A: Yes. The LSXM4N-1A is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the LSXM4N3-1A. All electrical ratings (10A AC at 120V, 800mA DC at 115V), circuit configuration (DPDT Mom-Off-Mom), mechanical specifications (side rotary roller actuator, 46gfm operating force, identical travel angles), and environmental parameters (-1°C to 121°C) are identical. Direct substitution is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between LSXM4N3-1A and LSXM4N-1A?

A: The primary difference is product status. LSXM4N3-1A is Obsolete, while LSXM4N-1A is Active. All functional, electrical, and mechanical parameters are identical. The packaging differs (LSXM4N3-1A uses standard packaging; LSXM4N-1A uses Bulk packaging), but this does not affect component performance or compatibility.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with packaging differences?

A: No. Packaging format (standard versus Bulk) does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or functional operation. Component selection should be based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence, which is complete between these two parts.

Q: Why is LSXM4N3-1A marked as Obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by the manufacturer. The LSXM4N-1A, as an Active equivalent within the same LSX series, provides continued access to equivalent switching functionality and specifications.

Q: What parameters must match for substitution?

A: Critical matching parameters include circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (Mom-Off-Mom), current and voltage ratings (10A AC/120V, 800mA DC/115V), actuator type (side rotary roller), mounting type (chassis mount), termination style (screw terminal), operating force (46gfm), travel specifications (18° pretravel, 10° differential, 57° overtravel), and operating temperature range (-1°C to 121°C).
