MB2061SS1W13 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MB2061SS1W13 is a pushbutton switch manufactured by NKK Switches, featuring DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) configuration with 6A AC and 3A DC current ratings at 125V AC and 30V DC respectively. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The switch employs a plunger actuator with PC pin termination and epoxy sealed terminals, designed for panel mount rear installation with a 6.50mm circular cutout.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MB2061SS1W13 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Circuit configuration must be DPDT
• Switch function must be On-Mom (momentary operation)
• AC voltage rating must be 125V minimum
• AC current rating must be 6A minimum
• DC voltage rating must be 30V minimum
• DC current rating must be 3A minimum
• Mounting type must be Panel Mount, Rear
• Actuator type must be Plunger for Cap
• Termination style must be PC Pin
• Panel cutout dimensions must be Circular 6.50mm Dia
• Epoxy sealed terminals required

The 8442AB from APEM Inc. meets all substitution criteria and is classified as an active product, providing continuity for applications currently using the obsolete MB2061SS1W13.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 8442AB is the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete MB2061SS1W13. Both components satisfy identical electrical and mechanical requirements for DPDT momentary pushbutton switch applications at 125V AC and 30V DC operating conditions.

The 8442AB offers additional advantages: active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity, DC current rating of 4A exceeds the original 3A specification, operating temperature range extends to -40°C providing broader environmental tolerance, and electrical life rating of 30,000 cycles surpasses the original 25,000 cycles. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical panel mounting geometry.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 8442AB directly replace the MB2061SS1W13 in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components share identical DPDT circuit configuration, On-Mom switch function, 125V AC and 30V DC voltage ratings, 6A AC current rating, panel mount rear installation, plunger actuator type, PC pin termination, 6.50mm circular panel cutout, and epoxy sealed terminals. The 8442AB meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The 8442AB provides enhanced DC current capacity (4A versus 3A), extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C versus -30°C to 85°C), and superior electrical life (30,000 cycles versus 25,000 cycles). The 8442AB is an active product while the MB2061SS1W13 is obsolete.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The MB2061SS1W13 is supplied with standard packaging, while the 8442AB is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are suitable for integration into production environments.

Q: Do both components meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the MB2061SS1W13 and 8442AB are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code 8536.50.9035.

Q: What is the panel cutout requirement for installation?

A: Both components require a circular panel cutout of 6.50mm diameter for rear panel mount installation.
