Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 8436AB from APEM Inc. is the qualified substitute for the obsolete MB2065SS1W13. Selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both components maintain identical SPDT circuit configuration, On-On switch function, and rated electrical parameters (6A AC, 125V AC, 30V DC). The 8436AB provides enhanced DC current capability (4A versus 3A), representing a performance margin above the original specification.

Mechanical Compatibility: Panel mount installation, plunger actuator configuration, PC pin termination, and 6.50mm circular cutout dimensions are identical between both components, ensuring direct mechanical interchangeability without modification to existing panel layouts or PCB designs.

Compliance and Availability: The 8436AB maintains ROHS3 compliance and epoxy sealed terminal construction consistent with the original component. As an active product from APEM Inc., the 8436AB provides assured long-term availability and supply chain continuity, addressing the obsolescence status of the MB2065SS1W13.

Environmental Performance: The 8436AB extends the operating temperature range to -40°C to 85°C and provides increased electrical life rating (30,000 cycles versus 25,000 cycles), delivering enhanced reliability margins for demanding applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 8436AB be used as a direct replacement for MB2065SS1W13 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 8436AB meets all mandatory electrical, mechanical, and compliance requirements. Identical circuit configuration (SPDT), switch function (On-On), current ratings (6A AC), voltage ratings (125V AC / 30V DC), mounting type (Panel Mount, Rear), actuator type (Plunger), termination style (PC Pin), and panel cutout dimensions (6.50mm circular) ensure direct functional equivalence without design modification.

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

A: The 8436AB provides three performance enhancements: DC current rating increased from 3A to 4A, operating temperature range extended from -30°C to -40°C at the lower limit, and electrical life increased from 25,000 to 30,000 cycles. These represent performance margins above the original MB2065SS1W13 specification.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory considerations?

A: The MB2065SS1W13 is supplied in standard packaging with 692 units currently in stock. The 8436AB is supplied in bulk packaging with 861 units in stock. Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification, requiring standard handling procedures.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The 8436AB maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, consistent with the original MB2065SS1W13. Both components are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.50.9035.

Q: Is the 8436AB suitable for applications requiring the full -30°C to 85°C temperature range of the original component?

A: Yes. The 8436AB operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C encompasses and exceeds the original specification, providing additional margin at low temperature extremes.
