M2015TXG13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The M2015TXG13 is a rocker switch manufactured by NKK Switches, configured as a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) device with a rated capacity of 0.4VA at 28V (AC/DC). This through-hole mounted switch features an actuator arm with cap requirement and epoxy sealed terminals for enhanced durability. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations where this switch type is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2015TXG13 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Specifications: Circuit configuration (SPDT), current rating (0.4VA AC/DC), and voltage rating (28V AC/DC)
• Mechanical Specifications: Mounting type (through hole), termination style (PC pin), and actuator type (arm with cap)
• Environmental & Lifecycle: Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C), mechanical life (50,000 cycles), and electrical life (50,000 cycles)
• Regulatory Compliance: CSA and UL approvals, RoHS3 compliance

The substitute part MN15TXG13 is identified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent from NKK Switches. While detailed specifications for the substitute are limited in the provided data, the manufacturer designation confirms functional equivalence within the M-series rocker switch family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MN15TXG13 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete M2015TXG13. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and share identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (HTSUS 8536.50.9065), indicating functional and regulatory equivalence.

The primary advantage of selecting MN15TXG13 is its active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The substitute maintains compliance with the same regulatory framework as the original part.

When transitioning from M2015TXG13 to MN15TXG13, verify mechanical fit within the existing panel cutout and confirm compatibility with the specific actuator cap configuration required by your application, as these details are not fully specified in the available data.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the M2015TXG13 listed as obsolete? A: The M2015TXG13 has reached end-of-life status with NKK Switches. The manufacturer recommends MN15TXG13 as the active equivalent for new designs and ongoing applications.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitution compatibility? A: The critical electrical parameters are SPDT circuit configuration, 0.4VA current rating at 28V (AC/DC), and On-Mom switch function. Any substitute must maintain these specifications.

Q: Are there mechanical considerations when substituting MN15TXG13 for M2015TXG13? A: Both parts use through-hole mounting with PC pin termination. Verify that the panel cutout dimensions and actuator arm configuration are compatible with your existing mechanical design.

Q: Does MN15TXG13 maintain the same regulatory approvals? A: Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9065) classifications. Confirm that MN15TXG13 carries the required CSA and UL approvals for your specific application.

Q: What is the difference between the M-series and MN-series designations? A: The M-series (M2015TX base) represents the obsolete product line, while the MN-series (MN15TX base) represents the active equivalent line from NKK Switches. Both are rocker switch families with comparable electrical and mechanical characteristics.

Q: Is there inventory availability for the substitute part? A: MN15TXG13 has 847 pieces in stock as new original inventory, providing immediate availability for replacement and new applications.
