Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the M2018TYW01-JC is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (SPDT)
• Switch function (Mom-Off-Mom)
• Current and voltage ratings (6A AC / 125V, 3A DC / 30V)
• Mounting type (Panel Mount, Flange)
• Termination style (Solder Lug)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C)
• Mechanical and electrical life specifications
• Regulatory compliance (CSA, UL, RoHS3)

The substitute part MN18TYW01-JC is identified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent from NKK Switches. Both parts share the same base product number series (M/MN18TY) and are manufactured by the same supplier, indicating functional and dimensional compatibility within the NKK Switches product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M2018TYW01-JC is obsolete; therefore, MN18TYW01-JC is the manufacturer-recommended substitute from NKK Switches. Both parts carry identical export classification (EAR99) and tariff codes (8536.50.9065), confirming regulatory alignment.

Selection of MN18TYW01-JC is supported by:

• Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support
• Same manufacturer (NKK Switches), guaranteeing design continuity and quality standards
• Shared base product number series, indicating functional equivalence
• Identical export and tariff classifications, confirming regulatory compatibility

For applications requiring the specific electrical ratings, circuit configuration, and mechanical specifications of the M2018TYW01-JC, MN18TYW01-JC serves as the direct active-production equivalent.
