Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M2012SS2G13-BE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Electrical ratings (0.4VA at 28V AC/DC)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Actuator specifications (Standard Round with Cap, 14.60mm length)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.50mm Dia)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C)
• Electrical life (50,000 Cycles minimum)

The substitute part MN12SS2G13-BE from NKK Switches meets these criteria and is classified as an active product, providing continuity for applications requiring M2012SS2G13-BE functionality.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MN12SS2G13-BE is the direct functional equivalent for M2012SS2G13-BE applications. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status: M2012SS2G13-BE is obsolete while MN12SS2G13-BE is active, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. Selection of MN12SS2G13-BE for new designs or replacement applications eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full functional compatibility.
