M2023SS2W13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The M2023SS2W13 is a toggle switch manufactured by NKK Switches, configured as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) switch with On-Off-On functionality. This through-hole mounted component is rated for 6A at 125V AC and 3A at 30V DC, featuring a standard round actuator with epoxy sealed terminals. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing maintenance, repair, and legacy system support.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M2023SS2W13 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration (DPDT)
• Switch function (On-Off-On)
• Current and voltage ratings (6A/125V AC minimum; 3A/30V DC minimum)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Termination style (PC Pin)
• Panel cutout dimensions (Circular - 6.50mm Dia)
• Operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C)
• Electrical life (25,000 Cycles minimum)

The substitute part MN23SS2W13 from NKK Switches meets these core electrical and mechanical requirements, enabling direct functional replacement in applications requiring DPDT toggle switch operation with identical contact ratings and physical form factor.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The M2023SS2W13 is classified as obsolete. The substitute part MN23SS2W13 is currently active in production and maintains electrical and mechanical equivalence across all specified parameters. Selection of MN23SS2W13 is appropriate for applications requiring DPDT toggle switch functionality with 6A/125V AC and 3A/30V DC ratings in through-hole mounting configurations.

The substitute part is supplied in bulk packaging, whereas the original part number is no longer in active distribution. Both components are manufactured by NKK Switches and comply with applicable regulatory standards (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99 classification).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MN23SS2W13 directly replace M2023SS2W13 in existing circuit boards?

A: Yes. Both components share identical circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (On-Off-On), current ratings (6A AC / 3A DC), voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), mounting type (Through Hole), termination style (PC Pin), and operating temperature range (-30°C to 85°C). Physical form factor and electrical performance are equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The M2023SS2W13 is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The MN23SS2W13 is an active production equivalent from the same manufacturer that fulfills all electrical and mechanical requirements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The M2023SS2W13 original specification does not specify packaging detail, while MN23SS2W13 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.50.9065. The M2023SS2W13 is explicitly ROHS3 compliant. Compliance documentation for MN23SS2W13 should be verified with the manufacturer for specific application requirements.

Q: What electrical life expectancy should be anticipated?

A: Both components are rated for 25,000 electrical cycles minimum, providing equivalent operational longevity in switching applications.
