Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M2012SS4W01-BB is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: SPDT topology must be maintained
• Current and Voltage Ratings: Minimum 6A at 125V AC and 4A at 30V DC
• Mounting Interface: Panel mount with M6 x 0.75 bushing thread and 6.50mm circular cutout
• Actuator Specifications: Standard round actuator with 14.60mm length
• Termination: Solder lug connection style
• Operating Temperature: -30°C to 85°C range
• Electrical Life: 25,000 cycles minimum

The substitute part MN12SS4W01-BB meets these core electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring SPDT toggle switch operation within the specified ratings and environmental conditions.
