Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2012SS2G13-BC is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Current and voltage ratings (0.4VA at 28V AC/DC)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Actuator specifications (Standard Round with Cap, 14.60mm length)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.50mm Dia)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C)

The substitute part MN12SS2G13-BC from NKK Switches maintains compatibility across these core electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring SPDT toggle switch operation at the specified voltage and current levels.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MN12SS2G13-BC is the designated substitute for the obsolete M2012SS2G13-BC. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and share identical electrical specifications (SPDT, 0.4VA, 28V) and mechanical form factors (through-hole mounting, 14.60mm actuator, 6.50mm panel cutout).

The primary distinction is product status: the M2012SS2G13-BC is obsolete, while the MN12SS2G13-BC is active and currently in production. For new designs or component replenishment, the MN12SS2G13-BC should be selected. Both parts comply with ROHS3 and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MN12SS2G13-BC directly replace M2012SS2G13-BC in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are SPDT toggle switches with identical electrical ratings (0.4VA at 28V), mechanical mounting (through-hole), and actuator specifications (14.60mm standard round with cap). Panel cutout dimensions are identical at 6.50mm circular. Direct substitution is supported.

Q: What is the difference between M2012SS2G13-BC and MN12SS2G13-BC?

A: The M2012SS2G13-BC is obsolete; the MN12SS2G13-BC is active production. All electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent. The MN12SS2G13-BC should be used for new procurement.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The M2012SS2G13-BC is specified with standard packaging; the MN12SS2G13-BC is supplied in bulk packaging. Both use PC pin termination suitable for through-hole PCB assembly.
