LSYCC5A Snap Action Switch SPDT 10A 120V Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LSYCC5A is a snap action switch manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, classified as an SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switch with chassis mount configuration. This component operates at 10A AC (120V) and 800mA DC (115V) with a round pin plunger actuator and status indicator feature. The LSYCC5A is currently listed as obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for maintenance, repair, and new design implementations where this switch specification is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LSYCC5A is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Circuit configuration (SPDT DB/DM), switch function (On-Mom), current rating (10A AC / 800mA DC), and voltage ratings (120V AC / 115V DC) must be identical.

Mechanical Parameters: Actuator type (round pin plunger), mounting type (chassis mount), termination style (plug in), operating force (1814gf), pretravel (0.071"), differential travel (0.016"), and overtravel (0.190") must match exactly.

Environmental Parameters: Operating temperature range (-12°C to 93°C) and features (status indicator) must be maintained.

Compliance Parameters: RoHS compliance and MSL rating (1 - Unlimited) must be equivalent or superior.

The LSC5A meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute for the LSYCC5A.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LSC5A is the direct equivalent substitute for the LSYCC5A. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters are identical. The primary distinction is product status: the LSYCC5A is obsolete while the LSC5A maintains active status with Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions.

Both parts are RoHS compliant and carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating equivalent environmental handling and storage requirements. The LSC5A is currently available with 1128 pieces in stock, providing supply continuity for applications requiring SPDT snap action switches with 10A AC (120V) and 800mA DC (115V) ratings in chassis mount configuration with plug-in termination.

For new designs, maintenance applications, or system replacements where the LSYCC5A specification is required, the LSC5A provides full functional and mechanical compatibility without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LSC5A directly replace the LSYCC5A in existing applications?

A: Yes. The LSC5A is electrically and mechanically identical to the LSYCC5A across all specified parameters including circuit configuration, current and voltage ratings, actuator type, mounting configuration, and mechanical travel specifications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The LSYCC5A is classified as obsolete product status. The LSC5A is the active equivalent from the same manufacturer (Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions) within the HDLS series, ensuring continued availability and supply chain continuity.

Q: Are there packaging differences between LSYCC5A and LSC5A?

A: The LSYCC5A is supplied with standard packaging, while the LSC5A is supplied in bulk packaging. Both parts are identical in form, fit, and function. Packaging selection depends on order quantity and inventory management requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the LSYCC5A and LSC5A are RoHS compliant and carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating equivalent environmental compliance and handling requirements.

Q: What are the critical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Critical parameters include SPDT circuit configuration, On-Mom switch function, 10A AC (120V) and 800mA DC (115V) ratings, round pin plunger actuator, chassis mount configuration, plug-in termination, 1814gf operating force, and -12°C to 93°C operating temperature range.

Q: Is the status indicator feature present on both parts?

A: Yes. Both the LSYCC5A and LSC5A include status indicator functionality as a standard feature.
