Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2012SS2G30 is determined by strict alignment with the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (On-On)
• Electrical ratings (0.4VA at 28V AC/DC)
• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.50mm Dia)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C ~ 85°C)
• Regulatory compliance (ROHS3)

The substitute part MN12SS2G30 from NKK Switches meets these core substitution criteria, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring equivalent electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MN12SS2G30 is designated as the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete M2012SS2G30. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory alignment. The substitute part carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Selection of MN12SS2G30 is supported by ROHS3 compliance certification for both the main and substitute components, meeting environmental regulatory requirements. The transition from the obsolete M2012SS2G30 to the active MN12SS2G30 is appropriate for new designs and legacy system replacements where component sourcing is constrained.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the M2012SS2G30 classified as obsolete? A: The M2012SS2G30 has reached end-of-life status with NKK Switches. The MN12SS2G30 represents the active replacement offering from the manufacturer.

Q: What are the critical parameters for substitution compatibility? A: Substitution compatibility is determined by matching circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-On), electrical ratings (0.4VA at 28V AC/DC), mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle), termination style (PC Pin), and panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.50mm Dia).

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes, both the M2012SS2G30 and MN12SS2G30 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting environmental regulatory standards.

Q: What is the packaging difference between the main part and substitute? A: The M2012SS2G30 is supplied in standard packaging, while the MN12SS2G30 is available in bulk packaging.

Q: Can the MN12SS2G30 be used in existing applications designed for the M2012SS2G30? A: Direct substitution is supported based on manufacturer designation and alignment of core electrical and mechanical parameters. Verification of specific application requirements is the responsibility of the design engineer.
