M2122LCW01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The M2122LCW01 is a toggle switch manufactured by NKK Switches, classified as a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) panel mount switch with illuminated LED indication. This component is rated for 6A at 125V AC and 3A at 30V DC, featuring a standard round actuator with solder lug termination. The product status is obsolete, making identification of equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing maintenance, repair, and system support applications where this switch was originally specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the M2122LCW01 is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part M2122TCW01 maintains identical specifications across all critical selection criteria: circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (On-On), current and voltage ratings (6A/125V AC, 3A/30V DC), mounting configuration (panel mount), actuator geometry (standard round, 14.70mm length), illumination type (LED red at 2.2 VDC), termination method (solder lug), panel cutout dimensions (6.50mm circular), and bushing thread specification (1/4-40). Both components belong to the NKK Switches M2100 series and share identical environmental operating ranges and electrical life ratings. The substitution is based on complete parameter alignment within the M2100 series family, ensuring functional and mechanical interchangeability in applications originally designed for the M2122LCW01.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the M2122LCW01 and M2122TCW01 are classified as obsolete products. Selection between these components should be based on current inventory availability and compliance requirements. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for new system integration or replacement applications. The M2122LCW01 currently has 1113 units in stock, while the M2122TCW01 has 919 units available. For applications requiring panel mount DPDT toggle switches with illuminated LED indication in the specified electrical and mechanical envelope, either part provides equivalent functionality. Component selection should prioritize inventory availability and supply chain considerations given the obsolete status of both options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can M2122TCW01 be used as a direct replacement for M2122LCW01? A: Yes. The M2122TCW01 is a direct equivalent substitute. All electrical parameters (6A/125V AC, 3A/30V DC), mechanical dimensions (panel cutout 6.50mm, bushing 1/4-40), circuit configuration (DPDT On-On), and illumination specifications (LED red, 2.2 VDC) are identical. Both components share the same M2100 series designation and solder lug termination.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution eligibility? A: Substitution eligibility is determined by matching: circuit configuration (DPDT), switch function (On-On), current ratings (6A AC / 3A DC), voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), mounting type (panel mount), actuator specifications (standard round, 14.70mm), illumination type (LED red, 2.2 VDC), termination style (solder lug), panel cutout geometry (6.50mm circular), and bushing thread (1/4-40).

Q: Are there any compliance differences between M2122LCW01 and M2122TCW01? A: No. Both components maintain identical compliance certifications: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these switches? A: Both the M2122LCW01 and M2122TCW01 operate within the range of -10°C to 55°C.

Q: What is the electrical life specification? A: Both components are rated for 25,000 electrical cycles.

Q: Are these components still in production? A: No. Both the M2122LCW01 and M2122TCW01 are classified as obsolete products. Availability is limited to existing inventory stock.
