Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2015TJW01-FA-2A-C is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Circuit configuration (SPDT)
  • Current and voltage ratings (6A AC / 3A DC at 125V AC / 30V DC)
  • Mounting type (Panel Mount, Snap-In)
  • Actuator type and illumination specifications (Concave, LED Red, 2.8VDC)
  • Termination style (Solder Lug)
  • Panel cutout dimensions (15.90mm x 12.50mm)
  • Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C)
  • Regulatory compliance (CSA, UL, ROHS3)

The MN15TJW01-FA-2A-C meets these substitution criteria as an active product from the same manufacturer with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications.
